    massive turnaround by Luton second half.

    Clinton Morriston says the Bournemouth subs there the issue. I have no idea but this has now really put everyone above on edge.

    forest right back in it with a massive game tomorrow.

    Burnley down now. They've been very underwhelming this season given all the hype they were getting from last season.

    Shame Burnley couldn't beat Everton, would've made it more interesting down there. Luton giving it a good go though.

    There been talk of illness in our camp for a week or so influencing the team selections and subs. More often, our bench and Iraola’s tactical tweaks and use of subs has turned games in our favour. Yesterday it went the opposite way and we got worse for every change.

    Not going to moan or get down about one getting away from us. Luton had every possible motivation to push and give it everything and stranger things will happen this time of the season.

    Big win for us today. Not quite safe but… one more win I think would do it.

    Looking at the remaining fixtures I'd fancy Luton and Everton to pick up more points than Forest. They've already played 33 games as well so they're running out of chances.

    Our run-in isn't great and we can't buy a win either but hopefully the points we've already amasssed and the games in hand we have will see us through.

    Yeah I agree sadly. We needed to win yesterday.
    Our only realistic routes to survival involve winning away games, or Luton losing home games. Both feel unlikely at the moment.

    Thankfully we should be able to say goodbye to this thread now. Roll on season 4.

    congrats.

    it's really getting down to how many or few points Luton get.

    They do seem to blow it in winnable looking games

    yeah, they have given it a great go but they just can't defend well enough

    I strongly suspect 30 is now enough and it could be much less.

    Fancied Luton to get out of it with their run-in but losing 1-5 at home to Brentford doesn't suggest they're going to get as many points as first thought.

    Forest may only need to win one more the way Luton are going. Even Burnley look more convincing than them at the moment.
