Not much in the game especially the first half with us playing most of the football and missed a sitter to go ahead.
They scored right on half time and was a bit controversial to say the least, with blocks all over the place,but stockleys header was first class,although dean committed the first rule of defending "never" let the forward see your number!.
I don't comment on refs but let's say he was inconsistent!!
Positives , there was little between the teams,negatives,it not hard to set up a team to pin your wing backs back and become five at the back not three.
Interesting if we stick with it.
 
Ah well, I suppose it was asking a lot for another energy charged performance against a top team so soon after Tuesday night's efforts. Sounds like our failure to take chances cost us again. It will be a tough test against the Shrews on Tuesday and they will be smarting after two straight defeats.. If Deano is out through injury I would like to see Lids back in as his combination with Piero could make all the difference.
 
Before we all get downhearted; Luton scored at a time when Deano wasn't 100% (after being fouled):mad:

Luton's budget is 4 times ours; 2nd highest in FL2
 
Agree redraine, I would have taken two points from our last two fixtures so three is a bit of a bonus.
Frustrated tho as they weren't that good,only stockley stood out, what a tough lad he's become.
He give it but also took it!.
The challenge from behind on dean was a poor one and ultimately put him out the game ( ref never gave a free kick !! ),and they scored a minute later !
No problem with the rough stuff as long as the decisions are consistent and as I said Jayden took it as well as giving it
 
As ever, F19's summary says it all. Thought Stanley played some good stuff in the first half but, other than Windass's one-on-one with their keeper, they didn't threaten much. Luton's first goal came at the wrong time, and for all the wrong reasons. Second half Stanley seemed to lose the plot, Luton were quicker to the loose ball and their CBs dominated most balls in the air ( of which there were far too many from both sides). Losing Deano made matters worse and, at the risk of stirring the haters' hornets nest, I now suspect that Stanley's latest signing isn't even a very good defender.. And, having tried Conneely at right and left back, he was played in the middle of the back three but doesn't (yet, ever?) dominate like a big ugly CH should. Thought Gornell tried his best but didn't look fully fit.
Work still in progress, methinks.
Look forward to another funereal video summary from Professor Coleman.
 
Didn't see you exile or I would have had a natter :)
Good chat with Revived and he's gone up in my estimation as he played at school with one of my icons !! :)
Cashy seemed in a good mood !!,but shudder to think what his take is on the ref :)

You met Cashy when he was in a good mood? Crikey O'Reilly - not many can claim that privilege :rolleyes:
Hope Deano's injury not too bad, we could do with him fit for Tuesday

Di...... I can attest to the fact that your friend and mine was in an agreeable state of mind, if his beaming smile of welcome for me was anything to go by !. However, it did little to placate my feelings that in a crummy Stadium, in an even crummier Town where the only pies available are of the crummy Chicken Balti ilk ...Yuk !...where I witnessed yet another crummy referee in action, where do the F A acquire such officials ?.....saw a vile bunch of crummy home fans !....met two crummy stewards who could not understand, let alone answer the simplest of questions !...
Then I find that I missed an opportunity to chat with Revived Red !...so all in all Di today was crummy !!.
As for the game F19 has said it all !!.....Goodnight all !!.
 
For me,was a game we certainly did not deserve to lose,The first half Lutons first effort was the goal n that was near half time. That for me,was the lift they needed, cos Stanley had easily been better,The moral is yeh must take the chances yeh make, i think if we had Luton woulda been blown away. The ref i thought, was certainly playing to a big crowd,n fer me let em away wi virtually everything. I can't really call him a knob, cos he was consistent wi most of the clowns we had this season. Roll on the Shrews, am really looking forward to tuesday, Cmon you reds.
 
About the game ... it's all been said.

Great to meet the usual suspects once again - and also to chat to the mighty Cashman and Nick for the first time. Yonmon - how did we not see each other??
