Did you know that in the world of coaching, the word UNLUKY, is banned. It is generally considered bad technique. I only mention this because you keep trying to justify your rather poly view and Rovers' run as being purely down to luck and not to do with the way we set up.

Hopefully we'll set up differently on Saturday and give Millwall a game. Or will it just be unlucky if we lose?

Now imagine if we win the next 5 games. Would you say that we were lucky?

Open your eyes man.
Just back to this one as I was saying. We will win this and get at least a draw & win in the next few games.
It was always going to change. This result was coming. The slight deflection on Dacks shot that wasnt going in was the specific type of 'luck' I was referring to.
Of course I never said it was all down to luck. But sometimes in football that is all it takes. Sometimes you get the luck, like today. Sometimes you dont. Like Reading on Tues.
We played very well in both games.
We where only ever losing by one goal. The difference between winning and losing at this level with almost all the teams being a similar standard is tiny. We just had a bad run. Now we will go on a good run.
Nobody will mention Gallaghers transfer fee this evening. And in a few weeks Mowbray will go back to being an okay manager again.
