We've got to face facts. It would be quite a surprise if we won, Luton are surely favourites to win this. Premier League 2nd season syndrome strikes again

The rescheduled Bournemouth game (after Lockyer collapsed in the original one) is on Wednesday.With them already able to draw level with the game in hand and point deduction looming, this is the first real must win game of the season for me. You can be sure they will be on the attack so we need to start with CHO and Elanga to exploit the space.
If Nuno sets us up for this one with another 'must not lose' mentality, we deserve to be relegated.

Absolutely, Notch.Boly to come in for me. He's a leader and wins the ariel battles in the box. He's also a leader, it might have gone unnoticed but he went out pretending to warm up yesterday and stood himself down the touchline organising our defence.

Hopefully a couple of things in our favour then.The rescheduled Bournemouth game (after Lockyer collapsed in the original one) is on Wednesday.

A win for Luton would put them onto 24 points and increase their GD by at least 1, which would make it at least level with ours. They've already scored more than us, and a win will mean that figure increases even more.
So that will mean without a points deduction we will start this match in the bottom 3.
If Luton lose vs Bournemouth then it's also likely we will be below them as we get the points deduction the day before (assuming this is the outcome).
These are wank , we will win.
As much as we have been toothless in some games and not been at it for 90 minutes when it comes down to it I fully expect us to be beat this lot.
If we go here and win we then have a break to clear our heads ready for back to back wins against Palace at home then it starts looking a little better.
Against Brighton we shouldn't have lost, we certainly didn't deserve to lose against Liverpool the week before. Sooner or later the tide will turn and things will go our way, thats what I have to keep telling myself anyway.....
Only Luton having a game in hand is potentially keeping us out at the moment though. Even if Luton lose or draw (which admittedly is more likely than them winning) what will happen in the next week will probably then define if we start this match in the relegation zone or not.Good to see nobody has thrown the towel in yet despite us not being in the relegation zone once this season

It will be interesting to review those odds in 7 days time-when Luton have played their gameThe odds on our relegation have actually lengthened over the weekend. SkyBet had us at 15/8 on Friday, and it's now 2/1.
