    Morts could take a decent penalty. No idea what his stats were but he was pretty good.

    Remember him hitting the post against Derby after sending the keeper the wrong way - and the bloke next to me was up in arms shouting - “but that was the perfect penalty!”

    Well it wasn’t mate cos he missed.

    Unfortunately Morts record is somewhat blemished by the missed penalty at home to Forest in 1998/99, that probably cost us our place in the PL, as it would have given us five wins on the spin.

    Bugger.

    Reid.
    Buyens.
    Curtis.
    Bent.
    Mendonca.

    Reid arguably the best.

    Buyens. He never looked like missing one.

    Only one way to answer this debate....anybody have the STATS of the penalties each taken, scored, missed? 

    I might have some free time at work on Friday!

    Lawrie Madden.  The power, the height... 

    The only one I saw that rivalled his legendary effort v Newcastle was Konchesky at Upton Park, at least there was a stand behind the goal to stop that one. Maddens one has just passed Neptune on its way to Pluto.

    Bob Curtis scored 20 penalties.
    Mark Reid scored 8 penalties in a season,15 goals in his Charlton career,not sure of how many penalties.
    No record of missed penalties,although i remember both players missed at least one,against Preston [Curtis] Palace [Reid]

    I think Redfearn might have been against Blackburn? I know both him and Mortimer missed penalties that season. Redfearn’s was a double whammy for me as I had £20 on him as first goal scorer.

    Redfearns was against forest, sure Mark Crossley was in goal and saved it.

    You are right. Who did Mortimer miss against? I think he hit the post. 

    Edit - it was against Leeds

    Forget just Charlton, I think Buyens is one of the best ever, never even saw the keeper go the right way when he took them
