Championship - 22-23

[Mattyblue]

Depends what ‘logic’ you are using, certainly not by actual interest.

All conquering Chelsea get around 2/3,000 at home games… there’s even clubs in National League N/S (sixth tier) that get bigger gates than that.

Rangers will be livid that they’re considered less important than Celtic…

They are both equally unimportant.

Didn’t see anything wrong with that disallowed goal then

[danger19_80]

Lockyer just stumbled over with no one else around him. Quite concerning.

Scary shit but seems to be ok thankfully. He's been immense for them this season, would love to have him here. Happy to see him moving and conscious.

He was offside - VAR (which is here today) would have ruled it out. Obviously in the regular season it's a coin flip whether the linesman sees that.

Two absolute nothing teams, but of the two at least Luton haven't cheated this year.

Coventry should have had a points deduction at the start of the season for a failure to fulfil fixtures and of course their gobshite GK handled the ball to score a goal that kept us out of the playoffs. 

[simongarnerisgod]

coventry still in the dressing room,they`ve been terrible,1-0 luton

[Tugayisgod]

Luton bullying Cov all over the pitch

[Mattyblue]

Don’t they know 2 up front is ‘dinosaur tactics’?

[Polky]

Gallagher would have had a hat trick in this play-off final 😂

[Exiled_Rover]

Crap game of football between two poor teams so far.

[AllRoverAsia]

Luton ahead but having no luck, that in itself is a worry.

The Cheats started to play a bit after 30 mins and are fast on the break.

Luton may yet regret, I hope not, the good chances they have missed in addition to the 2 disallowed.

I so want Coventry to lose.

I hope Lockyer is ok.

Coventry....meh! 

[matt83]

Luton with one foot in the premier league. They were probably dabbling with the conference south when the Venkys darkened our door as a stable midtable premier league. Cheers again Venkys. 

[arbitro]

Luton are calling the shots in the first half. They get the ball forward early and at every opportunity and put the ball into the penalty area for Morris and Adebayo to get something on it. Pretty simple but effective with hardly any risk taking just to retain possession.

Robins has his work cut out and the encouragement for him must be that they aren't more than one down.

 

 

[sympatheticclaret]

Coventry must have had a touch of the " hairdryer " at half time, I fancy ...

[simongarnerisgod]

gyorkes and hamer destined for a future that is far more rewarding than coventry

Cheats equalizer 1-1

Wiki says they were in the Conference Premier (their first time ever at that level) from 2009/10, and got in the playoffs 3 out of 4 seasons whilst down there, finishing 7th in the other season, so they weren't dabbling with the Conference South. Still an embarassing difference between the two clubs' fates from that starting point under billionaire Venkys to where we both find ourselves today.

Out of curiosity, if Luton go up will their stadium (10,356 capacity) be the smallest in the history of the Premier League? Not counting capacities limited due to building work and strictly talking Premiership not top flight.

[bluebruce]

In fact, to answer my own question, yes, it would be just over 1,000 less capacity than Bournemouth's was when they went up.

They're both going to need some serious investment if they are doing anything other getting rinsed every week in the prem.
