    Curse our fortunes. Maybe we should employ a gypsy.

    because we never get deflections, we get good headed goals disallowed, we get opposition players heading it into the ground and looping over our keeper ,we hit the post, we hit cross bars, just let us get some blummin luck for once

    Bad luck has nowt to do with losing eight on the bounce.

    Don't think it's me who needs to get real. I don't think it has anything to do with luck.

    doubt they will do a try before you buy - normally want cash up front for anything ranging for tarmaccin to dodgy building work

    One point off the bottom, totally unacceptable.
    Eagerly looking forward to the season ticket renewals letter, should be a right good old laugh!

    Not having a chimanea (sic) doesn't necessarily make him a bad manager.

    I don't subscribe to this bad luck nonsense.

    As far as I'm concerned piss poor preparation leads to piss poor performance.

    All stems from a shamble of a summer transfer window & trying to play catch up ever since.

    Bad luck? More like bad coaching, and team selection. Winnall on the bench again. LJ is clueless.

    I don't think Yorkshire would let him go. I don't know if he knows much about football but I don't think that's a requirement.

    Well my lad rang me on his way back tonight and all he talked of was how unlucky they were tonight and he certainly is not a LJ fan, however what does he know, he only actually goes to the games unlike some who always seem have plenty to say

    Just got back and have to say we didn't deserve that at all. A draw would have flattered them, we've had a perfectly good goal disallowed and they should've had at least three sent off (Addison, right back and the bloke who's tackle on Smith was worse than Long's on their Oscar nominee).

    Haven't got the energy to do a full run down but players gave their all in the face of officiating that can only be described as disgracefully inept or corrupt.

    Hammill's second half performance was phenomenal - could barely walk at the end, just hope he can recover for Saturday.

    Can't help but think that with Sam up front instead of Toney we'd have come away with three points regardless of the luck factor though.
