Time For A Slice Of Luck
It seems that this season has not seen Saints have a lot of luck on their side, perhaps the final game would be an apt time for that to change.
As fine a season as this has been for Saints I don't think it has been one where we have seen the luck go our way too often in fact quite the opposite, this has been a season where we have had more than our fair share of injuries to key players at vital times and even on this final day we play Manchester City with at least three key players unavailable through injury, Morgan Schneiderlin, Dusan Tadic and Fraser Forster would have all played some part if they were fit with Schneiderlin and Forster guaranteed to start.
So perhaps our trip to the Etihad would be as good a time as any to have a slice of luck or perhaps several, I don't care what it is, thre eof their players sent off perhaps, four dodgy penalties, a dodgy offside last minute winn, im not fussed i just want a slice of luck to go our way for once.
