Luton Hoof Ball

[TurnbullsCans]

Absolutely awful.

As the commentator said “it’s not a beauty contest, it’s a football match”

They don’t play football though…they aren’t interested in playing any football
On the lovely big wembley pitch if we can get through let’s seeeeeeeeee……

 

[Yearbyred]

Remember when Brentford taunted us with the “you only score from set pieces” jibe.

Oh they are, scored two and conceded none.

Only remember Wimbledon playing at Wembley once, it worked for them there against the country's best team.

 

[RavsDad]

They look a dreadful team who, despite that wasted enough chances to win by 5 against Sunderland's patch-up reserves. How did Luton finish 3rd?

No ring craft whatsoever. Going into the last 5 they're still pumping balls upfield when they could be attempting to keep possession.

 

[El Guapo]

Kenilworth Rd 110x72 yds
Wembley 115x74 yds

Not massively bigger.

As an aside, Riverside 115x75 yds

They finished third because they were the third best team. Hopefully the fourth best will get there.

Aye, a smaller pitch than we're used to.

 

[Craggsy2]

I am so please we didn’t appoint Rob Edwards as our manager. I thought he’s supposed to be a modern thinking coach?

It's about 8% bigger. Bigger than the absolute numbers make it sound.

We saw what happens when you try to play football with a bunch of cloggers when woody was in charge.

What tactics would you play with that squad?

He's done a brilliant job, same as Carrick has. Mowbray's worked a miracle too, let's be honest.

 

[Craggsy2]

Yes he’s done a good job at suppressing football. I would just struggle to enjoy supporting a team that plays that way.

 

[Stocko]

Absolutely awful.

Awful, but effective, we tried to pass around Sunderland but they were very quick to close down our players.

 

[Loop]

Dreadful team and an even worse Stadium.

I think if you'd been watching your team in non league and you were now 3rd in the championship you'd probably be enjoying it

 

[TheYorkshireTerrier]

Danny Murphy just been on TalkSport saying it was quite refreshing to see that type of football...

We had it with Pulis, despite having some good players. It was terrible to watch, absolutely awful.

I seem to recall in that game when it was 0-0 Beardsley was clean through on goal and the referee brought it back for a free kick to Liverpool.
