Flags, flags and more flags, it’s flag day

Luton manager Nathan Jones has been a bit of a problem for the swans over recent fixtures, he seems to save his best for this fixture. The swans won at the Liberty but it wasn’t pretty, in fact it wasn’t even ugly, it was worse than that. Coupled with the swans recent form, albeit seven points from nine, it’s still a worry if an out of form Swansea can get anything from this game. A change of form is needed. Quickly.


Nathan Jones has never made it easy for the swans - ever

Last time out
Luton lost at Norwich City 3-0, Swansea City drew at Blackburn Rovers.

Previously
Since 2004 the swans have won five out of the last fixtures in all competitions. Last season Swansea won 1-0 at Kenilworth Road, and Luton won 1-0 at the Liberty.

Swansea City v Luton Town
Games won: 20
Games drawn: 11
Games lost: 22

Luton Facts
The club was founded in 1885 and became the first professional team in southern England in 1891. Back then it was over a hundred years ago. The side was promoted to the top-flight in 1981—82 and won the 1987—88 League Cup Final with a 3—2 victory over Arsenal. The club stayed in the top division until 1992. Then they left. They have never played in the premier league.

Charles Arthur Salvador (formerly Charles Ali Ahmed; Bronson, born Michael Gordon Peterson
The man known as Charlie Bronson, Britain’s longest serving inmate ( 47 years currently )is from Luton, he is quite old now, 69 next birthday, but would still give a few millennials a right good kicking as long as there wasn’t more than five of them at a time. Bronson wrote the foreword to Tommy Robinson’s book about his hooligan endeavours. A bit like Cardiff City it should have been a three page pamphlet, the front and back Included. The middle page for a picture of Walter Mitty.


Charles Bronson amongst other names is as hard as a hard thing from hardshire

Luton’s Star Man
A Manchester United academy graduate, the 26-year-old brings a huge amount of Championship experience to Kenilworth Road, having spent a majority of his career in the second tier. After he made two appearances in the League Cup, Tunnicliffe left Old Trafford in 2014, having spent time on loan at Peterborough United, Barnsley and Ipswich Town, joining Fulham for an undisclosed fee in 2014. He spent three-and-a-half years there, again, heading out on loan, this time to Blackburn Rovers and Wigan Athletic. He joined Millwall in 2017, spending two-years there, before joining the Hatters in the summer. Tunnicliffe made 40 appearances during his first season at Kenilworth Road, scoring his one and only goal in the 1-0 away victory against Middlesborough. At nine years old, Ryan was playing for Manchester United’s youth teams, and his dad managed to get odds on 100-1 on his son featuring for the first team, which earned him £10,000 in 2012.

Running to the cliff, that’s Ryan

Absolutely pissed off with us creating problems for ourselves time and time again, got a good start in the game and we are flaffing about at the back, Woodmans clearances are shocking, plus the offside goal they had he was on his heals no attempt to jump and challenge in the air for the ball, we can't string two passes together on times, Luton are quicker and sharper.

But we're winning

On a positive note, Korey Smith is pure class.

Master stroke of a signing.


No positive notes in the match day thread. Keith sort this guy out please.

Why pass back to Woody from a freekick ? We invite presure.Crazy


Agreed - these back passes do my head in. We just passed back from a corner down their end, creating all sorts of trouble down our end. Very sporting of us to give them these opportunities.

Our negativity and idiotic back passes are causing real problems. This isn't just about Woodman. It is almost at the stage of getting a sub on to try to steady the back line.

I'm not exaggerating when I say that Luton genuinely look like one of the best teams we've played this season. They do knock it around quite nicely and try to play football, which is more than be said of most teams in this division- and us of late.

Our players are slipping and sliding all over in their half. Need to put some studs on at half time.

The defensive pressure we have been under all seems to stem from Woodman.
He is making me very nervous

Honest.

Few of the positive posse giving us negative buggers any stick.

That is because they know the truth.

This is again awful fare from us.

We have to be careful with Naughton on a yellow and a walking red card.
