"Although Alan Martin is now one of our most promising youg goalkeeping talents he can't shake his old love for scoring goals. The 20-year old has adopted the role of penalty taker with Accrington Stanley after his loan move from Leeds. He added "I still train outfield once a week with the Leeds squad, the Under-19's or the reserves. Kicking the ball about is brilliant. I was named the new penalty taker at Accrington earlier this season. The other boys weren't happy about it. However, we've had three games without a penalty since then so I haven't had the chance to score yet. When we finally get a spot-kick I need to make sure the ball doesn't rebound. I will have one hell of a run back up the park if the other team counter-attack"
