    Seatfrog

    I've used it a few times and been succesful. Worth knowing what each train offers in first class. If it is LNER you often get a lounge at the station and good food and drinks. Including alcohol. Transpenine is often a single coffee and biscuit. If a service is likely to be rammed I'm...

    Iheanacho

    If you look at the stats it is the other way round - Iheanacho had more involvement off the ball and on the ball. He lost a lot of his battles and his passing was atrocious. But he was arguably our most involved player...

    Iheanacho

    He was better at closing down, challenging for long balls and being involved than Conway was yesterday. I think Conway is a good Championship striker, but he was just not involved yesterday.

    Iheanacho

    The hyperbole on this thread is ridiculous. He has not been good - but was not even our worst striker yesterday. He both made and won more tackles than any of our other players (3/4)... He got involved more than most. His passing was terrible (54%). Looks a yard or so slower than when he...

    Luton Town vs Middlesbrough [15/03] Match Day Thread

    Some people seem to think if you are not devastated you have no insight. I thought we played poorly. Luton had many more chances than us. The opposite happened earlier in the season and we lost. The luck does even itself out a bit. What I will say. We grew as the game went on - Luton were...

    The Gods are with Carrick

    There has been a couple, but not many.

    Luton Town vs Middlesbrough [15/03] Match Day Thread

    The problem was they kept being bypassed today - played long way too often and immediately came back. We needed to try and play more pretty football if anything.

    Luton Town vs Middlesbrough [15/03] Match Day Thread

    I think you are being generous to some on there. I'm very generous with our players... Conway and Iheanacho lost every 5050, Azaz, Morris and Hackney couldn't pick up second balls. The whole defence passed poorly when trying to play the ball forward. I cannot defend Carrick... we tried to...

    The Gods are with Carrick

    The opposite happened a lot early season.. maybe these things do even out... That is the most i can ever remember us losing the expected goals stat. 2.45 vs 0.24... I'll take a lucky draw today!

    Atletico Madrid vs Real Madrid

    As others have said - i thought it was more obvious on first view than on replay. And i thought the Correa penalty was going to be disallowed as well. It's close but as he kicks it his left foot slides underneath. The idea it would not be disallowed if it was Real is tin foil stuff.

    Atletico Madrid vs Real Madrid

    I immediately saw it - but that is because of the zenden cup final penalty. Was amazed it took as long as it did.

    Dijksteel's Goal

    I've always thought his skills would be best suited in midfield and he played there for Charlton before moving to right back. But never tried.

    Would you have taken 3 points off 5th with 9 games left….

    I'm easily pleased Win more than we lose and I'm happy. We are currently just achieving that.

    I don't think it's going to happen

    But... I would still like to have a go. Can't always predict when it clicks for a promoted club.

    I don't think it's going to happen

    It can have the effect it has had on Luton... Can't kick the losing mentality. Would not be surprised if that happens to Southampton next season.

    Travers

    I cannot understand how anyone thinks he is head and shoulders over Brynn based on their time this season (he's played a couple of games more than Brynn) Definitely decent, but i think Brynn backed by Dieng and Glover has us covered in goal.

    What would Illing Junior cost to sign ?

    There was an interview with him where he said one of his biggest issues is not knowing his best position. He said he has played left/right. Even deeper as a centre mid. I think it was more ring rustiness rather than he could never play on the right. He is at a career crossroads - Villa...

    Well done Boro

    I just don't understand this mentality. Suppose I am easily pleased. I enjoy going to the football whatever, there have only been a couple of games this season we were not still in at the end despite being poor. We have got a win or draw (23 vs 14) in the majority of games. It's not been...

    Hackney as a 10...

    I don't think this is the case. I think you have more options to get up the field with the three of Morris Hackney and Howson in the centre. And it would leave us less exposed on the break. Currently when Hackney loses it we are outnumbered. I don't want to stop him dropping deep on the...

    The last 10 minutes last night

    This stuff happens when keepers go forwards. You can't plan for marking the whole team.
