    give it a rest just for 90 mins. Gets a bit boring. Why is it crucial? Because ultimately we are a football club and football matches are quite important as well as winning them. Destroyed is a strong wordtoo

    Sounds like Caddis is having another good game.

    Injuries to Ball and NKP, apparently.

    Well done all concerned. Let’s get this great club moving forward again.

    First home win for DH. A landmark of some sort.

    How on earth McGowan and Isherwood are going to get on next week is anyone's guess, but we'd better enjoy the win while we can.

    Beer o'clock.

    Hurray! Couldn’t remember what a win felt like. Decent performance against a poor Oxford team but a win is a win and we need all the points we can get.

    We finally look fit enough to compete for 90 minutes (100 today!) and seem to have some steal and organisation throughout the team.

    Wait did we just win a league game, score 2 goals and keep a clean sheet on a Saturday?

    I reckon he might move Caddis into the centre. Luton score goals for fun at home. something like 80+ since the start of last season.

    If Akpan is fit I'd be tempted to stick him in at the back.

    Not a bad call. He's no giant though, is he? I was wondering if we are going to see some sort of back 5. Caddis might be the 'sweeper' in such a formation.

    Great win.

    Full of commitment if low on quality.

    It is a start we can build on. The likes of Caddis, Henry and JOB are going to be vital for us.

    Thought David Ball had a good game.

    We slowed the game down well in the last twenty minutes. Good management.

    It’s telling that Caddis, O’Brien and Henry have all become first team players immediately after signing. Shows the lack of quality we had in the squad.

    It also gives me confidence that Hopkin knows what he wants in a player and, if given the chance, he should be able to improve the squad further in January

    Agreed. Hulme. Considering DH hasn't had a transfer window yet, I think he's doing remarkably well.

    He is clearly looking for a team of battlers. I don't think we will be winning any fair play awards in the near future.

    We were not good in the first twenty minutes, but those two quick goals gave us control of the game.
