It got little better than this

I now have two photos, 12 years apart, of players taking and scoring penalties for the team I support, in 2-1 defeats. I was always hoping that Anthony Stokes goal would turn out to be the point at which our post Christmas slump ended. Sadly, it was just as much a dead end as when John Collins equalised against the Brazilians at the 98 world cup.

Nice to see him send the keeper the wrong way though. Maybe if he'd taken a few more, we'd not have missed as many.
