Well would you Adam and Eve it! I said we needed a great performance tonight and we'be bloody got it in spades.

Special mention to Rod, Vincenti and Shipley who have all played really well.

Only Grimmer at the start of the game was playing badly, when twice he played their strikers in.

Some great interplay from us and Vincenti has made a hell of a difference.

We needed that 2nd goal. That was crucial.

Great stuff thus far.

Clarke Harris makes the difference. Rather than have the ball bounce of his head he’s constantly leaning in and working the defenders. It leaves space for others.

If we’d gone for someone like him at the start we’d be well up the league now.

Wish they would sort the speakers out, going to give somebody a bad head

 

[Johhny Blue]

Saw it was almost kick-off time and then got busy with work. Now I see its HT and 2-0. Happy days!

No Excuse. I'm at work as well, obviously not as productive as you.

Luton look every bit like a team used to winning but with only 1 win in 5. Everything is someone else's fault - loads of finger pointing, moaning at the ref. If we weather the storm in the first 10 minutes after half time, can see them self combusting and conceding a few more. They've got Newport on Saturday too who have only lost twice at home, hope they write this off after an hour and save themselves for that.

Really important we hang on to this now. The confidence gained from a big result against one of the top teams in the division, would be massive.

Rod is having a storming game and has kept them at bay very well.

It's great that Shipley and VincentI are offering protection too.

 

[Johhny Blue]

Research out this week said that scoring just before half time was not the good thing it is sagely pronounced to be by most ex-footballer pundits. Statistically the side conceding the goal does better. I assume because the goal scoring side relaxes and the side conceding does something about it during half time.

Touch of the film "Moneyball" if you have not seen it

I prefer the goal

 

[Otis]

Lol

Haynes is crap. Lol.

 

[Gibbo]

Goalie was on the right side, did it take a deflection having initially been going wide?

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Expect them to come at us 2nd half but as long as we don't commit harikiri at the back we ought to see this out.

 

[covmark]

How are Exeter doing ?

0-0 mate

He’s been great first half

Looks like it went straight through, keeper got unsighted by the defender trying to head it clear

I'm just glad he's our crap!

He's definitely having a great game, but I would say Vincenti has made just as much of a difference. His one touch football has been excellent and we have won some throw in challenges too because of him. He has got in the box supporting the attack and of course he got his goal.

 

[MatthewWallis]

Can we play Luton every week

 

[Nick]

Loving the old highlights on the screen!

 

[PTA]

Just perfect
Lock it up !!

And throw away the key.

I repeat - if we’d had a player like him all season we’d be in the top 3

 

[Johhny Blue]

How are the throw ins tonight?

 

[Skyblueweeman]

BBC says Luton have had 66% possession. Is that right?

I reckon it’s about 65% to be fair.

Better . Vincenti has been flicking a few on.

Ifs and buts matey

 

[Esoterica]

We would be the only team to do the double over Luton this season. (and the only other team that could is Barnet)

 

[PTA]

Only 5 points from autos as it stands.

Disagree. 64.875% tops.

 

[Nick]

They are taking their time, vincenti chatting to the fans

Still 45 mins to go. Need to keep Luton at bay.

A goal from them and it will change the complexion of the game.

And Robins would be the best Manager going.

 

[Nick]

Lucky then, cross in from them but trickles wide

 

[Grendel]

Vincenti has done ok but he is so slow.

With a game in hand!

Lino flags goal kick, nowhere near out

Even their players think it's a foul rather than goal kick

 

[sw88]

How’s the Lino say that went out of play! Even the players thought he flagged for a free kick as it was nowhere near going out
