Jon Russell 1-0 but they've got a pen
Nicholls or Connell as I like to call him saves it and earns a £1 for p4p
Sarr 2-0

I'm willing to pay for that. Nicholls or Connell as I like to call him, was going the right way.
I've been desperate to play my penalty saved card.

Well what a great night that was. A tense first half where Luton probably had the better of, but never looked too dangerous.
Then early in the second half, a moment of magic and a possible goal of the season contender fro Jonny Russell. How anyone can say that he didn't mean it,is beyond comprehension. What, other than trying to score, was he doing?
The penalty? Soft. Soft as the softest penalty ever given. Of all the things the ref had let go during the match, he gives a penalty for that? Bizarre! Glad he missed it.
But then, O'Brien's offering his sympathy to the lad who missed when their no 4 comes flying over and flattens him. How could that be anything other than a straight red card for violent conduct?
Then on comes Electric Naby. What a star! He was absolutely loving it.
Lewis got man of the match. Could've been anyone in the side. They're a team and play as a team.

We started off the game really well, on the front foot and attacking Luton, we looked decent. Then for the remainder of the half we looked like we'd never met each other before. Passes going astray left right and center. Nervous on the ball and going backwards rather than forwards which in turn unsettled the crowd.
The referee let pretty much everything go in the first half IMO for both sides when he could've booked players from both sides.
Second half, how Luton didn't score in the opening minute I don't know but luckily they didn't.
Great finish from Russell to open the scoring, I don't know about anyone else but we were taken by surprise when it went in. It just looked like a hopeless lob that was going over or wide from our angle and the crowd reaction around the ground would suggest so did a lot of others.
That goal sparked Two things.
1) Luton trying to attack a bit more
2) The ref finding his cards.
Was it a pen, the ref certainly took his time to give it but you can see a tug on the Luton shirt and if you give the ref something to look at it can go either way. Personally I thought it was a penalty and did so at the time. Thankfully he slotted it wide.
I missed what happened to O'brien at the time as I was celebrating the penalty miss but managed to catch it on the telly box replay in the Exec box behind. This won't be popular but I think the ref got it spot on, It's a shove in the chest which LO'B makes the most of. It's not in the face or anywhere near the neck.
All that did though was show that the ref had lost total control mainly due to him not putting his mark on the game in the first half, yellow cards galore in that melee. He then books Nicholls for time wasting which got the crowds back up even more. Nicholls knew exactly what he was doing and if he can't catch the ball the Luton forward threw at him then I would suggest being a keeper isn't for him.
Nabby Sarr, I feared the worst when Nabby came on to replace a forward and the team were looking for instruction of who was to play where. Communication from the bench wasn't the best especially when you consider Holmes had only just come on. Surely they would have said what the plan was going to be for him to spread the word around the team.
Anyway fear not, Nabby got a couple of crucial clearances in and popped up with a free header which he had to stoop for at the far post to put the game out of reach for Luton.
I'm now on the Play off Bus, I'm still saying we won't win them but if we failed to make them from this position then it would be a disaster

I was fearing this game....we never beat Luton.
But hey ho, a win is a win. Yes lucky for some of it, but overall I think it was deserved.
Penalty was a penalty, soft though. Russell goal was absolutely meant.....what a finish. No one has mentioned what a great assist by Pipa to find him with the throw in.
Set pieces are a gold mine for us this season.....keep working on them. What we lose against bigger spenders in this division we gain back from set pieces.
Luton boy should have been sent off for push on LO'B. Was not at the face or neck but was done when LO'B couldn't see it.....and anyway you look at it it was violent conduct.
Made me laugh though when LO'B said in interview after game that he was just celebrating with the fans about the penalty miss, not insulting the player that missed.
Brilliant performances by Rhodes and Sarr when they both came on. Made such a difference. Squad game now.
One win in our remaining 5 games and we are definitely in the playoffs. No one could have predicted we would be in them at the start of the season. What a turnaround.
Corberan has lasted longer than Bielsa this season....who would have though that?

As a former member of the goalies union, owt that hits the woodwork and stays out is a save.
Hell they don't count as a shot on target either.
Regarding that play-off bus. My mate Joe will be Coral(led) into coughing up £95 big one's if Town finish in the Top 6. He's currently offering me £75 and loose change to cash out early - it was £60 before kick-off last night. I'm playing with his money anyway and he had a few of his quids back off me on the donkey derby on Saturday. Letting it ride.
