also I would say good luck is often forgotten and bad luck isn't. Take Robs post above when he talks about the Lambert season, I would say you had a lot of luck with injury time goals, the delaney sending off was soft, a few soft free kicks around the area. But also you could state that you make your own luck.
I must have counted the latest one.. http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=GCOv6TKl6RU This is certainly unlucky .^^^
I agree that we out played them, but the 9 times out of 10, is ridiculous, of the two fixtures we are 0 wins from 2, gonna win the next 18 are we? They came with a plan, rode their luck and restristed us to mostly poor quality chances that need top draw finishing. We were not able to produce that finishing. We may have had the most Shots, more chances and even some good chances, but they also had other chances, some quite good too. Luck, Bah!
We were denied nailed on penalties in both games, and whilst there is no guarantee we'd have definitely scored both of them the chances are that we would have done. Hardly called a free-kick with only the keeper to beat from 12 yards a "poor quality chance"
Only because of the incompetence of the officials, nobody associated with NCFC can be held accountable for that. The ball would have gone in the net had Bikey not handled it, incorrectly disallowed goal in that game as well
Well that's part of my point about luck.Certain penalties not given that would be 90% of the time.I still say both Charlton and Rotherham had a good slice of luck to go away with anything.
You could say we've had a lot of luck, not on the field but off it, with how other results have gone still leaving us top after only 1 point from 2 games
Very fair comment Jungle and I agree with your point. I made an observation regarding our similar 'lack of luck' last year when we were shortchanged whenever we needed a helping hand e.g. Sunderland's run-in particularly. It is football at the end of the day.
