LUTON TOWN (A)

Not sure. I’m hoping to make my way into town and take it from there. Probably have a look on the footy ground guide it usually gives pointers for pubs for away fans. Failing that @Hulmebantam reckons there’s a decent metal pub to get into the mood !

 

Beat me to it. Cheers

 

More likely to be @Park bantam

 

My youngest said at half time 'that's ok dad we can go home now, at least we have scored'....needless to say we didn't go home and the rest is history. He was the talk of his mates at school (and his teacher a Boro fan) on Monday for being there...

Interesting story about getting the tickets...queued up for over six hours in the snow and got 5 places away from the ticket office window when they said 'sold out'!! Couldn't believe it....but they took details and said if any returns we'll be in touch...kids were distraught that we hadn't got tickets but got a phone call at work on Monday afternoon to ask if I was still interested....when I got home from work and told my two lads, I was then the best Dad in the world that evening!!!

 

Yes first year of the back pass rule!! Naughty place at that time with all the back alleys around the ground, wasn't pleasant at all!! Got done there with a couple of mates down one of those alleys!!

 

I'd actually really like to go to this buddy but domestic duties are calling I'm afraid.

I've only been there once before ages ago in a cup competition (league cup I think) when they had that awful plastic pitch.

I hope you and my other fellow Bantams who go can celebrate another positive performance even if it doesn't yield any points. A tough place to go atm but another Peterboroughesque display would be very welcome.

 

Back pass law didn’t come in until 1992.

Tomlinson got penalised for handling the ball twice.

 

Little bit of interest in BCFC at the bookie's. Best price on City, cut from 10/1 to 8/1....

 

I hate football... I feel bloody optimistic about tonight now.. and come 10pm I'm going to be fuming when we've taken a 4-0 hammering!!

 

@Skyebantam 's 50p moves markets

 

8/1 is way too big against Luton.

I’d have us more around the 4/1 mark.

 

I priced us at 11/2 on my tissue with Luton @ 1/2.

 

If I were a bookie I'd go:

Luton - 4/7
Draw - 13/5
Bradford - 4/1

 

11.5% overround. You stingy sod fancy a job in the industry, you'd be welcome with those overrounds......

Me..


Luton 1/2
Draw 3/1
Bradford 11/2

A much more palatable 7% overround!!

 

Hylton available for Luton tonight.

Him to score and Luton to win would be where my money was.

As for city I think Mellor May start at Centre back with McGowan. If he does and no Isherwood he has to go in January

 

Long throws back on the menu then?

 

My last visit to Luton McCall got sent off and was sat on the exec box roof down one side till told to move, Then Mr Kettle the ref gave us a last minute dubious penalty to draw the game, Then there was fighting in the tunnel and boots thrown, Just a quiet afternoon in Luton

 

Any City fans ammassing in town? I’m on my way. 31 bus route

 

hows the weather, might this get postponed?

 

Terrible here, wind and torrential rain!
