Corrigan, Joe I was runner-up in the Penalty Prize competition of 1971 the final of which was held in Wembley Stadium. Joe Corrigan was one of the goalkeepers for that competition that day. In front of a 100,000 capacity crowd I scored 6 out of 6 against Joe but in the sudden-death shoot-out I hit the crossbar with the only penalty I took against Bill Glazier. Thanks Bill :-)
