Kaiastuart Posted February 28, 2020 Report Share Posted February 28, 2020 I was thinking to myself for a while that Brophy has a very strong penalty record. In fact I can't remember him ever missing, and I think only once having a kick saved? I can't find more information online, but what do folk remember? I'm also interested how he compares to other killie forwards, as I'm too young to remember some of the greats of the club (other than Boyd etc). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Killjoy1869 Posted February 28, 2020 Report Share Posted February 28, 2020 Brophy penalty technique is similar to Pail Wright. I never had confidence in him either when he stepped up...but he usually did the business. I only recall Tam Black, Boyd and Naisy missing one each...although I may be mistaken. Gus had a 100% record 1/1 i remember Bobby Williamson and McCluskey both missing away to Hamilton and then Mavis took over from then. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killieblue Posted February 28, 2020 Report Share Posted February 28, 2020 Pretty sure Brophy has a 100% score rate from the spot for us so far. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skygod Posted February 28, 2020 Report Share Posted February 28, 2020 According to Transfermarkt, Brophy has scored nine penalties for us and one for Accies, with no misses. I don’t remember Mark Reilly being a regular penalty taker but could be wrong. Tommy McLean must have had a very high conversion rate. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

livvy Posted February 28, 2020 Report Share Posted February 28, 2020 Did Tom Black not go a decade without missing one only to pretty much hit the scoreboard in a game against the club formerly known as Rangers? Sure it was towards the Moffat end, first season at the new RP. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes it's better to put the ball down the middle as the goalies always look to go to a side. It's logic no Goalkeeper will ever dtay in the middle of there goal for a pen. Unless there afraid to get their knees dirty. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Riccarton Bluebell Posted February 28, 2020 Report Share Posted February 28, 2020 Tommy McLean was the master at placing the ball into the net. George Maxwell hit the ball with power into the net. Both were great. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it was a 2-2 draw and we scored twice in the last 10 mins. Was maybe Sammon who equalised right at the end? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
