Luton V TLOD

[ScillyRover]

We haven’t got a central forward on the pitch that can control a ball.

[steve@dcfd]

We have made mistakes with both strikers in the transfer window and this will cause a problem until the next transfer window

[Padge_DRFC]

To think we binned Ironside off for these 2

[ForsolongaRover]

Time to try our own youth players because this lot up front are shit

It’s difficult to believe that young loanees are ready for men’s football, but never any of our own it seems.

Hanlan and olasagne is just rakish Bingham and kwame thomas mk2. 

Everyone could see we needed a striker in the summer

[PDX_Rover]

The Luton manager is a very angry little man.

[ScillyRover]

Can’t recall a shot on target all game.

Bails hit the bar.

It was a decent effort to be fair.

According to the bbc we did manage one. Hooray

[PDX_Rover]

Well… some work for Grant to do to get us back on track. Still in a decent position but some action needed. Don’t see anything remotely League One quality in Hanlan and Olusanya.

That stat is crackers.
If a shot is blocked on the line by a defender it doesn’t count as a shot on target.

That’s the trouble with stats; they never tell the full story.

Molyneux cut inside and had one saved down by the post midway thro the second half

[steve@dcfd]

According to stats we had 1 shot on target from 10 shots. From a misfiring Molyneux to two astonishing poor summer striker signings we will struggle to score. I not sure what Grant can do when the tools selected are not good enough to keep us with the promotion group of teams

[glosterred]

Full time 1-0 not the result we were wishing for, but looking at PVO it’s what the majority were predicting. 9th in the league currently on to Burton next Saturday.

Onwards and upwards

That was really poor, offered very little threat going forward, midfield virtually non existent, passing awful. Just very flat with no urgency or movement.

Last 20 minutes we should have thrown the kitchen sink at what I thought were a very average side, it was all a bit huff & puff, & a very easy 1-0 for Luton. Back to the drawing board.

You do realise that blocked shots, which would otherwise be on target, and hitting the woodwork, are not listed as on target.?

We’ve just played a side who were in the premier league when we were 3rd bottom in the 4th division.

Just need a confidence jab IMHO. Hopefully next Saturday.

it does if the keeper is beaten

Ok, let’s say instead then that a shot blocked by a defender two yards out, with the keeper behind or at the side of the said defender, doesn’t count as a shot on target.
