The hard luck stories have come thick and fast in recent weeks, but the defiant boss is still adamant that the team must not get demoralized and instead concentrate on making their own luck.
"Of course you've got to have luck sometimes - if the ball goes in off someone's backside, then there has to be an element of good fortune," he said.

"We won't make any luck playing badly, that's for sure.
"But without talking about formations, we'll get that luck by playing as well as we're playing.

"Despite how they must be feeling right now, who's to say it won't be that way?
"If that happens, all the current results will be forgotten."
