    After only managing to get a single point from games against 2 of the bottom 4 sides in the league in our last 2 games, can it get better today against another of the bottom 4? Let’s hope so!

    What a line up .... almost a 5 - 5 ! at least 4 - 1 - 4 - 1
    WHY is our injury problems so intense EVERY SEASON ... AT LEAST A DEFEAT TODAY WONT BE HARD TO SWALLOW! AND THE BREAK IS IS ON THE WAY!
    A possible run at top 6 faded away after last 3 results and we should be high enough to make the 54 point relegation!
    Come on lads do your best today and at least draw!

    So far a familiar story. Much like the Cardiff & Huddersfield games, we are by far the better side, but can’t score when on top. We can’t drop more points against bottom 4 sides.

    We have no height in the box, so many balls crossed in and we can’t capitalise.

    Powder puff up front, loads of the ball.. Blackpool find it easy to defend our strike attempts

    We need 2 out and out strikers to get anything from this. Playing 1 up top is too easy to defend against. Get Weimann up top, he is not the same player when he plays further back in the team….

    Blackpool had best chance, one mistake by Vyner miss timing bounce of ball let them in and should have scored..
    we just aren’t clicking up front and trying to walk it in every time.. just think we need to be more adventurous, change up our approach a bit, use a bit of intelligence.. we’re so predictable..
    I think if one goes in, we could have a feast..

    AH HALF TIME ... 0 - 0
    OH dear 66% and loads of shots hard to see what to change Bell is a striker but add for whom and would he do better than say replacing Nahki? maybe Bell for Sykes? ... MAYBE NOT maybe go 4 1 3 2 move Weimann up with Nahki

    They have just shown a stat on Sky, we have by a mile the worst record at losing points from winning positions; 54 points since Aug 21, next worst is Reading on 40 points. Something the Manager, coaches and the team HAVE to improve upon if we are going to progress.

    Great to Scott on the scoresheet. 2-0, hopefully game over.

    Sort of an assist by Cornick, still not sure what he brings to us, maybe a slow burner.
    Nice finish by Scott.. 2-0 should be 3 pts

    Don’t want to take anything away from us but Blackpool have been dreadful and don’t see them staying up on this performance

    a goal from Sam Bell would be icing on the cake and a sign for Luton!

    They are poor, but not much worse than Cardiff or Huddersfield tbh. Cardiff took their 2 chances against us, and we didn’t do that, same against Huddersfield, but today we did.
