    I hope they don't! Also Luton's pitch seems small to me too but that might just be an illusion from the small stands around it. I think Robins, when he named an unchanged line up yesterday, got a bit sucked in by a combination of our recent success and having one eye on Fulham at the weekend...

    One of the dangers from tonight is how much other teams learn from this. Our back 5 have looked so slow and uncomfortable under pressure. If other teams decide to adopt the same tactic we're going to have to have a re-think on the way we build from the back.

    Cannot believe we are persisting with playing the ball short from the back against this press. Moronic.

    They've been extremely clinical too though. 4 goals from 4 shots. Compare that to O'Hare's shank from our best chance.

    We need to maximise revenues as a club. They should make this halftime team talk PPV. I'd pay an extra fiver to watch Robins slapping the defence while Viveash holds them in a headlock.

    Have to say I'll be impressed if Luton are able to play with this intensity all match. Their midfield commit forward but are back in shape in no time. Just haven't coped with it.

    Might as well get Sheaf some minutes in his legs ready for the weekend now and then Rose for Clarke-Salter who looks punch drunk.

    Only thing that's worse than the ref are the camera angle and their floodlights.

    First goal outside the box Bad tackle on O'Hare Clothes line on Hamer Letting them head over and calling it back for a booking on Hamer which they score from. We've been awful but that's a lot of woeful decisions to pack into the first 15 minutes of a match.

    Initial contact was miles outside the area. Not even close. He's already started his dive here and the contact is over. Stupid decision to make contact though, Fadz was covering and they had no-one in the box.

    Gykoraes to be in Sweden squad

    Sweden seem to have a lot of wingers and back up strikers playing in the Middle East. You'd think an extended period of form in the Championship would mean he gets some serious consideration by the November European qualifiers

    Was looking at that picture earlier and makes you realise how young he still is. Proper baby face!

    For me the low point was the 1-2 Sheffield United game at home in the L1 relegation season. The whistling, the pitch invasion, the 87th minute winner for them. There had been some worse performances and results prior to that, but this one felt like rock bottom to me. The team that day...

    That's almost right. They've scored first in 2/7 games. They've only managed one first half goal so far this season though, first game away at QPR, so are yet to be leading at HT. They've still scored in all games but their last one though, a 0-0 at Swansea. Let's hope for a blistering start...

    Phil Upton exlusive

    I can't stop watching this clip. Highly recommend everyone watches again and just focuses on her right eyebrow, the range of movement is absolutely mesmerising. It's got even less positional sense than Dacosta.

    Dangerous tactic when you're already on a yellow. If the ref doesn't give it, you're off.

    Match Thread Warnock’s delusional?

    Pen for me. The reason Dabo goes down is he starts marginally behind Ikpeazu and then tries (and fails) to get his left arm across him to slow him down. Ikpeazu is just too strong in that situation, Dabo bounces off him and when he goes down he then clips Ikpeazu who goes down too. It's clumsy...

    Currently with the lawyers who are deciding if tricking Bright into signing a letter of re-signation is watertight or not.

    Used to got there as a 16 year myself in the 90s and enjoyed treating myself to a couple of bottles of Newcastle Brown in there on a Friday night. Well i say enjoyed but it was horrible stuff. And i say treated, but it was all i could afford! Then I'd be on trolley duty in Sainsbury's Trinity...
