To succeed, or in our case to survive, they say you need a bit of luck. Last year, Wolves had it, Blackpool didn't. It has been said that luck is not on our side this year; can we survive without it?
You need luck when you really need it.......it still maybe coming. Bad decisions have put us in this place...we are due between 6-9 points on the disalowed goals front. SWP and Clint Hill. But just maybe, we will get that luck back just when we need it....i.e. NOW
I agree. Hopefully luck has turned on our side. After the two slips by Enrique and Vermarlen it looks like it has. We just need a couple of dodgy pens in our favour. I cant believe how lucky Bolton have been recentley. First the goal that never was against us and how they beat Wolves on Saturday is still a mystery to me! Never a pen and Wolves were so unlucky.
That Wolves game really brought home to me the importance of luck; for some crazy reason the ball just would not go in for them, it just wasn't going to be their day no matter what they did.
The kind of luck that comes, as they say, where preparation meets opportunity, seems to have dawned for us of late. The kind they call 'the rub of the green' often follows. The kind of luck that catches (or doesn't) the eye of the officials tends to desert us newbies when playing more established clubs. Unfortunately (good word!) think we can continue to expect the odd 'ref influenced result' in the games to come...
We had the everything that can go wrong did go wrong already this season so hopefully it has changed, we deserve a dodgy pen or laughable sending off for the opposition every week now to make up for it.
It's irrelevant. If our luck changes we will recycle the rubbish spewed forth by pundits that it all evens out over the year. It never has . If it doesn't, we stick two fingers up, say that it was a conspiracy by the PL establishment to do us down and come back in a blaze of glory as champions again next season. You know that luck has little to do with it when the big boys get all the breaks in every game against us minnows. That is how it was, how it is and how it will always be.
A heart attack seems the only way out On a secret signal 4 players drop to their knees and the game gets called off ... we can make a statement that it was a dodgy curry and only heartburn The game gets put off until the end of the season when they have already won it and we get to play the under 12s girls team and win 21- 2 and stay up on goal average ... Aston Villa Wigan and Wolves sink
Can't you leave Fitz alone, bad enough having to watch Ferdinand play sh*te where Gabbi or Fitz should have been. No the Scholes horror tackle will be on de Gea hands, and he'll drop everything else we send at him and win by six.
How about Evra getting a red? I'm not great at remembering games but I do seem to recall Mackie giving him a torrid time (and him getting a bit wound up) in an otherwise disappointing performance earlier in the season. Alternatively, Adel drawing a couple of bad fouls out of the occasionally erratic Rafael. Still think Man U could beat us with 10 so would prefer a red to be reserved for different foes (not that luck works on demand).
We haven't had a lot of luck so far this season, and I don't know if luck is the right word, but all four of our drop colleagues had exactly the result we would have hoped for. Our GD advantage over Blackburn has increased to 5, and remember it was +1 to them before our win over Arsenal. All season long we have experienced a set of circumstances which conspired to prove the old QPR adage; if it can go wrong, it will. Maybe, just maybe, the planets are shifting a little and allowing the sun's light to fall on us for a time. Will it last? Who knows, but if only for a couple more games, we may be in the black; here's hoping!
