I am less worried about who will be in our team next year in the Championship than the morale and bond between VK and his key players. There is something sadly gone astray with many players a shadow of the team that kicked off in August. Look at the decline in players like Roberts, Amdouini, Benson,...

TBH I'm slowly getting yo the dotage where I don't really care that much anymore, I've bever felt so disassociated from the club. It just isn't what it used to be. You are not on your own. I sensed this widespread yesterday with our away support , who were happy to sing cynical songs all match. The...

Sad that it takes a sending off and a ban for Brownhill , for Cullen to get a place in the playing 11. One of the the few of our players who looked comfortable yesterday in taking the ball, and put a proper shift in. I appreciate he does not have the physique and athleticism for this cruel League , ...

He needs to go and play for Neil Warnock for several weeks-make or break. I suspect the latter

warksclaret

To be honest there were 5 or 6 of our players who I felt did not care and just wanted the game to end, so any reaction from Brownhill formed part of that apathy. I have not witnessed that attitude in a team since Stan was manager. I am really struggling to see how morale can be lifted in the next do...

Trafford 6. Another error in the form of a hospital pass which changed the game Assignon 5 Esteve 7 MOM. Our best player and someone we can really develop O Shea 5 Taylor 5. Disappointing with distribution and space he gave his winger Brownhill 4 -hardly saw him Berge 6 JBG 5-really struggle to see ...

Just got back from that shocking performance, and had time to reflect . For me we are going backwards at a far rate of knots, Its obvious VK is not learning -quite the opposite. All he can throw in are his own PL experiences and how he has seen it all before, at the same time trying to convince ever...

A £23m spend and we have seen some of the most spirited performances seen in the PL this season . His handling of the Tom Lockyer near fatal incident was magnificent.He is for me close to being the PL manager of the season. If they stay up no question

warksclaret

Nothing would give me a bigger lift when I go to Palace Saturday in knowing Odobert is one wing and Benson the other. Before anyone on here starts telling me we need JBG for his defensive duties-sorry I cant live with that. We need a win against Palace, not setting up for a draw or defeat. If we pla...

I can fully live and accept the explanation given to both long term injured players Koleosho and Ramsey. We witnessed their injuries and soon realised they were both serious long term knee injuries.WE need to give these guys time and space hoping they come back fitter , stronger and fully recovered ...

Their game is to have all 11 at full intensity, with every one at the top of their game.Then you inevitably get a second half last night when you meet Liverpool at the top of their game and there is nothing left in the tank for Luton to contain them

warksclaret

When Tarks and Mee left us I was confident that Tarks would continue to do well, and he is definitely showing this of late with some sterling performances. With Mee I thought he would be a great squad player at Brentford and do well when called on. However in the two seasons there he has been quite ...

The club has made a habit of giving players that extra one/at times extra two year contract. Invariably they have been our better paid players. Presently we have Rodriguez and Cork. Jay may get a few minutes because of the poor planning by the club in securing decent strikers. Jack I suspect we will...

When it comes to technicalities about lap tops/smart phones I am at the bottom of the pile. However after playing around on my iphone all day yesterday on my IPHONE wallet is a ticket with the heading SOUTH LONDON AND PROUD with my seat details. I was expecting to see just a QR code on the wallet , ...

warksclaret

There's no substitute for game time-thats how players grow. Take a look at O'Shea-I was not on my own who thought he was a liability after 4-5 games. Despite the still occasional glitch, he is becoming our best defender. Problem with our squad is too big, and at times its hard for some players to ev...

warksclaret

The reason SD managed to keep us in the PL for the great majority of those 8 or so years, was that we were more like Luton in terms of hard work, fight and playing for each other rather than the current Burnley, where at least 3 or 4 players each week show nothing like the determination and fight re...

warksclaret

Jack Cork has been frozen out because of his age, I understand he was told this by the management team quite some time ago. I'm lead to believe that he was told he wouldn't start another league game for the club. Of course he isn't as quick as he was, I don't think he was ever the paciest, but has ...

warksclaret

Utterly ridiculous that he's obviously fit yet he can't get a single kick in a struggling and basically already relegated side. I am not in the "VK OUT CAMP". However if a switched on manager was to join right now , I suspect within 3-4 games he would sniff out our best 11, and the best system to s...

warksclaret

Feel for Jack, went from club captain to being frozen out. If I am right I don't think he has started in the PL under VK, and probably only come on for a few minutes. Cannot see if he is not in the plans why he is humiliated by being put on the bench. You might as well have Messengo on there for the...

The catylists in the team who made it the success it was, are either not with us, or out of favour, or injured. In order of importance (my opinion)- Tella, Benson, Beyer, Zarourry, Cullen,Maatsen,Roberts. Some of these were sensational. So what makes people think its a given to go straight back up i...

On the year we went down I came to the Turf to see WHU. He was the best player I had seen that year, and better than I even thought he was. A proper Rolls Royce

warksclaret

I thought Berkeley and Lokongo were outstanding today, against a United that whether you like it or not have been on some run recently. Genuinely feel the Luton crowd is worth a goal in every game

warksclaret

We are a side that spends most of the time on the back-foot. To score goals we need to be very quick indeed in the PL at counter-attacking.Its something we are shocking at. My footballing friends who know I support Burnley tell me how laborious we are when attacking.Cries for Rodriguez and JBG to be...

Wow £250k for Morris !!. I reckon we could have bought him from Alan Pace's petty cash

Carlton Morris £1.3m; Ogbene free transfer; Adebayo (I suspect peanuts). Would you not love them in our team

When I was working , 4 years ago,and going to London, I regularly drove to Hillingdon on the Piccadily and Metropolitan line, and never failed to get a spot in their cark park. In those days it was £5 for all day. If you get the Metropolitan , there is a very fast version that will take you to the B...

I think when CT writes a report like that it absolutely confirms how bad the season has gone, and there is nothing in the narrative that can be challenged or disputed

Last night , motd only talked about how good Arsenal are . They gave VK a free ride . Are all the backroom staff just "yes men " ? Don't any of them see that his tactics aren't working and playing just 2 in midfield in the prem is crazy. Been saying this for a while. The coaches must surely see cer...

I always find it so surprising when people think promotion next year is nailed on. The championship is a very tough league and the squad we will have is definitely not certain. Agreed-went to see Middlesborough yesterday, lying 13th before the Leicester game. I have to be honest playing them and be...

warksclaret

Before we went up VK used to say we may have been top of the Championship, but in England we were only the 21st best team . I wonder what he would say right now if we were to remind him. For me today, Leicester, Saints, Leeds are already arguably above us. Maybe Ipswich and several others too

warksclaret

I think in the next few weeks , unless we see a miracle in results, the Press are going to start escalating just how poor we are. Its been brewing for a while now, maybe at least held temporarily by two spirited away displays v Liverpool and City. Last night on Talksport we got big mouth Jamie O'Har...

warksclaret

Absolutely. Arsenal, I'd argue, are favourites to win the league and, off today's showing, are a much better all-round side than Liverpool or City. Their midfield is incredibly strong, the best of the lot. Agreed a phenomenal club who have found form. However would Luton Town have rolled over like ...

warksclaret

You would have thought Luton would have been the stand out side to go down with a very low points total. However their ability to take a risk on a few experienced players, their fight and spirit, and the leadership and motivation of their very talented young manager all exceed the bringing in of so ...

Read the comments post match, then watched the FULL game on SKY. Often critical comments are extreme when you are beaten easily, but the lack of effort and concentration were embarassing of a PL side Trafford 6. Cannot blame him for any goal-simply so well taken Assignon 6-against one of the PL's be...

Cowards is probably the wrong description-maybe we are lightweight and lacking quality. Who would have thought when we spent £100m in Summer that in February we would be being humiliated 5-0 and were bringing on the likes of JBG and Rodriguez. Morale must be rock bottom with players like Benson,Cull...

What is paramount is reducing our wage bill, which will help the club. Cork,Rodriguez, JBG,Taylor , Brownhill will all be on mega wages. Peacock Farrell, Bastian, McNally, Weghorst are others that should be got off our books. We know clearly where we need to recruit

My fear is that VK has been badly beaten up, and he does not know when the next beating is coming, but its imminent. He was the "can do no wrong of the Championship", with Spurs and Chelsea supposedly interested in him. He thought he could be rubbing shoulders this season with some of the finest coa...

Without a leader on the pitch, and without the experience needed at this level, we really are on a hiding to nothing. I don't feel sorry for him, as he bears most of the responsibility for where we are, but there really is precious little that he can say that will make a difference or assuage the f...

I like Browny and I think he gives his all. I’ll be glad to see him lining up for us next season in the Championship. But in basic terms I think the biggest reason we went down the season before last, and will repeat that feat this year, is our failure to replace an £8m midfielder with someone bett...

The effort from the players was only surpassed by the three wise men in the dug out. No interaction at all with the team. They could have done with three white sticks

VK must have some chin-just heard him on MOTD

warksclaret

It was embarassing and spineless. Had we lost but everyone given 90% or more of what Fofana provided, I could have lived with it

warksclaret

My worry is that VK is now a "beaten man" and will he have the same drive, ambition and ideas when we are in the Championship again . More significantly would you trust him again in the PL if we got promoted based on his tactics, buying new players, and team selection

warksclaret

If anyone on here thinks going down and coming straight back up next season is a given, then think again. I have seen nine games this year in the Championship, including teams like Leicester (a number of times), Ipswich, Leeds,Coventry, Hull, WBA and there are some very well organised teams in there...

warksclaret

I think VK is surrounded with YES men. How on earth is he not playing a three midfield with Berge more advanced, and not allowing Cullen to come back in a midfield three.How come Muric has not played a single PL game with our defensive record
