The Wigan manager went on at great lengths following his teams victory last Sunday about Luck... Personally I didn't see it that way, however perhaps that is just my nature.
One thing for sure reading the latest news about young Newcastle full back Massadio Haidara the Football Gods have again been kind to this bunch of Toon players.
The following from The Mirror:
Horror-tackle victim Massadio Haidara could play again this season.
Newcastle's French full-back has had a lucky escape, avoiding by mere fractions an injury which could have kept him out for close to a year.
Haidara's knee-cap "popped out" in the toe-curling tackle by Wigan's Callum McManaman on Sunday, then sprung back into position, causing severe pain and bruising.
But the 20-year-old's age and previous good injury history means he is likely to be out for weeks rather than the nine-month lay-off a dislocated knee-cap would have caused.
Haidara was at the Geordies' training ground on Wednesday to see his team-mates, and to get a plan for his recovery.
He will have a fresh scan next week, when the swelling had gone down.
Haidara said: "I am getting better. I want to thank all fans for their messages of support. It really touches me."
