Another club had off by the format change, gutting.

Looked decent from what I seen of him but then looked so small on the penalties. Really crouched low during the pens.
Great effort from Exeter though.

Best to ever do it imo.
If Exeter won on pens and made it to the next round would they have made more money than they would have from losing a replay?

He is less that six foot tall. Wasn’t that Ipswich keeper from the 70’s also short for a keeper? Laurie Sivell (?). Once saved a few pennies in a row iirc.
He, Sivell, was short but wasn't it Paul Cooper who had a rep for saving pens.
According to Wiki Paul Cooper was 6ft ,
Depends who they played and where. And it's a broader argument than one game.

Replays need to come back, the competition is a joke now.
Fa are a disgrace for pandering to the scabs and premier league.
I didn't say he was short, I said that he was a good penalty stopper.
Sorry I should have quoted the person above you who mentioned the short Ipswich keeper, apologies

Yes Paul Cooper was (a) over 6 foot and (b) was the one with the penalty saving reputation, saved 5 out of 7 in 78/79 and 8 out of 10 in 79/80.
Laurie Sivell was mainly Cooper’s understudy and was only 5ft 8ins.
Joe Whitworth is taller than Laurie Sivell!

Havertz out for the season. Goodbye title hopes.
