Rival watch

My comment said being awarded the pen is the luck, of course the foul itself isn't luck, but when it happens to us there's another body in the refs view and its not given! You have to admit you've had extraordinary luck at times during the last 12 months. No need to be so prickly about it, its just a fact!

I've not seen anything about it and its just occured to me, why are you playing 3 times in the 1st week and why not on tv? is it to make up for when the Supercup game is?

 

Yes, we play the Super cup a week Friday so we played that weekend's game tonight, haven't a scooby why it wasn't on TV tbh. Maybe because CL games were on

 

Radio 5 live and the Reading manager is gutted that the third 'goal' was allowed to stand,totally right. Bloody wake up Drogs,your team isn't skillful,it's lucky.

 

Here

Yep. 72% possession. 27 shots on goal. So lucky...

 

Blinkered beyond belief. We had 2 fair shouts for a penalty not given v Wigan and 1 against Reading.

We throughly deserved to win both games and most true football fans would hold their hands up and admit that

 

Still don't get it do you?

I have not once said the offside goal was not lucky.

 

I would call 2 out of 27 unlucky - or poor finishing, to be honest Reading were far more effective in goals per shots than their lucky opponents,according to the stats; 1 in 10.35 is a lot worse than 1 in 3.5.

Are you really sure about that 72% (http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/19279583) as some might disagree?

 

Reading equalise with their first shot on goal and then take the lead from a Cech error that he would not repeat if in the same situation 1,000 times, have 28% possession and are unlucky to lose. Chelsea have 72% possession, manage to score 4 goals from the 27 shots on goal but that's lucky.


Strange logic

 

2 goals in 27 shots isn't lucky, it's awful (1 in 13.5) compared to Readings 1 in 3.5.

Are you sure about that 72% possession as others think differently (http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/19279583).

 

Spot on Luke. Decisions will have gone for and against teams but of the 11 PL games played so far there have been no wins that haven't been deserved on the balance of play

 

Spot on DL, some people just can't look past hatred.

 

Well put LDL

 

A United follower siding with 2 Chelsea followers and trying to justify lucky decisions, now there's a thing

 

Don't get us started on goal line technology

 

It's sad really. When hatred taints your view of the game. This seems common with a certain contingent

 

Oh do piss off

From the guy that thinks Hughes is better respected than AVB.

 

In England he is. Throughout Europe, well that's another matter.. For another thread perhaps

 

For another board maybe. I'll ask Mick to create a nonsense board

 

C'mon I am biased. Hughes is a boyhood Blue and ex-Chelsea player

 

72% possession? So what when so many attacks broke down? Bollox Luke.
