Personally I'd prefer Kean.

Guessing Kean's injured?

I'd prefer macca and it's shown since she has been injured how many we are conceding, his a good keeper for us.

I hope Killip does not get injured.

Why fcuk is Wilks not starting ?

Come on Town

Russ just said on the RH interview that Luton are good, but not "inflammable"  

Quoted from HertsGTFC

Think the greater experience of Matt is a better bet myself, with Wilks ready to come on if needed. Matt was playing well last week before he got injured.

Anyway, about to set off and walk to BP.

UTM.

Christ. That was our only hope.

They will be if we win the 'match.'  

Who is the guy on the pitch with the other players with no number on his shorts?

Nathan Arnold's sat a few rows in front of me in upper.

Not happy with Fenty, not happy with Slade, not happy with our recruitment, not happy with our form, our style of play or the way we lurch from one mistake to the next off the pitch.

But...

Come 3pm on match day, it all has to be put to one side. Let's support the players, hope they put on a good performance and bring home the three points.

One point in the circumstance would be ok, but Luton aren't Man City. We're at home. UTM!

For some reason the Scunthorpe game is being aired on iFollow.
Anyone else got this problem?

Trying to listen to the game on MP on my hols but  Scunthorpe commentary on. Can anyone help?

Yeah Scunny on mine too 😔😡

Cracking shot from Summerfield at distance that hit the bar

I have too and it's not the first time. Gone off altogether now with the usual we will be right back music.

The technical problem we'll be right back music is quite jaunty

Now all I’m getting is the I Follow music. I can’t believe they charge for this service.

Commentary not even on Humberside or radio. Town game only on Freeview.

One strange thing I noticed in a previous game was, in the commentary we were attacking and it came up on Sky that we were one down and it was at least a minute before I follow caught Up.Not Quite Live?

It was the same last season. Pretty much decided it's not worth paying just for commentary since the other videos end up being put up for free anyway. They removed full game videos from the service and only allow overseas people to stream and view game videos now so not worth it. Paying for commentary service that doesn't work and is available on radio anyway.

Back on

Hoooray.....commentary is back on.

Quoted from Kris2

It depends where you live

Quoted from promotion plaice

He is Forecast in disguise

Flashscores just gave Luton a 1-0 lead then a minute later cancelled it...phew

Ref then gives Luton a corner but linesman over rules him and gives us a goal kick!!

That's all of our luck for 2018 used up then

Quoted from HertsGTFC

Why fcuk is Wilks not starting ?

In place of who?

Wahey, red card for Jordan Cook

Got chance now  Cook 2 yellows

Usually we have to win now !! Come on Town !!

Joe Ironsides scores kiddys third, whilst Jamie devitt puts Carlisle 1 up against the detested veggies.shrews n scunts both 1 up

GET commentary says Cook should/could have gone for the first bad challenge on Rose. Pushed his luck a bit, silly boy.

Scunny pegged at 1-1 according to Scoreflashes...mind you they have Town down to 10 men too...what with the lag on the iFollow/Scunny commentary I felt more up to date with the action 30 years ago on Ceefax

A number of teams below us are winning or drawing at the minute, we need to get something or the gap will close again (long way to go of course)

Decent 1st half not much goal threat most shots from 25yrds out and apart from summers bar rattler a little wayward at best. Luton missed a sitter after we cleared a corner off the line but otherwise have been easily contained. Fair sending off deffo both yellows and had to go. Davies struggling at times just seems off his game, lots of poor control and passes when not under pressure.
There is hope UTM

Is there any radio commentary any more?

Played well i think. Im happy so far

Decent first half with Summerfield hitting the crossbar from one of his long range shots that usually sail far over the bar. The sending off was after 2 yellow cards and he probably should have been sent off after the first challenge. We need to stop their centre half from playing out at the back and picking passes, close him down and you shut down the way they are trying to play.

Good effort so far Town we just need to support the forward players a bit more and get a goal or two, we can win this.

Right wing back looking a bit less wardrobey now - Mills on for Davies.

😂😂 great start !!

how

Oh dear🙄

Just like last week - minds still in the dressing room. Good save from the free kick I believe but too slow on the follow-uo

ffs.... 😡

Sounds like we're reacting quite well

Come on Town... Dembele replaces Rose.

I appreciate we're up against a team that's likely to win promotion to League 1, but they're being made to play the majority of the match with 10 men and we're at home. We probably have a bigger squad than them.

The fact that we're losing at the moment is most likely down to a lack of confidence, a lack of belief, a lack of requisite skill throughout the team and I'm afraid it all stems back to Russell Slade.

He's got to hope that the players can find something from somewhere otherwise even more fans will drop away and we'll slip closer to those relegation places.

Two or three games apart, this season has been abysmal to watch.

We may have a lot more players than Luton, but the average skill level per player???

We are losing as Killip appears to have problems with anything above his head height

I don't always agree with AB, but he's right.  Why are we still playing 3 centre backs v one attacker?

Yeah, that Killip, why can't he score more goals in a game

Quoted from buckstown

I think we've learnt already that we'd prefer quality  over the quantity that we have

F**k off Slade you fraud

Quoted from lee65

I don't always agree with AB, but he's right.  Why are we still playing 3 centre backs v one attacker?

It's staggering that we're one down against 10 men with less than 20 mins left yet have three centre backs on the pitch and the new striker still sat on the bench.

We're losing at home against 10 men and we play with three centre halves. Maybe he's protecting our goal difference for the end of season scramble

Quoted from Rodley Mariner

It's staggering that we're one down against 10 men with less than 20 mins left yet have three centre backs on the pitch and the new striker still sat on the bench.

Quite. I'd rather lose 2-0 if it meant we'd given it a go at getting a point or the win.

Having 5 across the middle was working ok now Dembele has come on he’s playing as a 3rd striker so effectively we’ve lost a man in midfield that’s why we are now struggling to break them down

Another week another humiliation. Just another day for a town fan really.

Day le Southwell scores guiseley said equaliser

The only glimmer is that VGR and Chesterfield are losing, and Barnet have been pegged back by Cheltenham

Any idea on the shots, any on target?

Don't be daft we need to keep it tight, hang on in there  Slade only likes single goal defeats and we don't want Luton to beat us out of sight 🤔

Wilks comes on....3 goals in the last 8 for Town...no pressure...

Slade out...10 men FFS...Killip lucky boy.

Quoted from Gaffer58

Any idea on the shots, any on target?

According to BBC we've had 13 (5) v 6(3) , on target in brackets

Just shows how sad its got and sorry state that I'm almost happy we've actually had more shots than them  

This is serious,  so serious
Please “Slade & Wilko Out”
Out,Out, before it’s too late......

I can take losing 1-0 to the league leaders. I can even, just about, forgive losing 1-0 to the league leaders when they've had ten men for a long time. But keeping five defenders on at the back at home to 10 men when you're losing is absolutely unforgivable. Slade out.

The shots thing, their keeper has only had to make one save that a Sunday League keeper might have struggled with, To think I was almost feeling optimistic at h/t   F@K OFF Slade your an embarrasment to Grimsby Town

Isn't that 4 consecutive home defeats? Yet another 0 return - this time against 10 men. The writing is on the wall. It has been for some time. Blindly, pigheadedly on we go......

Down to 17th now

Sladeball and Fenty eat it up

The only good news is the teams below us have gained few points today.

Slade cant blame the ref this week

Quoted from HertsGTFC

Can't blame Killip for the goal, he palmed the freekick away. got to blame who ever it was who failed to follow it up afterwards

I used to cancel things so I could go to the match-in future I think I'll be looking for things to do so I can't go. Slade jack it in Please-you can always use your skills to get another job- Tesco  Asda Hartlepools.

Quoted from Madeleymariner

Sorry I was wrong. it was the refs fault for making us play against 10 men
