To be fair I was looking for a few nibbles, I’ve suffered enough abuse on here for having the opinion NP had to go and had to long if anything that I feel I can enjoy the little purple patch currently! We were 15th you ******* clown not top

Mate they can’t let go of Nige. Wouldn’t even bother interacting. He’s held up as a god by some fans quite embarrassing

I’m still not sold on max personally mate. Had a couple of blinders recently tho

That’s why we haven’t won 2 in a row since Feb

It’s fine mate, go and see your shrine to Nige and calm down. Try and watch the next game with your eyes open and you’ll see the differences

Brilliant 20 mins, come on and gave us exactly what we needed. Bit of bite and relentless pressure of their back 4. A really good performance and good to see him back.

A team that can win back to back games is a good start.

Superb subs, another top 6 side beaten. Back to back wins for the first time since Feb. Slowly but surely the man is building HIS team. Whether you want him in or don’t, believe what he’s building, get behind it. Christmas has just got that little bit sweeter.

It’s a one year course in fairness but granted it’s not many days “on site” as such. It’s a much more practical based degree and when you amount the time it takes to amass the qualifications to actually be able to access the course. It’s still around a 4/5 year degree just done in a very different way.

It’s 100% equivalent of an undergraduate degree. Many more places are offering these more specific courses and are much widely recognised in comparison to your “normal” degrees than they ever have been.

Because we played such liquid football under NP and his results were so good. Muppet

Mental how you’ve gone back to MK Dons as your benchmark and not what come after. I think Saints and Martin are an absolute prime example of giving someone an opportunity to make their mark. So many positives tonight, we just got beat by a better side.

Unreal half of football. Crazy decisions. Spurs should be down to 9. Why they’ve continued the unrelenting press is beyond me. Could see Chelsea running riot if they are not careful

Could say likewise regarding fans wanting NP to stay after very little progress on the pitch. Just like what I’ve seen and read regarding Manning over the last week. Only time will tell mate but hope he’s a hit, the same as I supported while NP was in charge.

At times they knocked it about very nicely and we’re able to mix it up too. Maybe outrageously good was a slight exaggeration but compared to our football at least it was exciting to watch.

At times last year Luton were excellent on sky.

Again your opinion Fevs, I’m not saying you’re wrong. Also think slightly unfair on LJ nobody knows whether all those signings were his or MA. I wasn’t comparing the spending between LJ and NP as very different situations but obviously something except FFP stopped the owners giving Nige ££. We can all speculate as to what that is. It’s a shame this site isn’t a place for debate anymore if you’re not on the right side. Il stick to my guns and see where we are come the end of the next gaffers tenure.

So because my opinion doesn’t suit yours I shouldn’t support City. What a strange thing to say, can’t we all long to watch better football. Especially at home

Luton played outrageously good football last year and got promoted with parachute payments. They were on the front foot, doesn’t mean they were not pragmatic. You can be solid at the back and still be on the front foot and play attractive football. It’s not one or the other.

I was stating that he has been given money. The statement was he has had no money. I didn’t mention anything regarding the amount he sold, what he brought in etc. Not sure where I insinuated I was worried?

That’s your decision mate and I respect that, JL has left that door open for people to use. For me, I’d just like to see attacking football where we dominate the ball and win more than 37% of the time.

Agree on 5 maybe I was adding the ones from January too. Difference with LJ is he was pushing play offs, alongside that I personally don’t feel some of those signings were made by him. More by MA. LJ also sold a great deal of players for decent £ I get the injuries side of it but had we made 3 loan singings or signed a couple more players we wouldn’t be in that mess. I get both sides of the argument mate but I just feel like NP was here to do a job and he did that. I am excited regarding Manning and hope he can prove it

Not really a level playing field to expect promotion when he’s already playing catch up. I don’t agree with the Lansdowns that this is a promotion squad but it’s sure as hell better than 15th. Give the bloke a chance, I’d be happy to see us play some attacking football and try and play on the front foot. Because JL got that one absolutely spot on. The football wasn’t great under NP however you spin it.

NP has had money though hasn’t he? I don’t understand where this theory comes from. He’s not had a great deal granted but spent circa £7m this summer and we were 15th at time of departure. I wasn’t a fan of NP, I’ve made that very clear. I appreciate the job he had done off the pitch but for me there is barely any improvement on it. You can spin any point to either side of the coin you’re on, I don’t think JL/SL have seen enough from NP to warrant chucking money. The sacking was harsh in my opinion but NP shouldn’t be heralded for anything he produced on the pitch. Just my opinion mate, pitchforks have been out with every post I’ve put because nobody wants to discuss the possibility that maybe NP was failing on the pitch.

Don’t think it’s fair to have that as your barometer when the previous managers team was so inconsistent and he couldn’t get enough out of the players. Manning has an almost impossible task to get top 6. But if he can get us firing and embed his style, alongside showing some attacking football and maybe even not having 40% possession at home would be a good start. This obsession with Pearson is actually laughable. The football was bang average, we won 38% of our games under him and he’s had time and money. Time for someone new to freshen it up. Wipe your tears away and get behind the new gaffer. Start of a great couple of years this.
