    Fans forum with Mark Robins tonight

    Has he considered resigning Frank Moussa considering our lack of creativity, particularly with Andreu' s injury.

    Blackpool FC up for sale

    While agreeing that the Oystons seem completely despicable people, when they leave Blackpool the club's infrastructure will still be in place. When Sisu go it is probable we will have no ground, no training ground and no academy. All things they are responsible for losing and major areas for new...

    You could be right! Might have got the two transfers mixed up.

    Martin Johansen

    Jose Perdomo was on loan for a few games and really looked the part. I remember him playing at Villa Park and running the show.

    Disagree. Alderson came through the youth system and when he first broke into the team he was played as a winger. Only later on did he play as a striker. When Stein and Hutch arrived, we were transformed that season playing wonderful football until Wolves knocked us out of the Cup in the 6th...

    I think that might have been against Newcastle. He had a heavily bandaged leg, could hardly walk but still managed to head home a far post header at the West End. The game was televised but can't find it on YouTube.

    Stewards at the CCFC-WBA game

    I went to the game with my son and a friend. We paid on the gate and were given tickets for seats which weren't together. Should we have sat in three different parts of the block? When we came out of the stadium we had to pass through an arc of stewards who looked like they were marshalling a...

    Colin Stein's only English club was Coventry. Therefore if he didn't cut it in England, he didn't with us. That simply isn't true. Stein was a class player for us forming a formidable partnership with Brian Alderson and playing his part in one of the most exciting Coventry teams I have seen. The...

    I really liked Dublin, great player for us and probably, along with Oggy, the reason we survived some of those relegation battles. However, Hutch was wonderful, worth the admission money just to go and see him play. As for saying he had lots of poor games, I would totally disagree. His...

    Luton Forum

    What struck me from some of the comments was the amount of stick their manager was getting. They were top of the league, leading scorers, second best defensive record, on the back of a nine game unbeaten run having scored 8 I think in two league games this season and he was still being berated...

    Copthorne Park

    I went to Binley Park. We used to lose every game we played against Caludon! We did beat Copthorne however as I remember. Two schools long since gone.

    Copthorne Park

    I was driving along Tamworth Road today and so stoppped to have a look. I must admit I was really surprised at the size of the park. I knew the Copthorne bit was there as this is visible from the road. I didn't realise that the parkland extends all of the way back up to Waste Lane. My first...

    I thought Biamou looked good when he came on, winning balls making passes.

    Player Ratings

    Didn't think this was one of Burge's best games. Made a couple of vital saves but there were a couple of mistakes too which he has mainly eliminated from his game this season. I also didn't think that this was one of Vincenti's best games. Beaten in the air quite a lot and several mis placed...

    Match Thread Doyle Kelly song

    I think Doyle has been one of our main positive players this season. He isn't someone who is going to be the most creative but he plays to his strengths and what he does he does really well. I noticed at the end of the game today that Robins thanked every player but Doyle was last and he gave...

    Copthorne Park

    Played for my school team against Copthorne School on that site. It would need owners who genuinely have the interests of the football club at heart. No chance of that at the moment.

    Match Thread Luton Town - Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 28th Oct

    First time today that in over 50 years of watching I haven't cheered a Coventry goal. At 2-0 I was on to win £180. Nazon sticks the ball in the net and it disappears. The moral of the story is don't bet on a score for your team as it is never right not wanting them to score. Learnt my lesson.
