JBFC II Posted December 29, 2019 Report Share Posted December 29, 2019 Yep they weren’t great. Makes the fact we won so comfortably even better, considering how we’ve struggled against poor sides at home so regularly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A carry over from their promotion form . Confidence is so important in this division but now they are beginning to feel the pressure of the Championship .

Ska Junkie Posted December 29, 2019 Report Share Posted December 29, 2019 Any side struggles on coming up to this league, we did. They were poor to be fair but the step up must be fairly large now. I think it says more about L1 than it does the Championship as not many seem to survive up here. Their Chairman has been moaning about financial disadvantage on promotion and asking for a wage cap. Never going to happen. Welcome to the Championship Hatters, it gets even worse with the Parachute payment clubs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2015 Posted December 29, 2019 Report Share Posted December 29, 2019 Have seen them away from home earlier on this season and I have to say they were shocking on that occasion as well. Just don't look up to scratch with the rest of the division. Though, they are a completely different team at Home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mozo Posted December 29, 2019 Report Share Posted December 29, 2019 To be fair, we sat back and gave them a few spells of dominance, but they were definitely the warmest opponent faced at Ashton Gate. Huddersfield put in a good 2nd half against us at least. Shame we only got 3 points out of Luton this season and 1 point out of Charlton! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lanterne Rouge Posted December 29, 2019 Report Share Posted December 29, 2019 Normally when you play someone as awful as Luton were today you can usually pick out one or two of theirs who looked half decent - not today, they were all terrible.

HoldenBall Posted December 29, 2019 Report Share Posted December 29, 2019 One of the worst championship sides I think I've ever seen down at Ashton Gate, along with Rotherham a few years back.

Their no 17 looked decent in the first half, but much more quiet in the second half. Harry Connick (14) was a bit of a handful up front, but never looked like scoring. If he added Jr to his name, perhaps he might go for a song! (I’ll get my coat....) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No but the replacement RB was “old school”. It only took 30 seconds of the 2nd half before he hacked Eliasson to the ground and left his calling card. Fortunately Niclas was too good for him as well.

Alex_BCFC Posted December 29, 2019 Report Share Posted December 29, 2019 They were shocking. Offered almost nothing going forward and looked poor at the back. Reminded me of us v Charlton in the first half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lrrr Posted December 29, 2019 Report Share Posted December 29, 2019 We just let their defence have the ball (if we couldn't pressure them) seemingly knowing we'd get the ball back through an error Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
