Kissing automatic promotion goodbye

Where did I say that? Luke Berry has just returned after breaking his leg last season, Glen Rea (captain) is out for the rest of the season. The other 3 I mentioned are out currently either injuried or suspended

Well you didn't really answer my question. Did you replace the lad that broke his leg and is the player that came in better than him? You haven't had many suspensions have you?

Didn’t really replace no, all positions have 2 players in reserve. In December we had 5 of L2 team of the year sitting on the bench. We’ve had our fair share of suspensions DH now missing 7 games in total and a couple of other players. But you drop out the team either by injury or suspension it’s hard to get your place back.
 
I think if we can get Leadbitter and a striker in we will go up automatically, Leadbitter is exactly what we need, a driving force in the middle of the park and an experienced local lad who knows what it means and will remind his teammates exactly what it means.
 
Would another season in league 1 be a compete catastrophe? If we lost in the play off final or example, hopefully win the checkertrade.
Ross has done a very good job in the circumstances and he’s only had one summer transfer window. His squad next season and if the worst happens and we don’t go up I think we’d be in a position to win the league quite comfortably next season, and maybe defend the CT too
How do you work that out marra?

2 players in reserve for every position? So you have 3 right backs, 3 left backs etc.? Must have a canny wage bill for this league.

He's not going to be a driving force though is he, the lad is at the end of his career. He's not going to add much movement or pace to the team. He's exactly what we don't need imo, unless he's a replacement for Cattermole and we bring in another attacking midfielder.

They're just that good. They're not called lutonlona for nowt
 
No doubt about it. Portsmouth are streets ahead and Luton haven’t lost in donkey years.

We’ve lost our best player and are drawing far too many. Unfortunately I can see us getting knocked out in the play-off semis.

JR is suspect imo, should be bossing this league.

Never heard of utility players James Justin as an example can play both sides, we have forwards that can play tip of the diamond or the number 9 position. Why would I make it up, league table surely backs me up. We even have a chief scout who can double as a manager!

I don't get how people view Luton as much better than us yet they couldn't beat us home or away? We are as good as anyone in the league and much better than most, if this is our dodgy period we still aren't losing games and the impetus of a few new faces will see us kick on, nowt to panic about yet ffs!
Your goal keeper was MoM unbelievable display, shit like that happens he saved you massively

You're just like gaggogoogogears, arrogant as fuck.
 
Out of interest, why did you think we would finish 19th or 20th?

I looked at how we have done in seasons past over the last 10 years and what change did for us in that time. How well new faces did for us then. I was not hopeful.

Everyone kept on saying "automatic promotion nailed on" and stuff like that. If you then asked me to predict an absolute best case scenario for us, and not where we will actually finish, I stop at the play-offs. Not once did I think we were good enough for automatic promotion.
