Never understood why teams think trying to defend against attacking teams is a good thing to do - it's playing right into their hands. It's like seeing a structural beam bowing and thinking "I know - I'll add more weight onto it"

Knowing you’re not good enough, trying to stifle, keep it tight and nick one from a set piece.

Fair play to Luton, traveled in numbers on a horrible day.

How come the naughty corner is empty, staying for an extra pint in the warmth of the pub?

But they will have bought their tickets when the weather was nice.

How often does it work though? When it does loads is made of it, but it probably works once in every 20-25 games

More often than trying to go toe-to-toe with arguably the best team in the league at the moment.

I don’t like it, but it is what it is.

How much does the goal line technology cost? We've had a few close calls this season.

If I remember correctly weren't Luton much better than us and controlled most of the game last year but we ended up winning 3-0? Or is that me having sky-blue tinted specs and wishful thinking?

Way too defensive, especially with JCH up front and isolated.

Genuinely worried about the result, especially if they score one we’ve got no attacking intent at all.

If if works fair enough, but it won’t. Unless we start to attack, the rare times we have, they don’t look too confident defensively.

Let us attack MR!!

His knee is inside the line and the ball is inside his thigh, clearly well over the line

The angle needs a on the line to judge there was.a premier league game the other week and the ball looked miles over but it was ruled 1% of the bal was on the line

You know you're in trouble when someone from Glasgow is correcting your punctuation.

Basically whole ball over whole of the line. From that it's not conclusive the whole ball is over the whole of the line. You can have green showing between the ball and goalline but part of the ball might not have crossed the line because of the curvature.
