    My feeling too. We are allowing them too much space.

    Their goal was a great strike, but a third midfielder might have picked him up.

    At least Blackburn's "interest" will be cooling.

    Before we start

    Why is the referee permitting all in wrestling on Mullin . Four times he’s let it go . He’s reacting to the crowd far too much .

    Scrappy game in scrappy conditions and on balance, Luton deserve their lead .

    We
    Jackson not getting service and as a result anonymous , Mullin put in himself about but no support
    Defence panicky ?
    Wright having a decent game to be fair .
    Need Evans to bolster the middle .

    Sarce on but only if fit

    Ashby could be useful right about now. Miles off it again

    After a bright start we have faded badly to a default away performance.

    We look totally toothless yet again up front. Jackson and Mullin anonymous, a couple of decent runs from Wright the only time we have kept it on the deck up front.

    Looks like Neufville doing his best to aid his hometown team today.

    I would take off Tilt at half time before he gets another booking, move Touray over, and have Wright and Pointon linking up down the left.

    We need Evans into midfield and two up top. Mullin has been given no service in two games. Jackson, too this game, never seeing the ball

    We don't play that style, never will. If the wing backs don't work it's back to no efforts on goal

    I think Usain Tilt has been shown to have lost his pace. Awful error lack of pace for his deserved booking.

    As others have said, nobody taking over in midfield and directing play. Surely he can see this and sort it out. Maybe Evan’s might be the person, other than having someone orchestrating things we just go hoof ball all the time.

    He struggling cos his midfield partner has gone AWOL again. In games like this where the opposition has better technical players I want to.see.an extra midfielder and go two up to stop Mullin being isolated chasing lost causes. It's a good reality check as to how far We've progressed because the better teams in the division can all play decent football down the middle, something we never do because of how we set up.

    Disagree with that Kev, they've try to play a decent style on a pudding pitch. If it had been dry I think we'd be struggling even more.
