Sunderland bossed Luton for about an hour in the first leg. No reason at all why we can't so the same.

so many people took weird delight in saying we’d never sell out in the Premier League (purely because we used to get 15,000 in 1995)- what a joke that is.

we’ll sell all these out, and if we went up we’d average 30k+ no bother.

And to add to everybody's buzz, Wasps have just had their place removed from the Championship next season (lack of proof of funds, players) Spare a thought

Nope, sold as part of Wasps administration to Fraser's Group.

Luton fans will be feeling the same for the most part. As they say, styles make matches and next weekend it’s the brute force side against the nifty counterattacking one.

Oddly I won’t cry if we lose but probably will if we win. Mrs BSB will be consistent and cry in both cases.

It's exactly the same here. You've got to be positive , but Jesus, the suspense is already killing me

It's madness that the minimum capacity for Premier league football is 5k but for Rugby Union 10k, denying well run clubs from entering because there ground is not big enough even though they are well run with the likes of Cov, Ealing, Jersey, Cornish Pirates etc

In our defence , we froze. First time this season I've seen it happen . For 35 minutes we were running the show , and them we just stopped. Bloody irritating. I'm sure we're not going to give you that luxury...I hope we're not gonna give you that luxury

Seen this mentioned elsewhere as The People's Final. According to the Guardian Football podcast, in terms of budget, City are 22nd in the league and Luton are 20th. Loads of money is nice, but its not required when you have hard workers, sprit and determination. Decent managers help too.

Very much so. Also with our owners , 2020 , we the fans own some of the club , and have one representative on the board. We do, occasionally have votes , the last one being do we stick with orange or rever to our old black and white outfits. The club left that entirely to us.
The other thing our CEO steadfastly refused to do is to let the club be sponsored by the gambling industry

You gotta love how Ivan Toney was banned for 8 months due to gambling, but his club is sponsored by a gambling company.

I love this sport but sometimes its bonkers.

Gambling spooks me, especially when the participants in football have more money than sense. I know , I'm being a killjoy in not liking gambling , but it's an insidious addict , families are destroyed because it only surfaces when it's too late. At least you can see a piss-head falling about

We all dare to believe myself included but just bear in mind we have lost one in 19 games. Respect to Luton but we shouldn't fear anyone. We'll give them a game.

There’s surely got to be. Every season ticket holders got two by the looks of things, should still leave 10k. Must be releasing more blocks as well as there’s fuck all showing as available

If you mean Luton , our last defeat in the league was 1-0 against Burnley in Feb , prior to that WBA in Jan.
Of course, on the last day of the Runty Druid's managership of us , he totally f***ed it up at Stoke , we lost 2-0 and it was dismal. Next morning he was sitting in his office in Southampton
