I’d give up mate .Tell me how they scored their 3 goals
They could have said no, but he was behind Batth, Ballard, O'Nien, Anderson, cirkin and alise for a spot at CEntre Back.
Their simply has to be a balance in the squad , you can't have players who want to play regularly, being 7th choice, with no cup games left to play
Unless you want them to be able to see into the future
Sounds like moaning just for the sake of it
Of course we would have fared better with Wright last night, but could anyone seriously say in January they thought we might get to the play off semi second leg and desperately need him ?
Their high press didn't score their goals.Tell me why we could not escape their high press last night.
Is this little Luton who were in the play offs last season as well?And 2 proper central defenders is not enough.
Little old Luton had 2 playing , one on the bench and one who didnt make the squad.
He was outstanding last season especially the latter end.His game time was definitely going to be limited mate, but he was a good leader to have around the club. Last night would have been the perfect game for him as well as he wouldn’t have to worry about pace.
At the end of the day though, he was over 30. Under the model, the loan fee which was probably very small, was deemed acceptable and he was allowed to go
We’ve scored loads of goals this season so don’t need strikers .Lack of signing a striker on a permanent deal for 2.5 years is extremely poor

Agree with you.. That back 4 gets us through. Would've dealt with Lutons 2 corner goals
Well done to our players and Tony Mowbray for working miracles with the players at his disposal.
Lot of nonsense posted about tactics or players bottling it.
The cold facts are we were unable to counter their high press because we had no option to play long.
The reason for this is the abject failure to sign a decent physical striker in January.
Those responsible have let down the players who have performed amazing the manager and the supporters.
You need the tools to do the job.
The Incredibly limited, but what they do they do very well.Some people just don't seem able to accept that Luton are a good championship side.
I take the point about balancing the squad, but given the money involved and Mowbray talking up the importance of experience in the squad, it just seems silly we let him leave.
He wasnt behind Anderson at all, Wright would have actually been selected. Nor Cirkin for centre back role in a two. Nor would he have been behind Onien had Batth been injured- he'd be a direct replacement. In fact Mowbray has even said there was thought of Anderson going straight out on loan, but they wanted to get him used to the squad before he probably goes out next season.
Really, then letting a centre half go in January like last season when you're extremely reliant on kids, just as running it fine with strikers first half of the season, we didn't learn from. I could maybe have accepted it had Ballard not been injury prone so far in his career or if Wright was leaving permanently to play regularly and we were beginning to move on those we maybe didn't think we're up to progressing, but he's got another year - so how exactly did it benefit us?
It's an error for me, albeit a small one.
