    Very young team without key players wins against a very good Luton side, yet there's numerous negative posts against the young players. ******* weird. They've done incredible today!

    Very few negative threads and those threads are full of people praising the players after one person started a negative thread.

    The negative comments tend to come from those who know how easy professional football is. They've probably played at a decent standard themselves to be fair.

    Lots of criticism towards Brown and Williams (i.e. disproportionate) today, after a good victory. Sad to see.

    No negativity from me. I thought overall we were excellent yesterday. Luton were a tidy side and will be closer to the top than the bottom come the end of the season. We were missing several key players and still looked impressive for long periods of the game and came out with another good win. What's to be negative about?

    Being honest I can't find anything negative about yesterday's performance apart from
    saying that our involvement seemed to wane a bit in the second half and Luton could quite easily have fluked another. The wind had some influence on the game and maybe Luton upped their work rate in the second half to negate us. All three of our goals were well taken and in the end, we deserved to win. You can see the team are together the way that they go into a huddle when we score. Stendels enthusiasm and absolute joy when we score is good to see as well. No doubt in my mind he's committed to the Club and the lads are 100% with him and Winkler.
