    He'll probably have been rinsed by his manager.

    Having just seen the goals from the game, let's hope we haven't used up all of our luck in one game! Two quite extraordinary own goals. The first reminded me a bit of Andy Jordan scoring one for Exeter at Ninian Park, great finish.

    More to the point, sounded like we at least deserved something from the game, even with two bits of fortune. That's how we need to play between now and the end of the season.

    That didn’t sink in initially

    Kitching looked like he was recovering from a night on the tiles.

    Apparently he’s in hot water with his manager after that lukewarm performance

    Kitching will feel he's been fitted up.

    Who was that Brighton player that scored 2 own goals at the CCS.

    Irish I think

    Sent off as well if I recall correctly

    Think they were our first goals of the season as well

    Just imagine if they were not under a 3 window transfer embargo and were able to sign a striker……. Playoffs would have been pretty much on point

    Bulut's signed quite a few strikers. One of them has scored 10 goals this season, 6 of them for Wednesday. I don't think it is guaranteed we'd be miles better off with a striker. Ugbo is seemingly half decent given he has near enough 1 in 2 for Wednesday in 23rd, and Bulut couldn't get anything out of him.

    Great result today but I'm still so angry about Friday I can't get excited. I didn't watch any of it but if you just look at the history books and see the score as a result of 2 OGs then I'm not feeling it....if you know what I mean.

    Glad for all those who made the trip and my mate who sent some clips of the celebrations at the end. I don't even know what fixtures we've got left at CCS but I do hope we see something like the energy they showed today.

    An entertaining game played between 2 very average sides. Our midfield looked slightly more dynamic with the exclusion of Wintle.

    Wintle definitely added dynamism, pace and energy to the midfield when he came on, albeit for a short time.

    Bulut's team rose from the dead a day late on Monday, Fridays team played like they were dead.

    Who made the difference?

    Just because we won doesn’t mean the ref should get let off the hook for a blatant penalty miss.

    I get frustrated at this notion of luck in life, sport, the universe.

    Luck = random events. Therefore random events = luck. Luck, therefore, doesn't exist. There are only random events. It's why betting has nothing to do with luck. It's random events versus probability and because random events f*ck things up, probability can be f*cked up so don't bet unless you can afford to lose. Therefore, for most of us, don't bet.

    All that happened on Monday was a series of random events. Kitching happened to be the conduit. People say "we make our own luck" but we don't. We increase the chances of probability. Which is what Tuerto alluded to in the match thread i.e. get the ball in dangerous areas and you increase the probability of it going in the net.

    Relying on the Kitching factor is not a good tactic however. Much better to increase your chances of scoring by having players who probably (xG) will score! Oh...wait!

    Referees are human random decision machines. In other words, there is subjectivity. Therefore a 'human' referee is no more than a random number (event) generator. They may have bias when deciding a 50:50 decision. It's still random bias though.

    No such thing as luck. Get good at something. You increase your chances of success. There's nothing magical about it.

    I've watched the Ng penalty incident numerous times. I've come to conclusion ref was right. Looked to me that Ng deliberately tried to make contact with the Coventry player's leg, to make it look as if he had been fouled. Not sure there was contact anyway.
