Delighted with the win, was convinced we would lose this one. Really scrappy , dirty, mistake filled stuff but it reminded me a bit of football in the old days with a lot of long balls and physical tussles. We benefited hugely from Luton being dead on their feet in that second half. Some comical attempts at finishing at times but thanks to a moment of class from Torp and the other goals my beer will taste somewhat better tonight 
Always the hope that kills us, although as sky said once the clocks go back, the sky blues move forward
Fingers crossed that is the turning point in the season. So much more belief today. Simms looked like an entirely different player.
oh yeah sorry, Kitching’s defending is exemplary, and he never makes a mistake - my bad!!
Kitching needs time out of the team, he offers nothing
Safe to say I was probably wrong about kitching up to this point atleast .
I really think there is something there , he's got all the attributes to be a good defender apart from his brain
That second half deserves fire whiskyGet the butter*beer out

Didn't work though did it ? Only worked when Kitching & Saka were replaced by Rudoni & Torp. Rudoni at LWB was the inspired substitutionGenius.
Not saying Kitching is any world beater. But he’s better defensively than Binks
If he can cut out the rush of blood , he'd be so much better
Quick glance & thought you meant Eccles !!
I th
You need help or go & support someone else. At 0-2 we were better team.
Well he is. Binks gave Luton their only chance in the second half.

there is something there, maybe a maturity thing, but some time on the side may do him good - he’s cost us too much when he’s played, and that’s not inspiring for those around him either
Binks drive in the second half got us going. No other fucker is willing to run with it until he did
Really enjoyed that second half. I thought we were the better team throughout but it always feels like we have a mistake in us that could undermine all the good play. The second half team should play the next few games. I think players like Simms and Torp need to play themselves into consistent top form and we need to be a bit patient while they do. I loved how the players came over to Singers’ Corner to celebrate the winning goal. That togetherness feels like its been missing of late and it’s good to see signs of it being back. Well played everyone. Special mentions to Haji, our best quality player by a country mile and Eccles, who i think works so hard and does the stuff that enables others to look up and play.
If Kitching does come in, it would imo be for Thomas in the centre.
I wouldn’t want him to be but imo he can’t play the binks role as he lacks the drive on the ball. With a back three you need cbs who can act as fullbacks to drive the team up.
Don’t think Kitching can do it. But would love to be proven wrong by any of the lads.
I wasn't convinced, but was sure it was possible, after us dominating the first half
Need to stick with that second half team and formation. Definitely need some midfield cover in January though, a bit of experience
That was a full 90 minute performance today, like we were used to previously. Unlucky to be down at ht, but no lack of fight and guts, and could have been 2 up before the obligatory Madley penalty against us!! That bloke always has to be centre of attention.
Luton should have been down to 9, how Morris gets away with all his shit amazes me and refs allow it, but they all dropped like stones in tackles or challenges, so glad they fucked off home with nothing.

It’s bloody obvious some of our fans are gutted we’ve lost. Quietest I’ve seen the forum all season and after a win. Says it all.
No. Binks is fine in the left slot of 3 centre backs.
Liam can't cope at this level. Calamitous every match.
P.S Great excitement in the ground today. Even at half time the fans generally stuck with the team.
I thought the ref was very good. Above championship level.
The Oxford game was hardly papering over cracks, we had battered them for the second half like today

Haji Wright is our class player. Enjoy while we got him.
As I thought, we are a better team when Simms and Wright play together, really fancied us today but didn't think we would win it dramatically as we did. Let's hope this makes the players believe more in themselves and go into games with more confidence.
Sheaf getting near to 100% makes a huge difference to us.
Gutted I missed it as mini TGP had a match this morning and then had to take my daughter to a party, but plenty of celebrating the third goal. So missed Leicester last year and this today whilst seeing some crap in the middle.
Yeah, at times today he just oozed class.
Wish he would stop shooting though. He nearly always blazes them so high over the bar. Not even close.
