Terrace Talk: Let’s clutch at straws and enjoy the thrills

So much for getting one’s just deserts from Santa. 

The three matches since we last met here have all ended up with the wrong results. We lost a game we deserved to draw; then drew away when we should’ve won; and finally, we drew at home when we ought to have lost.

Not even the most pessimistic of Reds forecast we’d win none of the trio. I suppose we are entitled to be throwing our new Christmas toys out of the pram, given we have been eliminated from (arguably) two of the four trophy-hunts we were still involved in just a week ago.
