Who would have thought two play of finalists from just two seasons ago battling it out bottom of the championship.

I'm not ready to face them again. Still not over the last time - that really was our one chance wasn't it. Tonight we looked a world away from that PO final team. Fear it may be the end of an era if we don't win.

IF we win it will take the sting out of tonight and 4 points from the 2 games will be ok.

They’re exactly the sort of team we always struggle against. No doubt they will be physical, press us hard and look to bully us at set pieces. Can’t say I’m looking forward to it.

That's proper commitment you had there, 12 hour flights every other Saturday and some midweeks to watch Cov??

Really is El Sackico. Luton still have better characters on the pitch than we do by a long shot though, they should win handsomely.

Our wasters would struggle against decent League 1 teams.

Especially at home.

Fans once again clapped the players and staff off again tonight. That will not happen if we lose Saturday.

I wish you well with it.

I'm lucky enough to have never needed major surgery, however I've heard that when recovering you're only supposed to do boring things, so attending may aid your recovery?

Thanks ,I'm having keyhole surgery and been been told for 1-2 weeks I won't feel very good and not to walk more than 10 mins a day. Then to take it easy for 4-6 weeks ,no beer, I can't even fly till Jan. Maybe around mid December i may be able to attend a game although with our performances it not a particularly exciting prospect lol.

Can't see anything other than a hammering tbh. I think we'll get done 3-0 and that will be that.

Yep. Even in their poor form I think they'll bully these players.

I always admire someone when they measure their recovery time in beer

Yes but I don’t think he will be by the end of November.

It does make me laugh how so many people just write games off.

Anyone who has followed football for any length of time, wil know that anyone is capable of beating anyone and the game does indeed throw up surprises.

Would not surprise me at all if we beat Luton on Saturday.

My main worry at the moment is whether Eccles will be available or not. If we need physicality, it would be much better to play Eccles rather than Torp.

Didn't look great though did it, when he came off injured.

Time will tell, but I am looking forward to the game and think that we can beat them. Not saying we will, but we certainly can.

I don’t think Eccles was injured , as he’d cocked up his attempted “shot “ , a challenge did come in , but he knew he was being subbed ……..
A question to all ….. why the fuck have we employed seemingly a team of blue track-suited people & what the hell do they all do ??????

Eccles was definitely injured wasn't he? He was limping and shaking his head as he went off.
