...........90 minutes county cup tie all square, straight to penalties. Great game, I was patting myself on the back, nothing could now go wrong.......!!
4-4 on pens, last pair up, essentially sudden death. Home team steps up and as he is just about to kick it, a loud shout of, "you are going to miss" comes from the group of away players standing near the half way line. Sure enough it's a miss. I've no idea who's shouted it but see that a fan/bottle carrier of the away team has joined the huddle and I suspect that it maybe him that has called out.
I had to think very quick but what the heck was the right thing to do?
