I'm not sure we've been *so lucky in matches*

I'm not sure we've been so lucky in matches

We've had the most possession of any team in the division, if not the league and one point from the Derby and Millwall games combined was ridiculous.

The penalty miss at Middlesbrough was properly lucky. Otherwise...?

      - Yes that exactly what I thought (n/m) (NCFC) - emmaroyds, Nov 25, 10:34:09
        
        Me too. They didn’t seem to be that cross about it either, which is always a sign. (n/m) (NCFC) - Under soil heating, Nov 25, 13:55:11
    - True, but goals like that are consistently disallowed (NCFC) - SimonOTBC, Nov 25, 10:17:21
    - And we've had stonewall penalties turned down. (NCFC) - norwaay, Nov 25, 10:14:16
  - Brentford seemed lucky (NCFC) - SCC 28, Nov 25, 09:43:26
    - Late goals aren't lucky - that's attitude not luck. (n/m) (NCFC) - norwaay, Nov 25, 10:15:05
      - And fitness too (n/m) (NCFC) - Old Git, Nov 25, 10:28:38
        
        Yup (n/m) (NCFC) - norwaay, Nov 25, 10:31:22
      - The brentford goal was lucky, not because it was late (NCFC) - SimonOTBC, Nov 25, 10:18:07
        
        Indeed - but Mikey here also mentions late goals. (n/m) (NCFC) - norwaay, Nov 25, 10:20:51
        
        I think people think we’re lucky because we score so many (n/m) (NCFC) - SCC 28, Nov 25, 10:51:04
        
        Yes they probably do - although conversely, I think we can be confident that no-one would (NCFC) - norwaay, Nov 25, 11:02:01
        
        I think he was making the same point as you (n/m) (NCFC) - SimonOTBC, Nov 25, 10:22:47
- We were bang on our xG points before yesterday (NCFC) - SCC 28, Nov 25, 09:37:23
  - Only after it went to 10 men (NCFC) - jamesward, Nov 25, 09:38:38
    - The thing which is misleading about xG is it doesn't take into account quality of players (NCFC) - SimonOTBC, Nov 25, 10:24:39
      - Does xG take into account Hanley airing a free heard 4 yards out? (NCFC) - Dog, Nov 25, 11:02:23
        
        Yes. Of course it does! (n/m) (NCFC) - trafford_canary, Nov 25, 16:50:20
