More than 1300 tickets have been sold to Luton supporters for today’s trip to Bradford however it must be the first league game in a very long time that fans have been able to pay on the day! What a novel concept!
The second half was poor from Luton certainly, as Coventry brought on the likes of Rudoni as more first teamers came into the fray. I imagine the heat also had something to do with it.
I thought the first half was really positive. Fanne and Kodua and others showing fluidity.
The goal was...
The more I think about it… the more I see two half divisions forming: League 1A and 1B. We’ve played AFCW and Peterborough - in my opinion, two teams that will end up in 1B. You can see already after just 2 games, the fancied teams into positions close to where you expect them to end up.
Most teams will probably use this as an extra pre-season friendly to try and get fringe players a bit more field time.
Matches involving L1 teams:
Middlesbrough v Doncaster
Stockport v Crewe
Accrington Stanley v Peterborough
Blackburn v Bradford
Blackpool v Port Vale
Chesterfield v Mansfield...
Luton do have Isaiah Jones who at this level will tear it to shreds when he gets fit for RWB. But considering the way we play, I still don’t understand how we can let Doughty go for a few million and replace him with Brammall who couldn’t get a club and is going to be unfit to start for another...
If you include the last PSF, it’s 15 offsides in 3 games. It’s felt more. There were spells in previous years, especially under Jones, where we’d never get caught offside in a whole game.
Job Dunne though. Luton really haven’t got going in the first 2 matches and yet sit with 2 clean sheets, 3...
What do I know? Jerry Yates comes in from the start today. Feel that's a bit of a risk considering he's had no recognised football since May.
Interesting choice of formation - maybe we have switched to a 4-2-3-1, but I think the likeliest scenario is that we continue with the 3-5-2, with Milli...
Not expecting too many changes from the AFCW game. No one was signed in the 7 days between fixtures and I’m not expecting Yates and definitely not Brammall to be anywhere near match fitness.
As a spectacle I’m expecting something a bit more open than last Friday’s borefest where Luton struggled...
The transfer has fallen through as the clubs couldn’t agree a structure of payments.
Very strange although I saw yesterday on social media, someone claiming that he failed his medical and Luton requested his £750K fee to be reduced to £500K as a result.
Perhaps someone better has become available?
It looks like Luton may sell out their initial and additional allocation for Peterborough this Saturday, which would mean well in excess of 3500 tickets sold.
Nice to go to a stadium where allocations aren’t particularly restricted any more!
I don’t wish to sound harsh or putting the boot in, but unless SWFC fold completely never to return, it isn’t a risk for him because of the football creditors rule. He will always be paid his full wages.
Anyone at the Plymouth game today? What happened with the refereeing performance because going by Jamie Mackie in SSN all sorts seemed to happen and the referee made a number of unusual errors?
Luton are set to sign Samson Tovide from Colchester having agreed a fee with the U’s.
Cowley described him as irreplaceable earlier in the year after receiving a lot of interest from the Championship and elsewhere in the winter.
