    Fantastic result and for me the most important result of the season so far. These are the games that we could have crumbled under the pressure but we are showing a tenacity and grit that we haven’t necessarily shown so far this season and we’ve shown we can play good football but also mix it up with the more physical teams you will always get in this league. If Luton had won tonight it would have given others a blueprint of how to beat us but we’ve passed the test and hopefully teams will fear us now. Our confidence will be sky high moving forward. Can’t wait for the next game!!

    Isidor apparently blew kisses to their fans as they were walking off the pitch at the end, class

    Think that is the kind of game where people sit up and really start taking us seriously. Backs to the wall for vast parts of the game. Showed fantastic resilience. 2 goals of fantastic individual quality win us the game. We’ve beaten Luton and Burnley this season, arguably the best two teams at each end of the ‘style’ spectrum. I think that shows an awful lot. Starting to believe. Crucify me.

    Genuinely didn’t believe we had that sort of fight, determination and grit in us. Over the moon

    We’ve got a good bit of bastard about us this season, it’s about time too mind, Patterson was superb at it all game today, winds me up like nothing else when it’s done to us so glad to see we’ve started giving it back

    He was shocking wasn’t he.
    Every call he got wrong and the Luton bias was unreal.

    Sunderland are dangerous when on a roll with momentum. Get that stadium packed out Saturday

    Brilliant result, brilliant tough battling performance. Hoofball v Football, football won.

    Think it was Jobe who challenged their keeper at full time after he grabbed Mepham for absolutely no reason. 19 years old man, hes becoming a beast.

    And why would he? Means he can’t keep his Rhetoric!! It’s a joke. I watched the SAFC stream so didn’t get that! But there’s a desperation for Luton to do well, despite them being utterly terrible to watch. But like the mags really

    That was always going to be a physical battle band we won the battle.

    I am going to be drunk in a bit.

    Have we made a better signing than Mepham since relegation from the prem? I think he is the biggest factor on our on field performance this year. He is elite level.

    Worst commentator we've had in a long time. Mepham goes down injured in the 1st half after a clear clash of heads n he thinks he's play acting - even tho it was the most obvious head knock you'll see

    Now's not the time to worry about Saturday, we should enjoy this result but we need to get something out of the next game so these 2 away wins are not for nothing
