the team galvanised well in the 2nd half a goal and a man down, the belief seem to click in and sort of bossed it with 10 men for quite alot of the 2nd half
They did well 2nd half. Sometimes players can play a bit more freely after a sending off, maybe the pressure is off somewhat. Though I thought it was madness that Luton sat off us. Mad as a hatter their coach must be.

Well, with 10 men that 2nd half was full of surprises. We took it to the opposition, Colback and Yates dominated the midfield, Jenkinson actually looked like a footballer and we could have nicked it.
I will take that. A mini unbeaten run building under Hughton.

Resilient performance. He’s beginning to turn it around.
RE: Luton Town - Nottingham Forest - ThePromisedLand - 29-10-2020
Game of two halves & contrasting performances - yet again.
RE: Luton Town - Nottingham Forest - Superreddamo - 29-10-2020
Can’t believe people are complaining. Some great crosses 1st half, bad goal to concede, really worked hard all game, AK and Taylor left nowt on the pitch and so good to see us show so much guts and desire... massive improvement for me. Forget Luton’s stature, they would have been top 6 if they won and they have had a great start...
RE: Luton Town - Nottingham Forest - Sabricadabra - 29-10-2020
Definitely forget Luton’s stature.
What’s Nottingham Forest’s stature? For 20 years we’ve been a lower mid-table Championship club, on average. If someone had to determine which club most epitomised the mid-table of the Championship they would conclude the answer to be Nottingham Forest. We are the club who’s spent the most time in this league during that time iirc.
So today’s fixture was a battle between the archetypal mid-table second tier club vs a second tier yo-yo club. Hardly a mismatch.

Me too, Yates & Arter is my preferred midfield pairing.
Colback is a decent player but never one I was overly keen on.

Look better in 2nd half then first which given we were down to 10 was a suprise...be nice to take the lead for once but will be helping with confidence and team ethic which has looked shot previously.

Stature is maybe the wrong word and disrespectful to Luton. The issue is what this squad should be achieving given that I suspect our wages bill is 3-4 times theirs.

I see Yates is no longer the scapegoat. I see there is a new one now. Ioannou.

Pleased for Yates. He really is the new Watson , zero to hero.
Ioannou cant be scapegoat for the next 3 games......
RE: Luton Town - Nottingham Forest - Sabricadabra - 29-10-2020
I thought Grabban was the scapegoat?
Without Ioannou there will be Figs or Colback to take the baton.
