Pre Season Friendly last week ended Stevenage 5 Braintree Town 1.
Stevenage were awarded Four penalties, most that I can ever remember is a team getting Two in a game. Sure there have been three in a game for one team before now but Four must be very very unusual.
Stevenage only converted two out of the four.

Stevenage continue to be the luckiest team in the football league

I wasn't aware that Colin West had come out of retirement?

Delving into my very dim and very distant memory, I recall John Wark scoring a hat trick of pens for Liverpool years ago. In fact didn’t our very own Joshua achieve the same feat for gillingham a couple of seasons ago?

Great recall Kokomo, 3 penalties in 9 minutes vs Scunny in 2017. First time a player had scored 3 pens in a game for 60 years.

The Rangers FC were awarded 4 penalties against St Mirren last season. Didn't even raise an eyebrow here where referees are not unknown to give The Rangers FC a wee helping hand when times are tough

Martin Palermo missed three penalties in a Copa America game for Argentina at the end of the 90s or start of the 00s.

I played in a game a few years ago that we lost 7-0 and the other team had 4 penalties, scored 3 and missed 1. The same player gave away all 4 pens
They should have had a 5th pen late on too (same guy again), almost certain the ref didn’t give it as he felt sorry for him
