Luton – A Game Of Two Different Halves

If ever there was a game of two halves then yesterday, against Sheffield Wednesday was it.

It was a game that really did put the supporters through the emotional wringer.

With Nathan Jones selecting almost the same side that had excited the Hatters support against Millwall in midweek, it was expected that Luton could brush aside a struggling Sheffield Wednesday side who have struggled to get results away from home.

But the first forty-five minutes were, for Luton supporters, painful to watch. The side never looked to be at the races and went into the half-time break losing 2-0, courtesy of 2 goals from Josh Windass.

Naturally, the performance did not go down well with the Hatters support and flicking through the social media comments, there was an air of resignation, as the following show:

But the second half was completely different, quite what Nathan Jones said to his side during the break I would love to know, but Luton came out and produced a thrilling comeback that saw the side not only claw back the deficit but go on to score a late winner, delighting those watching from their homes.

Such was the turnaround in fortunes, the mood on social media swung completely the other way, with the support rapturous at how their heroes had come back from what looked to be a certain defeat:

And I will gladly admit neither did I, with such a woeful first half performance I was anticipating the Hatters being on the end of a home thrashing.

But returning to the old question:

We would certainly like to know, did he walk into the dressing room and unleash a torrent of abuse, or did he address them calmly or perhaps he adopted the tactics of the late Graham Taylor who, when in charge of Aston Villa in a cup game against Crewe, saw his side end the fist half losing 2-0, simply waked into the dressing room and said:

“You gentlemen got us into this mess and you gentleman can get us out of it.”

Before exiting the dressing room just seconds after walking into it!

Either way, as the poster below confirms:

Indeed, it was.
