Quite a few games affecting the bottom end of the table
tonight, Fulham v Everton might be the best.

Hoping for some good results.

Dodgson the only one of our 3 at Dundee starting tonight, playing left side of a back 3.
Costelloe (played lwb on Saturday) makes way for Beck. Costelloe on the bench.
Mellon has a minor injury, not in the squad tonight.

The pass from Sambi Lokonga for their second was outstanding. Why we decided not to sign him I don’t know.

Fair play to Luton. A team that wants to stay in the PL and have a good chance of doing so.

We deserve exactly what we're going to get this season.

One-way traffic at Notts Forest, Arsenal camped in Notts' half, still 0-0.

Who would have thought we would be 7 points behind Luton at the end of Jan :lol: what a shambles.

Not really, Luton are doing much better than anyone could have expected.

I will certainly give them credit, they are in the trenches together, but we should be doing better than we are. This season has been a shambles so far.

Coupled with the fact that Burnley are performing far worse than many expected.

I know some people get their knickers wet if you praise Luton on here, but they are simply a much better football team than Burnley are.

Staggering how they've overtaken us after our respective Championship seasons.

I'll make sure I enjoy the next hour or so of it only being 4 points then (obviously I hope I am wrong).

I agree, they have a bit of Dyche about them and that’s usually enough for teams to stay up.

What Edwards is getting out of the likes of Ogbene etc… is truly special. Players like him are playing levels above their natural ability.

Yeah, I’ve been resigned to us being relegated for a while now, but it’s still fairly galling to see how our season has panned out.

Luton are doing better than us because they used the transfer window to sign players who would improve their team. We signed players to trade for profit.

If anyone is to stay up and it not have an effect on us, I hope it is Luton. They really want it and it shows, and it would be a great two fingers up to the pundits and fans who wrote them off before a ball was kicked.

Sheffield and Luton showing the advantage of starting the season with a squad who've met each other.

Did Palace not do their homework on Diaz. Even I know that his party trick is cutting in onto his right and bending it in.

That's what they are, a team, I don't feel we are, too much chopping and changing.

It was clear after just a few games, if you watched them, that they were better equipped and managed than us.

You reckon Kompany signed a contract extension because players were being bought for profit and not to improve the team ?

We signed a squad of individual players with potential, abandoning last seasons DNA in the process.

Luton have signed team players to augment their squad with some PL nous.

Who'da thunk theyd be in a better position to survive?
