*****Official Match Thread v Luton*****

[Keith Scott 243]

Vrancic on with 15 left. Too little, too late. Once again poor game management from Farke.

The Scott.

[First Wazzock 902]

No fire in their belly, no pride, no passion

[keelansgrandad 6,679]

Awful game at a ground in darkness. The lights were better at CR when they went out against Derby.

D F does confuse us. It is obvious it isn't working and the bench is still seated.

We knew the run would come to an end and today is a good time to do it with results the way they are.

Bleddy Luton commentators are doing my head in. They don't watch us but have spent the game telling us where we are going wrong.

 

[The Real Buh 3,423]

Bottom line is none of us know anything about those youth players, whether they are good enough or not. We are guessing. They could all be nowhere near ready. In which case we have no options

👍 really don’t understand all the negativity about Farke. The man who’s got us promoted and to the top of the championship again this season. With subs, I don’t think anyone would argue that Farke avoids promoting youth, so clearly they’re not ready if they can’t get on with so many injuries.

Stiepermann would not have scored a hatrick against professional, League 2 opposition in a team of kids. 

We have a player on the bench who did. If they're not ready to improve on Stiepermann's utterly abject performances up front, they're in the wrong industry. 

[Il Pirata 249]

Rupp's a huge loss isnt he. Him and Skipp we're forming a strong partnership. I can't believe we're still having to rely on Tettey.. Vrancic has to start ahead of him surely.

I can see why you'd lack belief and motivation if you know all your hard work is to lay on a chance to a player who needs 15 chances to score.

We really need to bring on one of the kids. Adrian Forbes really bigging one of them up on the Luton ifollow.

What's the point in taking them

[Samwam27 519]

If our youngsters aren't ready, they shouldnt be on the bench.

Any striker, no matter how young, will have the instincts of a striker, and will still be better than a midfielder who hasn't got a clue up front

Adrian Forbes reckons one of the strikers is class. Not TDP but the other one.

[Wacky Waving Inflatable Arm Flailing Tube Man 3,777]

With Tettey off, Skipp right wing-back and Aarons left wing-back, is Vrancic in midfield on his own?

[Crabbycanary3 994]

We could still end up top of the League tonight but it doesn't feel a time to be happy about it.

I think one of them is Adrian Forbes-whoever it was seems to think that Tyrese Omotye is decent so I suggest he probably does watch us. Unless you're listening to a different commentary of course. 

[Branston Pickle 3,632]

Can someone please tell me where our threat is from corners?  I think I’m right that we haven’t scored from one all season, nor frankly have we come close, which is now nearly a third of the way through!

[Il Pirata 249]

Zimmerman... wow. 

[Hank shoots Skyler 2,094]

Buendia for Zimmermann

Has Farke just rage quit this game?

Mind boggling with Gibson and Hanley in the side. 

[Capt. Pants 4,195]

Zimmermann on. We usually concede.

Yeah its Forbes, and he is Head of Coaching and Player Development at Luton. Prior to that he was an academy coach at Norwich.

Said he'd watched our U23's recently.

[NFN FC 1,121]

No worries, Zimbo on. The comeback begins!

Its to move Sorenson into centre mid surely?

[Making Plans 936]

The man who voted for 5 subs uses 2.

No doubt though we'll get the other 3 in injury time

Says it all really

[Samwam27 519]

Christoph Zimmermann replaces Emiliano Buendía. Farke wtf

[Wacky Waving Inflatable Arm Flailing Tube Man 3,777]

Bringing Zimmermann on is peculiar. Obviously it means Sorensen goes into midfield, but it smacks of giving up.

And only used 1 against Coventry

I'd have just stuck Zimm up top tbh, just lump it to him. 

[norfolkbroadslim 223]

At flipping last!

 

[First Wazzock 902]

That's what I like to see...

8 minutes to go, 2 goals adrift, you can't have enough triangles on the halfway line

[The Real Buh 3,423]

Here we go let’s see what he’s got
