Probably not but not sure we should have any hate for Luton. Fair play to them. To get to the Prem on a limited budget after coming up through the leagues. They will probably be way out their depth but they’re focussed on building a new stadium with the TV cash that will stand them in good stead in future.
They finished third in the league 10 points ahead of us and were beaten semi finalists the season before. However much it hurt, if one of us deserved to go up on pens it was probably them.

Personally I'm fine with Luton being there - they earned it. Whether they spend loads of money trying to stay there or not, or try and change their style of play or not, doesn't bother me one bit.
They need a new stadium and focusing their PL windfall on that is a far more sensible approach than spending loads on players who probably wouldn't keep them up anyway and would just waltz off after a year with a huge amount of that money stuffed in their back pocket. In fact, there's part of me that would love them to stay up having spent next to nothing and playing the type of football they're comfortable with. Show up the billionnaires spending ridiculous amounts of money on transfers and wages. If they try and play PL teams at silky football, they're going to get hammered. So why not try and do it the way that's served them so well over the past few years? You wouldn't look at a small boxer and complain that they didn't stand toe to toe with the heavyweight champ and slug it out.

Brighton 80% possession 3 down smash and grab by West Ham if only Brighton could get 1 back would not bet against a draw

Wolves aren’t winning many this season. Awful result.

Maybe there are only two spaces really as Luton will do well to get 12 points as soon as the opposition score they are done, I can see them scoring under twenty and letting in around one hundred.
So he shouldn't slid in then

Decent penalty if it had gone in.

He’s blocked a clear goal scoring opportunity with his arm, intentional or not. That ball gets past him then Haaland is free to tap it home. It can’t really be argued

It’s 56 mins in and I’m not entirely sure Hamer has touched the ball. Sheff Utd are totally the wrong team for him

He's playing a very random position too

How stupid by the fan who came on the pitch jumping on the back of your star striker, it’s only Sheffield United not the league title decider.
Tough shit

Head it what the hell was that.

If they somehow equalise again it'll be one of the most undeserved points in history

Ref's absolutely bottled that. Trent should be off.
Paul Anthony

Only thing I can think that saved Trent there (and it shouldn't have) is that he'd just been booked. Otherwise, he gets a yellow without any question.

Irrelevant though
Brighton Sky Blue

Would be interested to know how far into the game would the ref be prepared to give the second yellow.
Paul Anthony

You're right, I fully agree it should be.
