Hudders 2 down already. They look terrible despite the win on Saturday (when sounds like stoke were the better side for most of it)

Luton’s crap start continuing as well. 2 down to Brizzle - desperate stuff

Luck is half the battle in this league. Reckon they'll end up being comfortable this season.

Bannon dropped to bench by Wednesday....had big bust up with manager.
Always liked him. If he was free and cheap would have been a great option.

QPR Blackpool, very high tempo physical game with some decent football thrown in.

I’m beginning to fear for us. QPR display in the first half would have torn us to shreds. Pressing, energy, speed. Chair and Dikes for them, Yates and Bowler for POOL better than what we’ve got unless we can get Joao and Meite fit again and at the same time!

Not the first time they’ve lost a comfortable lead and conceded the equaliser in injury time recently either

Because we never put teams under enough sustained pressure to force a mistake, let alone two?

When did we last score 2 own goals in a game ?

I do vaguely recall a match way back (not involving us) in which a player scored 2 goals for his team and 2 own goals. I think it was a pretty high profile player, Chris Nichols perhaps ?

True. Anyway enjoy tonight Stranded. Sadly I doubt there will be more than 10,000 or 11,000 of us at the game tonight.

You there Zip?

Quite looking forward to it. My expectations are zero so anything better than 0-2 will be a bonus

Rather scathing interview from N.Pearson yesterday - said officiating is at an “all time low” and threatening to quit as a result of it. Strange outburst after a 2-0 win - gotta think he’ll be in trouble for that

On a side note, looking like Luton are going to really struggle this season, really does show the impact momentum can have on a season

Not sure ‘Hicks and Senior’ is one player !
