penalties and tap ins don't count

Seriously, tap ins count because it is a quality being in the right spot but penalties do distort figures.

Also, being the penalty taker and scoring them takes a certain amount of balls, something that should be rewarded rather than discounted, especially as a lot of players won't take them!!
Whilst I agree it takes balls, penalties should be shown separately as they distort the figures. When I played, I took penalties, it wasn't because I had balls, it was because it bumped my goals total up and made me look better. If you miss one, people soon forget it but at the end of the season five penalties can lift your total goals from 18 to 23 & get you the Top Goalscorer trophy.
Maguire made a big thing about being top scorer last season but it was only because he took penalties and again this season Maguire (2), Nuhui (2) & Keane have all benefited. From memory, McLean got loads of penalties.
When I played up front I refused the penalty kicks so that the others had a chance of catching me in the top scorers table
Come to think of it, when I played Left Back I also refused the penalty kicks so that others could keep up with me in the goal scoring table
As for 'tap-ins'
I refused to score from inside the penalty area unless I had beaten at least 5 men a proper goal has to be from at least 25 yards 
and for that extra bit of class, clip the apex of the the bar and goal post on its way in

List updated with Maguire's goal from last night, so he joins Nuhiu on 17.

Where's Barry's latest
It's not as though its a big job to update the goals that we actually score each game

So PEI's love grandchild has now drawn level with Coke but is still one behind the legendary JOC

Updated after the game at Rovrum. Nuhiu moves level with Brunty and Antonio, and Lee & Lavery both draw level with Franny Jeffers!!!!
