link to draw

Home draw would be great against either top half prem or the lowest ranked team left

Wilson Assist for the first (according to BBC) and scored the second. 

But apart from that

Nope. Love a Cup run. It was a treat for me to see us beat Coventry at Burton, and selfishly I think it's quite fun that these games aren't available on 4 different streams and 7 TV channels. I'm looking forward to an audio-only follow mixed with updates from the few who are there. If this leads to a tasty 3rd round draw, or an extended run, then all the better.

I think it's also always exciting to see a different batch of players to the ones we see in the league every week.

Love the Cups.

Remember when you had to keep your cup tickets in case we got a big draw in the next round and you had to prove you went to get priority!  Simple times but happy times

Keep sky sports news on and they'll eventually show the goals when we score

I like the positivity!

The debate right now isn't price. It's that they're not restocking the stuff that's actually selling.

If only read the first few posts when I replied, havnt got to the restock issue yet

Market forces will dictate the prices at the end of the day.  If it’s too expensive and people don’t buy it then the price will come down.  If people still buy it regardless and just moan then it won’t!

How do United spend millions on players then?

I don’t think the issue fans have is played spend

If we were to beat Cardiff tomorrow by 2 goals... we'd go from 20th to 7th.

Such a tight league.

As an attacking unit (all options included) we have to be up there with the best in the league. 

The options we have available to us. You would back all of them to get 10 goals a season minimum.

Conway, Weimann, Wells, Semenyo, Martin. 

Other teams would dream of having those options available to them. 

Special mention to the midfield and defence as well today. That's two clean sheets in back-to-back games. I can't remember when we last achieved that.

Last B2B wins with clean sheet Nov 2020!

Are they talking clean sheets in a row or wins with clean sheets?

I think Sky are referring to last back to back clean sheets, I was focusing on B2B wins with clean sheets

Are they talking clean sheets in a row or wins with clean sheets?

Just posted on match thread but I think this is the first back to back wins with a clean sheet since Nov 2020 when we beat Cardiff away and Derby home 1-0.  I don’t think we had back to back wins last season at all did we?

When was the last time we won 2 games in a row with 2 clean sheets?

Nov 2020 was the last time we won 2 in a row without conceding I think!

Easily the best back to back games under Pearson.

More of the same please

When was the last time we won 2 games in a row with 2 clean sheets?

Quite right too, put in an excellent shift, been unselfish all game, and the chance he gets to put his name on sheet, is an awful ball. Then he gets subbed with 90 seconds to go, rather than giving him the full 90 he deserved. 

Better that than coming on in 90 minutes which isn’t far from what’s happened for last couple of years for NK

No not a new ITV crime drama, but does anyone know what was going on in the first half with Naismith and Bentley on the goal kicks?  Seemed to get a bit heated at times?  Has this happened at other games?

I'm with Nige generally, but was tonight's ref really that bad? I didn't think so. If one of your players decides to risk a red card by making a mad challenge, you can't stand there and say yeah but their bloke retaliated. I agree in general, but the wrong game to bring this up, for me. I didn't think tonight's ref was poor. All about opinions, I guess.

Up until the penalty claim I hadn’t noticed the ref really which is a good thing, but he had a mental 5 minutes where every decision went to Luton and we didn’t get much after that really.  I thought at the time Sykes challenge was risky so no complaints, but the pushing afterwards should have been a red also.

I thought the gate looked poor tonite.but I was impressed at the support. Loud and proud 

Yeh I’ve not seen the Dolman that empty for a while

For me you simply can’t drop the front 2 after they both not only scored, but looked dangerous and can only build their relationship through game time, plus dropping him after scoring would tell him it doesn’t matter in the future if he plays well as he will get dropped which is hardly good man management.  Martin coming on to see the game out works better from a game management perspective.

What happened to the Prem JB that’s why you don’t say stuff like that after a couple of wins early season cause you look stupid, keep it level
