Ahead of the trip to South Wales, to take on Cardiff City, it was acknowledged that it would be a difficult fixture.
However, our blind loyalty did suggest that the Hatters might surprise everyone and get a result.
How wrong we were!
The Hatters produced, arguably, the worst performance of the season in slumping to a 4-0 defeat.
In fact, it was reminiscent of the dark days when Graeme Jones was in charge.
Naturally, such a glum result was not well received by the Luton Town support on social media, with the fans not afraid to let rip as the posts below illustrate:
Awful. Awful. Awful.

Embarrassing

Defending like that combined with our severe lack of goals is going to cause us a real problem

Indeed, it could, if Nathan Jones cannot engineer an immediate recovery then our good start to the season could all be in vain as we slip down the table, something another poster was keen to point out:
How the players and management respond to today ,will go a long to gauge how the rest of the season will go.

With another providing the perfect antidote to such an abysmal display:
What an absolutely diabolical performance! At times, it felt like we were drifting into Brentford away territory. The only difference being their quality.
So many issues, on and off the pitch. We dont need to forget it, the players need to sit and watch that back multiple times.

And, of course, there is always someone willing to go to the extreme:
Jones out

Hopefully, that post was left in jest.
But what is wonderful in what is a truncated season, the fixtures are coming thick and fast. This Wednesday evening, we welcome Norwich City to Kenilworth Road, for a Championship fixture:
Terrible performance. Shocking defending, hardly anything going forward, very poor. Onwards to Wednesday

And, if you need a positive from the 4-0 defeat, how about this post for an uplifting thought:
Still 4 points off the playoffs. 🤪
