Had that pen gone in then it would have effected all events there after. We may have lost all our subsequent games had that pen gone in! Holt wouldn''t have been taking the other pens and Wes could have missed 1 or 2 effecting other results. I''m sure you could look back at lots of other events and say if only.

Chunky Norwich 0 Posted April 30, 2011 One versus QPR more important (we''d be 2 points off them!) BUT we analyse every single Norwich game but never QPR or Cardiff or Swansea. Cardiff may well have missed match-winning penalties or conceded 95th-minute equalisers. It evens itself out over the season Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

OTBC 0 Posted April 30, 2011 God dammit, has no one considered if we had won every game then we''d already been promoted. Lambert, Wes, Holty, NCFC collectively you are a disgrace for not winning every game, scoring from every attack, stopping the opposition from ever scoring.

CDMullins 435 Posted April 30, 2011 Ssssssssssh, were not allowed to mention that, it was Wes''s fault. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gingerpele 0 Posted April 30, 2011 Where is the analysis on every other mistake made by Wes and other NCFC players? What about all the shots Holt, Martin and Jackson have hit off target? Or all the goals Ruddy has let in? Or all the mis placed passes, or all the lost headers. EVERY mistake has a consequence, one missed penalty is just one mistake, yes it gets more coverage because footballers shouldn''t be missing penalties, but they do.

Canarino 0 Posted April 30, 2011 People only remember set pieces and penalties because they are "events". What about other moves in other games, where we might have won a ball, or could have made a better pass (or vice-versa)? It''s also about the performance all through the season, not just at the business end. I think it''s good that Holt is now taking pens as he looks rock-solid. Perhaps it was meant to be.

grantroederdisaster 0 Posted April 30, 2011 Yeah if we wouldn''t of failed to beat Doncaster at home!If Holt hadn''t been unfairly sent of at Reading!If Millwall wouldn''t of equalized in the last kick of the game at the New Den!If Hoolahan would of scored the penalty he missed at QPR!If we had rightly got a penalty and scored when Russell Martin got pulled back in the box at Hull!If our complete domination of home games against Pompey and Hull would of seen us score early on we''d of probably won them instead of lost them! We''d of probably won the ruddy League!All ifs and buts, every team has them, fortunately most of ours have been positive ones like all the last gasp winners this season!All we must concentrate on now is winning on Monday night then things will still be in our hands!

Making Plans 929 Posted April 30, 2011 Just one isolated incident in a season full of incidents.To try & analyse anything/everything & come to the conclusion that it either got us promoted or prevented us from getting promoted is futile. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Josh 0 Posted April 30, 2011 If Holt hadn''t missed those decent chances against Swansea and Watford away......Besides, Wes scored the opening goal in the next game v Leicester after his pen miss v Preston. With his head too! He had a point to prove which I believe affected the Leicester game, so football swings in roundabouts really. Didn''t he win us a point v Hull too shortly after? Don''t think we''d be where we are in the table without Wes! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GJL Mid-Norfolk Canary 1,655 Posted April 30, 2011 Just remember that we''ve had 3 (4?) penalties since then all of which have been scored by Holt.....whos''s to say that had Hoolahan had scored that penalty ,he may have gone on to miss a subsequent penalty in another game. Also remember that there were still 20 mins left in the game against Preston to have won that match....including a chance for Wilbraham in the last couple of mins when he blazed into the side netting from six yards out with only the keeper to beat !!

CDMullins 435 Posted April 30, 2011 This has been done to death, hes obviously a good footballer and we''d miss him.But......He''s no where near as good as people on here make out.All this ''Wessi'' and ''unplayable'' stuff is bollox.Messi is actually unplayable hence him scoring over 50 goals this season in La Liga the champions League and playing international football.Wes is doing non of them and never will im afraid.

CDMullins 435 Posted April 30, 2011 For the final time, If he was as good as you or another poster on her thinks he is,Why last season was he playing 3rd tier football, why this season is he in the 2nd tier? Why can he not get into the Ireland squad?My comparison to Messi was based on the fact that he is suppose to be ''unplayable'' I was compaing his unplayableness to Messi 50+ goals this season.
