The Swansea City manager confirmed that David Cotterill will be taken off penalty duties after his second miss of the season against QPR and Dobbie will step up to the plate to take the next one.<\/p>\n
Speaking ahead of the game against QPR, Rogders said \u201cDavid was the number one penalty taker.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019ve spoke with him and reinforced that it\u2019s one of those things that happens in football.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat we have here at the club is a number of penalty takers.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt is important. When you have moments like that in games, especially big games, that can be the difference.<\/p>\n
\u201cI need to give someone else a chance to come in and take the penalties. Stephen Dobbie was our No 2 penalty taker and he can take up the baton.\u201d<\/p>\n
Dobbie himself was more than happy to step up and he added \u201cSince the gaffer\u2019s come in Dave\u2019s been the number one penalty taker and if he wasn\u2019t playing I would take them, so if the gaffer wants to change them it\u2019s up to him.<\/p>\n
\u201cEverybody misses a penalty, you\u2019ve just got to get on with it and try and score the next one.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe goalkeeper made a good save against QPR and it was the same up at Norwich.<\/p>\n
\u201cI took penalties when I was up in Scotland but when you come to a big club like Swansea there are always a lot of good players looking to take them.\u201d<\/p>\n
