Hmmm Luton. Not even a league team a few years ago but now above us in the ladder. What went right with the Hatters? and are we bothered so long as we get three points?
Crystal Ball Glazing anyone?

We are due a win, so I'm going for 2-0

Not expecting a high scoring game. 1-0.

Sad that in any other season this would be a match between two mid table sides battling for a top six place. 15 pts v 17.
Luton are relatively free scoring but have conceded twice as many as us so Andy’s stats probably point to a 2-3 defeat.
Let’s hope they’re wrong...1-1.

Well I was half right we scored 2 goals, but our defence and keeper fall down on their duties, a draw which should have been a win!
Typical Derby its the hope that kills you!

If only we had someone who could cross a ball

That's four points in Dusty Bin in a few days!!

Ultimately disappointing last night...both in terms of another two points dropped and the unnecessary nature of their goals.
Having said that there was much to be impressed about. Every player gave everything for the cause and the crowd were virtually all behind them with very little in the way of moaners and wrist-slashers.
Thought Morrison and Byrne were the standouts. Really impressed by Morrison...a real football brain and the skills to go with it and, imo, Byrne barely put a foot wrong despite being hugely disadvantaged, in terms of size, by a big and powerful Luton side.
The commitment was truly encouraging. Lawrence may be the official captain but the leadership from the likes of Davies and Shinnie was obvious.
Not sure about some of the subs...we seemed to lose our way when Morrison went off and lost any threat when Lawrence dropped deeper but overall, no lack of effort but please, please, please let’s do some work on free kicks, corners and basic crosses because, two obvious errors apart, that’s what let us down last night.
P.S. How annoying was their manager? I was sitting about thirty feet away from him...excitable doesn’t begin to cover it. Thought he might have some sort of condition.

Tourettes??

Perhaps...or just (angry) little man syndrome. Either way...he made Rooney look like the personification of ‘calm’.Originally Posted by Geoff Parkstone
