    Fader Vår

    Fader Vår som är i Himmelen.
    Helgat varde Ditt namn.
    Tillkomme Ditt Rike.
    Ske Din vilja, såsom i Himmelen
    så ock på Jorden.
    Vårt dagliga bröd giv oss idag
    Och förlåt oss våra skulder
    såsom ock vi förlåta dem oss skyldiga äro
    och inled oss icke i frestelse
    utan fräls oss ifrån ondo.
    Ty Riket är Ditt och Makten och Härligheten
    i Evighet.

    That's easy for you to say Tommy.

    A short time ago in a match against Sheff Wed, our beloved men in red were winning 2-0 and had just been awarded a penalty. It did not end well. I only mention it since it is a wonderful example of how fortunes can change in a very short space of time. Let's hope things change as much and in such an unlikely fashion again tonight.

    Ive long thought that in many ways that week was the turning point in the season.

    I think the Saturday before we'd drawn at Rotherham, coming from behind and then in the last minute had a shot hit the post, but stay out. At Wednesday Tomlin's penalty would have put us 3-1 up, and  back then that would probably have sealed the win, but he hit the post and it stayed out. The following Saturday, again in the last minute Tomlin hit the bar, and again it stayed out and we drew 1-1.

    in another season those three shots would have gone in off the woodwork, we'd have come away with 8 more points and would probably have maintained our momentum, even though we weren't playing brilliantly at the time.

    I know it's ifs and buts, but on such small margins success and failure often hinge.

    I know it doesn't excuse some of LJ's selections and tactical decisions, but I don't think we've benefitted from much luck over the past few months, other than being lucky we weren't stuffed on a few occasions!

    My sons skyped us during the first half so couldn't follow this thread but saw 39 new posts on the MDT, so expected the worst.

    On opening up the thread I see we are drawing 0-0. OK might not be playing brilliantly, and might not have been posing a goal threat. However, we are not losing and it looks like Lj has made a couple of positive changes at half time.

    I wonder what some fans expect. WE have been on an appalling run and the most important thing right night is to get a positive result ( win or draw) Of course we would all want the team playing great attacking football, but I can easily imagine the reaction on here if we had come out, all guns blazing with umpteen shots on goal but come in one or two behind!
