    After Newcastle, Liverpool and now this 'performance', I fear the fat lady might be clearing her throat ready to start singing at us at the end of the season.

    That was a floundering, clueless, relegation haunted display, I'm afraid to admit.

    There has to be pressure now on the players and manager. If we loose the next 2 prem games hughton will be under major pressure then.

    Well that was a completely humiliating embarrassment wasn't it? What a pathetic way to treat the paying fans.

    Terrible display. It will be interesting to see what happens in our next match. They really need to give a big performance to get the fans back on side. Our movement was terrible, very slow and our passing was non existent at times. We just seemed to play the whole game in front of them making it easy for Luton to defend. Very rarely did we get beyond their back-line and sadly this has been a familiar story of late. However it is not the end of the world but they sure as hell need to show some passion and give a big performance over the next few games.

    It demands a reaction, a real hammer blow.

    Well the 4-4-2 obviously didn't work in the end.

    It probably would've if it wasn't Jackson and Kane leading it. Such a shame we can't send Kane back and find a league 1 team for Jackson to piss off to.

    Well done Luton, good luck to ´em, we got what we deserved. If nothing else, this will hopefully shake everyone at the club into realising that Premier League by name isn´t always synonymous with Premier League in action, things have got to drastically change round in 3 days or we´ll risk getting another hammering when Spurs turn up.

    I think today showed that we really are a 1 striker team. Jackson ran into space a few times, but Kane did literally nothing, a complete waste of money. Morison has been poor of late, so if anything happens to Holt we are up a familiar creek without a paddle.

    Top of the range comment. First time I've had anything to smile about since 3 p.m. this afternoon - before the match kicked off <ok>

    No goals in 3 games says it all. Sod the expensive January prices get someone class in for Christ sake.

    It's also the first time a premier league side has been knocked out of the fa cup by a non-league side since 1989. Can we stop setting the **** records and start setting some good ones please

    Why are the two starting strikers getting the blame. Holt was totally inept when he came on. And if anybody can convince me that Ryan Bennet is a Prem defender then please try. Allowing Conf defenders to trouble him all game must have destroyed him today.
    People have been clamouring for the return of Fox. He has no intention of doing anything other than easy. Surman is totally out of his class. E Bennet has pace and never tried to go past his defender. Run, stop, pass back to full back, take return, repeat previous steps one to four until opposition are comfortably in place. Howson puzzles me. I'm sure he can do better but doesn't.
    I really am totally upset at today's performance and this one will stay with me until Wednesday. I hope someone tells CH that he has to change it and fast.
