Poor defending for the goal. But in what dimension of reality is that a free kick in the first place? Their player just ambles into Sarr and falls to the ground. Pathetic refereeing!

Much better second half and a great header by young Eiting to score. Luton are a bloody horrible team to play against and the type of opponent we always struggle against. So, not a bad point in the end.

Man of the Match?
Unexamined gave it to Hoggy. Yeah, he played well. Stearman had another solid enough match at the back, as did the Nabygator. Don't think Big Ben Hamer had much to do. Pipa again giving us momentum going forward, had a big hand to play in the goal. Josh kept trying, but was too greedy at times. I won't knock him for that. It's a good thing for strikers to be greedy, just look up now and again.
I'm giving it to Carel Eiting though. Played as well as Hoggy, putting himself about, making himself available for passes, putting some nice passes through, but crucially scoring his first Town goal.

I'd probably agree with hogg tbf. Pipa came into it more when dia went off, eiting was missing in the first half but came into it in the second. Toffo was good, but not him best game. Good to see ward get some minutes even if he didn't do much.
A while now until the next game, hopefully town line some b team fixtures up so we can get our football fix

Yet another game where we have loads of possesion and very little cutting edge in the last third of the pitch.
Comical defending for the Luton goal, Stearman nowhere near his man for the initial header and then followed up with Diakahby strolling back behind the goalscorer as if he didn't have a care in the world.
Town goal, a beautiful piece of play and a belting header by Eiting.
Gripes- Campbell, still does nowhere near enough for me.
Koroma, get into decent positions but then more often than not chooses the wrong option.
Oggy- Failed to mention in comms that Koroma had been booked whilst waxing lyrical about the game..was he on drugs in the first half.
Thankfully we have the international break and a chance for the majority of players to have a much needed rest. The squad is light and struggle to play 2 games a week.

Good point about Koroma, Wakey. He got booked very early for a needless tug. Then went in on a wild tackle. Could easily have been down to ten men after about 15 mins.
As for Diakhaby. Why is he even there defending? He's our rapid breakaway man. If Hamer catches it, it should be kicked straight out for him to chase. And if he's stood on the halfway line, the bloke who scored on Saturday has to stay back to mark him.

The old coaching manual says for every one man left up, 2 should stay back. Or it used to.
Leave Koroma who's not tall up with mbenza/dia/maybe even pipa. The amount of chances on the break we'd create...
Have ward/Campbell Mark the near post as they have been doing, everyone else picks up a man, maybe put eiting close to the taker or on the back post too, possibly edge of the area. Just because we're defending a corner doesn't mean we cant be attacking seconds later, how many naff corners do professional teams take nowadays

We used to pass to back to our keeper from a corner to stop the other side getting it, not oh so very long ago
