Ex-Notts Player Signs For...

[LeftPeg_Pie]

I wonder what the response would have been if Scott didnt score his pen....

From me, exactly the same. Scott clearly has a couple of go to penalties (that we’ve seen) given the Wrexham and Wembley evidence presented to us.

On the face of it, Scott’s penalty looks ‘the worst one’. It’s head down and roll in. But there’ll be all sorts of analysis that goes into it. Look at Fitzsimons;

Goes right for Macca; incorrect.

Stands for Ruben - This clearly shows they know Ruben tries to do a goalie early and then go opposite, but RF can’t figure it. Ruben took what, 11 pens during the season, that’s masses of evidence.

Goes left for Jones; correct but too good a pen.

Goes left for Bostock; incorrect.

At this point, whoever goes fifth is probably thinking, based on some analysis, that RF probably won’t go left three times in a row. He goes right, Scott goes where he goes and we go up. But Scott, who the staff know will probably (not 100% certain, of course) be on the pitch at this point, can also comfortably take pens both ways. Makes him an ideal fifth.

In fairness for the Rodrigues penalty, he normally did a faint so he was waiting for that, except RR had missed his last couple I believe so he just hit it this time bamboozling him as he was waiting for the faint

Absolutely agree. Ruben knows that his ‘go to’ has fluffed a couple of times so nails it. That kills RF.

Bostock, given what he did for the equaliser, has that much confidence in his ability that anything other than doing that, probably makes him less easy with it.

That beats a Panenka hands down, a penalty taker who faints!

............. That penalty shootout was as stressful as it gets, but I only remember the heroes. Luke Williams for bringing Archie Mair on, Mair for his brilliant saves, Macca, Ruben and Jodi for their clinical finishes and Cedwyn for excorsising the ghost of Wrexham. I still get nervous when I watch the replays!

Absolutely, hopefully today's younger Notts supporters will remember that day like older supporters remember the Warnock finals, days to remember for the rest of our lives!!!

He did though. So we can say that Bostock was otherwise the best player on the field, we'd have never even reached that point without him and it meant Cedwyn getting to take the winning kick after what happened in the Wrexham game, so I'm glad he did it.

Bostock to Solihull

Bostock to Solihull

Pleased for him - still wish he was at Notts

[Smigpie]

And quite local to his home, that must be a factor. Best of luck John.

Bostock to Solihull

Glad to hear John Bostock has found himself a club that works for him and his family. One of the undeniable heroes and will be able to provide the experienced gained in our promotion season to help Solihull make that next step up.
