According to this website, Manhoef's orbit-bound open-goal rebound in the first half had an xG rating of 0.82 i.e. a normal player would typically score the chance 82% of the time. www.fotmob.com/en-GB/matches/west-brom-vs-stoke/2xthw2#4519507:tab=statsTo give you an idea of how extraordinarily high this number is, Grant's goal had an xG rating of 0.51, despite being a straightfoward-looking header virtually on the goalline. I can't recall seeing a worse miss by a Stoke player in terms of xG. Are there any stats people who can? Is tachyon still around? |

Thorne v Liverpool in the the 8-0 massacre.
He had the chance to put us 1 up and we got battered after.

I heard the name 'Gary Brooke' mentioned for the first time in about 30 years That and 'The Keith Scott collection' were probably worse. I saw that big, daft bastard miss a few open goals from a yard or two out. |

I just watched it back with xG 0.82 in mind.
Does that mean he should score from there 82% of the time?
He only had a split second to sight it and it bobbled up and hit his shin I think.
Converesely I don't see how Grant could have missed that goal line header with xG 0.51 even if he tried.

That’s absolute bollocks, it came at him fast. He didn’t do amazingly with it but we’re not talking Ronnie Rosenthal |

Such shit stats weren’t around at the time but if you want 2 worse misses, see Gary Bannister v Ipswich (I think) or Dave Bamber v Oldham! |

Pretty harsh that. It came back at him at a right rate of knotts.
That said, he was largely dreadful today.

I heard the name 'Gary Brooke' mentioned for the first time in about 30 years I can still see that as clear as day burned into my mind. You don't forget that shit in a hurry. It took a special kind of wankness for Brooke to miss that. A rare talent. |

I think it would of ended up being flagged offside Right in line with it,was shocked the flag didn't go up, I don't think it would have been given and would have been highly controversial |

I wouldn't say Big Daves was a horrendous miss. It was on target, the ball just got stuck in the mud. |

Dave Regis at Port Vale in the cup. I wouldn't say Big Daves was a horrendous miss. It was on target, the ball just got stuck in the mud. I like Dave, always have. But the ball on that occasion rolled into his path, 6 yards out with keeper nowhere and hi “effort” didn’t even reach the goal. |

There was an Anglo Italian game at the Vic, can't remember who against,with about 3000 there Lou played 433 with Regis,Carruthers and Tony TK Kelly up top Between them we must have had 20+ one on ones with just one being on target,we won 1.0 It was horrific The advertising hoarding next to the goal at The Stoke End broke in two after successive shots were hammered into it |

Due entirely to the mud Game was on Sky, absolutely no way that match would have been played otherwise Edit: pretty sure Regis shot from outside the box,edge of the box at a push |

Laces through it would've sufficed but that great big dirty puddle of Burslem slop did for big Dave. |

Martin Carruthers missed about 3 one on ones v Barnsley. I can remember his confidence was so low that on one occasion, when he had an open goal, he decided to run with the ball over the line from about 15 yards instead of instantly burying the ball into the net. |

Kevin Harpers penalty miss at the Boothen End ranks as one of the worst misses I've seen at SCFC! The ball not only flew up and over the bar, it just kept rising & rising! Some say it's still to return from orbit!
