They had a load of possession in the second half, passed it around very slickly, but barely got in Luton's penalty area. No threat at all.

Luton weren't pretty but are physically strong. Always a threat at corners and set pieces.


Sunderland just weren’t strong enough tonight. Luton have the smallest pitch allowed, the lack of space to stretch Luton really showed.

I thought Luton won it with the aerial threat they posed. Huge big lads capable of causing serious problems. If the Boro get through tonight I can see Luton scoring a couple of goals from corners/set pieces.

I was at Wembley for Boro’s play-off defeat against Norwich about 8 yrs back. Norwich won because they were just so much bigger, stronger and faster.

Clear message sent by the FA though. Also, the best possible timing for Brentford in that some of that suspension is during the off season and so it's the least number of games he can miss.

awful from the Fa for me.. how long ago was he found guilty? (looked it up he pleaded guilty in march) so he should have been instantly banned.. how many relegation teams has he scored against in that time? or teams that miss out on europe or something.. when really he shouldnt be playing

if someone he scored against since march goes down on the back of his goals being the difference is that fair?

I presume you would have been happy for West Ham to have taken Sheffield UTDs place in the championship all those years ago then?
