Langley Wishes for Spot-Kick Duties
Cardiff City's Jamaican midfielder Richard Langley wants to take over spot-kick duty at Ninian Park, following Rob Earnshaw's missed penalty against Bradford City last Saturday.

The former QPR man reacted quickly to head home the rebound, but now wants to take penalties himself, despite Graham Kavangh also a keen spot-kick taker for the Bluebirds.

"Rob and Graham Kavanagh have been taking it in turns to take our penalties," said Langley.

"Kavanagh says he's taking the next one, but we'll see about that.

"I took a few at Queens Park Rangers, so I will be practising them on the training ground and I will try and set myself in the running to take one."
