We owe them a pasting.

Although I'm not so sure

Good side , really tough game , Coventry 1-1 Luton

 

[Sky Blue Harry H]

Happy to thrash them 1-0, 2-1 or whatever. Big tough nasty team with a smattering of decent players. Adebayo is a better version (and what we hoped he'd become) of Bakayoko. Rate Jordan Clarke and Cornick too. Keep Lansbury away from O'Hare (dirty fecker)

Always liked Mpanzu as well. Bit of a flair player and one of those who on their day can pose as a real threat.

Any sort of win will do, fancy another injury time winner though.

 

[Sky Blue Harry H]

Feels like a pivotal game, somehow. If we lost to these, you'd struggle to see us catching them up (although if we won the next two, we'd have our hopes up again) Feels like a must not lose in terms of momentum. Either way, really proud of the club and team this season, and can feel my annoyance building at certain posters rounding on the team, individuals if the result goes against us. They've given us so much more this season than we were expecting. Proud of them.

If O'Hare is back and Godden starts up top with Vik I can see us winning this. Do people think Bidwell can prevent the massacre down our left that happened at their place?

Think he will be out

 

[Sky Blue Harry H]

Think he will be out

Sensible to make sure he's fit for the softies of Sheffield United (gulp!)

 

[Happy_Martian]

Would love to see us put these to the footballing sword but I just can't see it. Said it last home game, our form is so unbalanced currently, if the Titanic had been painted in todays Skyblue, it wouldn't have left port in the first place. Luton can and do score and I can't see them stopping for us.

Cov 1- 3 Luton. Our scorer - Tavares

Do you mean Bidwell? Was clearly injured on 30 mins (I think groin) and Robins did his classic of keeping him on for another 30

No team has beaten us by more than a goal at the CBS (despite some people bemoaning our form)

Good point - I foolishly assumed he meant O'Hare. Less concerned if Bidwell is out, as Maatsen can drop in there.

 

[Sky Blue Harry H]

Anybody know how many Luton are bringing. I'd go on their forum to look, but as it's been created by and filled with a mix of 10 year olds and Neanderthal Danny Dyers, didn't think I'd be able to source anything intelligible.

 

[Sky_Blue_Dreamer]

Could go either way. Hope we've got the likes of O'Hare and Hyam back.

Moore
Hyam Rose JCS
Dabo Sheaf Hamer Maatsen
O'Hare Allen
Gyokeres

Wilson, Kane, Bidwell, Fadz, Tavares, Godden, Waghorn
​

If not Fadz in at the back but for O'hare I'm not sure. Is Godden fit enough to start? Is Bidwell fit and move Maatsen to AM? Do we start Waghorn with Gyokeres and hope he shows more improvement?

 

[Skybluebeliever]

Think he will miss that game as well

Fucking hell, exactly how hard was he kicked?

(we’re talking O’Hare here right?)

 

[Sky_Blue_Dreamer]

I think someone said he was actually alright from the shoeing he got and it was he and Hyam colliding in training that was the reason they were out. No idea if it's true, and if it's concussion protocol I hope it ends today.

Yes bidwell

No bidwell
Hyam and O’hare should be fine

 

[It’sabatch87]

Thanks Adi

 

[Adge]

Well it's probably Hollywood or bust. To be fair though,we have already been in Hollywood this season.

According to someone who spoke to Hyam in the stand at the Swansea game, he collided with Maatsen in training, not O’Hare

 

[Bertola]

I assumed Hyam would be out still if he suffered concussion on Thursday, I always thought you had to miss 7 days due to the protocols?

Hopefully O'Hare will be back at the top of the box

It’s the same forum they used in the ‘50’s

 

[Liquid Gold]

Whatever the result I want to see a reaction performance wise from the players after Saturday.

 

[Torquay Sky Blue]

I said at the end of last season we needed to aim to be as good as Luton this time round. I don't think we've done a bad job really. Expectations probably driven a bit high by our early season form.

 

[Skybluebeliever]

Think o hare will be on bench though , hyam should pass the protocols and be okay

 

[Sky Blue Harry H]

Think o hare will be on bench though

Who ? I just don't think I understand ; )

 

[Sky_Blue_Daz]

I’ll take a 1-0 win please

 

[Paxman II]

O'hare back, Godden to start and Maetsen at lwb.
Just a case of mcfazdean or rose?

3-1 City

 

[Skybluebeliever]

Think ohare could well be on the bench

if Maatsen starts at LWB

be interesting if 4 in midfield , who the 4th one is or if 2 up front who the 2nd striker is

can’t see godden starting

 

[The Philosopher]

Adebayo toasted us last time. I’d have JCS given the brief of marking him tight.

Cornick is super quick and I can’t help think that Fadz needs to sit this one out. Maatsen needs to drop back - we need his pace in defence.

If available:

Moore

Kane / Maatsen WB

Hyam / Rose / JCS CB

In the middle I’d have Allen nipping slightly back trying to intercept a little deeper.

Hamer / Allen / Sheaf / O’Hare

Gyok up front.

At 65 mins I’d bring on Tavares for Allen and play him in a free role.

If Sonny Bradley is out then their defence struggles late on.

 

[The Philosopher]

My Mrs is a Mad Luton fan so I end up watching them more than I’d like. That’s why I’ve put my ten pence worth in.

 

[shmmeee]

Not at all confident about this one. We weren’t in bad form last time and now we are, and the opposite is true about them. Just hope the players are still angry about how the last game turned out.
