This Might Make You Feel Better
My record in my last 30 matches stands at 10/5/15 and I'm currently on a run of four straight defeats. One of three things have happened.
1) I've suddenly become a below average coach.
2) I've been getting terrible dice.
3) I've been getting some very poor dice, but also made some small mistakes (and a couple of big ones) that have cost me big time.
I'm leaning towards option 3 and I'll tell you what I'm going to do about it. I'm going to keep playing BB and try to avoid making those small mistakes, whilst simultaneously hoping my dice improve. If you're on a bad run, don't just look at the dice. Good luck all.

Ah well said, and stick at it, you’ve got a few wins in you yet : )
Congrats on the BBT7 run(s) impressive results

Everyone goes on these runs. We'll run into bunch of games filled with poor dice. It eventually gets in our head and starts affecting our play, making us question some lines that should be obvious, but some past dice result leads us into the wrong decision. Escaping these runs and pulling ourselves is no easy task... another reason why people shouldn't underrate the mental aspect of Blood Bowl.
I'd also list one of the reasons being (and correct me if I am wrong) that you've played below tier1 teams. No matter how great coach, winning with those teams will be harder than with the likes of Orcs and Undead. :)

I guess a combination of bad dice, not playing tier 1 teams, and early games with new teams generally more prone to bad dice due to lack of skills and rrs.
Some time ago, with old ruleset, I dropped from Legend to Star, so for sure bad streaks of dice happen. Also, they can tilt you and make you play worse due to frustration.
Just a matter of time and patience, distribution will fix your dice eventually.

Have you thought about retiring? I’m having a great time

No, because I still enjoy it overall, even if dice are rough, or I play poorly.
