It could be that it's the players who aren't good at set-pieces

Yellow for Toffs In 83rd minute instead of just a free kick I thought was harsh considering other decisions

Excellent header from Yates on Morris Whiner

Why the hell was nobody on Chong, pushing him away from Sels for instance, let alone Berry. Atrocious defending

Out of interest, who are all the injured Luton players?

Does Sangare have another game directly after ours because he looks like he is conserving energy all game?!?!?

Think Neco was our best player (not for the first time)

Since we like to hit the first player in the box from a corner, why don't we make that a Forest player?

Origi ahead of CHO was strange. 1 goal 1 assist from Origi Vs 4 goals 2 assists from CHO.
Surely you play the percentages?
I wish Nuno would start looking back on our earlier games, and doing some research on them. He could have caught the Niakate LB fiasco before it happened had he done, and he could have caught today's late flop too.

| Thomas Lockyer | Chest/Abdominal Injury | Feb 18: 'We will be dictated to by the medical staff and specialists, but if there was a chance I could play again, then I would love to. It's far too early to say; there are a lot more tests and things that need to happen, but I wouldn't write it off.' | 08/07/2024 | Currently Being Assessed | Ruled Out | TRACK |
| Amari'i Bell | Thigh Injury | Mar 12: 'Amari’i had his operation today, hamstring, so that’s probably going to be him [done for the season].' | 03/06/2024 | Currently Being Assessed | Ruled Out | TRACK |
| Marvelous Nakamba | Knee Injury | Feb 26: 'He's still in the very early stages of [his recovery], so whether we get him back before the end of the season, it's still very touch and go. He's working hard, but it's all very, very early stages, biking and things like that.' | 19/05/2024 | Currently Being Assessed | Ruled Out | TRACK |
| Elijah Adebayo | Thigh Injury | Mar 15: 'Potentially, his hamstring is worse. We were in a position where he was feeling good, and we were pushing; he was pushing as well, and he felt it again, so we've got to be really careful now. He's not going to be back after the break.' | 04/05/2024 | Not Available | Ruled Out | TRACK |
| Dan Potts | Thigh Injury | Mar 01: 'I couldn't talk about it the other day, but he had a nasty hamstring injury in training last week. You watch it back, and it almost looks like nothing, but he'll be out for a while now, unfortunately.' | 27/04/2024 | Currently Being Assessed | Ruled Out | TRACK |
| Joseph Johnson | Illness | Mar 08: 'Joe, he's not had a lot of playing time. He's got glandular fever. We need to look after him. For him, it's to rest up and get better.' | 03/04/2024 | Currently Being Assessed | Ruled Out | TRACK |

| Gabriel Osho | Knee Injury | Mar 15: 'He's still in pain today, so not going to be good for tomorrow. There are about five centre-backs out, and there are not many teams in the PL who would be able to cope with that, so it is difficult for us.' | 30/03/2024 | Not Available | Ruled Out | TRACK |
| Mads Andersen | Calf/Shin/Heel Injury | Mar 08: 'He's progressing really well, that will be a massive plus. He's due to come back in [at] the end of next week. Hopefully, we can start pushing and getting him closer.' | 30/03/2024 | Currently Being Assessed | Ruled Out | TRACK |

Yes, but apart from those few Luton don't have any injuries.
What annoys me the most about our set-pieces, is why hasn’t MGW realised / seen that it isn’t working, I mean does he come off the pitch every game thinking “yeah, there were a few good ones in there, just unlucky”, I mean how many times can you keep hitting the first man, or getting it wrong, and not realise that you’re getting it wrong???? It just doesn’t make sense

Its only 11 players, hardly scratching the surface Alf.
Google again, there must be more!
It appears it's around 13754 times.
Its only 13752, stop exaggerating

2 of who started today. And another 3 or 4 who hardly contribute. So a few missing.... a bit like us and most other clubs at this time of year.

Ive been saying this since before we even got promoted pre MGW.
We just dont score from any set piece, there must be a stat somewhere that says were bottom of set play goals in the last 3 seasons, in any division......in the world.
It still makes me laugh how a corner gets people up on their feet at games, I just look at how many men we have back these days, honestly.
You literally may as well just let the opposition take them on our behalf.

Yeah, not only do we have as many injures, but Montiel and Tavares are world beaters too, constantly winning us games.
Do me a favour
We had far less issues to deal with injury wise, and it's not even close.

Andover, I’m all for you trying to add some positive spin (forum needs every angle to keep it interesting) but this isn’t the hill to die on!
If you go on any of the injury tracking websites, Luton are top of the injury table and even with my minimal knowledge on them I recognise 6/7 names that have been starting for them.
Rubics
Bin VAR!
The issue for us was T being out and then wood going off injured. One of those has to be fit for palace.
Mr. Blonde
Jack Burkitt
Two weeks between now and the Palace game though, not beyond the realms of possibility one of them gets fit in that time
