Keep Taking The Pens Wardy

A poll on this site has come down in favour of Elliott Ward being City's main penalty taker.

With Aron Gunnarsson saying that he would like to take penalties, something Ward said was "a joke", we asked who do you think should take the penalties.

37.1% said that Elliott Ward, who scored from a penalty against Queens Park Rangers on Saturday, should have the duty.

Popular Icelander Aron Gunnarsson polled 35.2% of the votes with an option of anyone who fancies it on the day polling 27.6%.

"Aron was just winding me up before hand saying he was going to fight me, but it was a joke and we had a good laugh before the game," said Ward to the CT.




On his penalty on Saturday, the centre half said:"I have mixed my penalties up a couple of times and I knew Paddy Kenny was going to dive the way he did and that I had an open goal,so it was it disappointing to miss an open goal.

"But I knew exactly what I was doing on Saturtday and unfortunately for their keeper, his hand wasn't strong enough. I made sure there was plenty of power and the fans were cheering before it even went over the line,so that was good enough for me."
