Matt Le Tissier. 97.9% success rate from the spot is ridiculous.

statistically you can argue that Graham Alexander's 77/83 is better than le tissier's 49/50

They have Graham Alexander and Matt LeTissier as 2nd and 3rd respectively
A former Cardiff player is in 5th - can anyone guess who

Id counter argue that by saying that Le Tissier was taking them against better goalkeepers than Alexander was plus he has the better conversion rate

yeah it's a difficult comparison even if there weren't other variables like level being played at.
it also isn't clear cut that a goalkeeper at a higher level will be necessarily better at saving penalties as it's only part of their skill set
Re: Best Pelenty Taker in the Uk Leagues
there is one more former Cardiff player in the top 100 penalty takers can you guess who?

Is nothing sacred? Where's Pikey on the list? He only missed about one.
