A loose final 10 mins by Luton added with our confidence from a goal gave us some positive momentum to end that second half. Bayliss finally became more involved after being anonymous for most of it in a midfield that struggled for 25 mins

We have to come out switched on the second half. Players need to be on it from the off. We won’t have it our way easily.

He’s definitely a good player. He just seems to be one of those players who just hasn’t fully grasped the basics yet. Like failing to look up, spending too much time on the ball and knowing when to release the ball. In time he’ll be a fantastic player though if he continues to get his head down.

But if he keeps his head down he can’t look up!

Personally I think he’s great. He has flaws, as does every single player at this level. But he’s tricky, makes space for himself and creates openings. He can take too long on the ball and pick a wrong ball, but I’d say he’s a luxury player, and every luxury player can do that.

Terrible up until the gifted goal and feared we would get a hammering but full credit to players they have turned it around and taken game to Luton. Definite penalty, good goal and better team overall. More of that in second half please

Gifted goal? Good ball down the line by Mason, excellent play by Hiwulla to get past his man and Shipley with space to finish. Not gifted at all, a well worked goal.

Day off from watching Wasps?

Luxury players always generate split opinions. I’ve personally never been a fan of players like Bright as I find they’re more wasteful than effective but that doesn’t mean he’s not a good player

Really strong second half of the first half.

We started to play football again and are making Luton look very average. My worry is at some point they’ll have their 10/15 minutes of attack again, and whether we’ll be strong enough to stop it.

Equally, if we score early I think we’ll go onto win as they won’t be used it it, and in my view look poor at the back. They are old fashioned centre backs who are starting to struggle with out pace and movement.

Mason has been poor so far. Brown is becoming better in his absence, however let’s not forget how poor he was when he played.

That’s where we differ then. I love players that get me on my feet because they have the ability to do something.

Didn't look good, when they went ahead thought we were in for a hiding but have come back in to it really well. The stronger team since they scored. Hopefully keep it up for the second half.

We’re not far of being a really decent team. Just need to keep working at it and improve a couple of key positions in the summer

Brown was playing his best football for us when he ended up getting dumped - he’s easily better than Mason

At least 5 of these players will not be here in the summer - and 3 of them are our best
