    saying their the most consistent and deserve to go up Etc .
    Now I’m not bitter or spiteful but up till now They have won one game more than us and that could change in the course of next two games .
    So I fail to see where their consistency comes into it before close of season .
    If they get promoted or Championship fair enough they’ll have deserved it and I’ll praise them then but to say at this stage they’ve deserved it on the fact of the stats then that is wrong .any of the three chasing teams can match or better their results before end of season .
    Rant over

    They do deserve it. They’ve got a far smaller budget than us & Portsmouth & certainly less than Sunderland. Some achievement if they get back to back promotions

    They deserve if they get there .
    There’s a big difference in giving it them before season ends though .
    If they make it I’ll give them all the credit they deserve and more but I’ll not concede until the big lass sings and to give them stats that only just beat ours and we could surpass before end of season is just daft for me .
    The tables after everybody’s played 46 games is the one that counts .

    Not on about praise I’m on about them saying they have been more consistent .

    It's a disgrace that the Marras haven't broken 100 points this season.

    Debts wiped out, parachute payments, a 50,000-seater stadium and a £4million striker. At least one lad on 40k-a-week.

    It'd be staggering enough if we finish above them. But Luton? An entire side of their stadium is unused executive boxes! They can barely get five figures into that place.

    Even if they lost their last two games they’ve had an incredible season & deserve loads of praise

    Probably just perception.
    My perception is since Xmas that have been very consistent(until last couple of games), whereas rest have had blips

    They have but that’s since Christmas . Look st the whole season and they’ve had blips .
    The stats say they have won one game more than us with two to play .

    They deserve what they get, but no way is that a Championship side. Whereas the current Reds squad should be competitive, if we keep it together & strengthen..
    I'm currently out of contract & cheap..:)

    They have up to now but that could change.
    My point is that if they finish the season in the top two they deserve it and deserve full praise but to say they deserve to go up at this point because they have been the more consistent team with two games to go that could make them the third consistent team is premature .

    Almost every teams fans have praised our football and said that we are the best team they’ve played but that doesn’t mean we deserve to go up but that’s what they are implying about Luton .
    They saying they have been the most consistent up to now but only one win separates them from us and Pompey and that could alter .

    You’re having a rant about some bloke having an opinion on a team at the top of the table being consistently good when there are still two whole games to play.

    Surely there are better things to get annoyed about.
