In all honesty much of the game was awful - the wind destroyed any chance of decent football.
Before we scored I felt we were struggling a bit. Thankfully Marshall made an excellent save at 0-0. After that we improved & scored 2 cracking goals. It should have been 3 when Reid missed a glorious chance!
Marschall was pretty much faultless today in difficult conditions. Goode was solid as always & I thought Sweeney did well which was a relief. Wildin & Freestone also had very good games with Luther winning some great tackles.
I also think Houghton is a much better player than he’s given credit for. He quietly goes about his business & is really effective at getting a foot in, linking up play & organising. People are raving about White but I felt a lot of the game passed him by.
Reid worked his socks off and, apart from the big miss, he battled well. The 2 wingers were also heavily involved - I really like Campbell & Lubala is settling in nicely. Kemp was a bit muscled out of the game but he is always a danger.
Our bench is so strong now - I honestly think we’ve got a chance in every game which is a lovely refreshing feeling!
All in all a fabulous result & it’s great to see Luton fans so quiet!

Great summary Lily.
While the football wasn't great, we had a *really* strong first half in awful conditions. Our strong players dealt with the wind much better than the Luton players, and that made a massive difference.
They did have a good spell at the start of the second half, and (excellent) Marschall's save was a key moment.
You're right to mention Chem. He played really well, and scored another super goal. What a squad we have!

Worst team I’ve seen this season.
Their fans were berating their players at full time

A lot of calls for the manager to be sacked on X. Be a nice tradition to bring back where each team sacks their manager after losing to Stevenage.

Don't matter who you are, you're not stopping strikes like ours today. Roberts goal was magical

Harvey White was flawless today. A key ball into Kemp for the first goal too.

Brilliant, was unsurprisingly slightly quieter after the booking but my MoTM.

Harvey has been terrific all season. His development curve is very, very encouraging. Hit another lovely strike too! And he is *loving* interacting with the East haha
No coincidence he's improving playing alongside Houghton

It was a game made for Lewis Freestone today, and didn't he step up. Brilliant performance. (Kemp also; couldn't split them for MoM)
