True but at least it won't be us getting a likely 5-0 battering.

OK forgetting JT though I think the rest of the Luton team are probably unsettled too with their current position considering they were in the PL last season.

Who could potentially be a good fit for our team that we can likely afford?

According to transfermarkt he's worth £350k so Luton would never get anything like that sort of transfer figure for him. As that is the sort money a championship club would pay in a transfer fee and no club in that league would pay that for a striker who has scored no goals in a season.

And if he is released as may be the case depending on how long his contract has left to run then I imagine he would likely leave on a free. Then its just the wages to be sorted and agreed depending on who goes for him.

Agreed its unlikely he would join us but sometimes players have to go down 1 or 2 leagues to find their true level.

I do agree however that we need LT back sooner rather than later though as he is a much more reliable goal scorer than Hopper could ever dream to be.

0 goals in 9 appearances for Luton this season but he did way better when playing for us & Lincoln. Perhaps its time for us to try him again to rediscover his form.

I must admit that I was a bit baffled as to why Wilkinson was moved on & Jay & Hopper remained at the club when really the latter 2 should have moved on and we would have had the opportunity to bring another reasonably good striker in. The club really needs to look at the high earners and how much of a role they've played in their positions to see if it warrants them staying at the club in this transfer and and more specifically this summer when Jay's & Hoppers contracts are up.

It would have been funny if they appointed Wayne Rooney instead...

Sadly summer signings can go wrong just like they can in January. The fact is all clubs (not just us) can make good and bad signings in both transfer windows though I would class the summer for more permanent signings and January more to fill gaps and sign permanent players in if summer transfers have gone wrong.

If LT & ST are both out for a while then we are really going to have to go for another striker or 2 then perhaps loan out or mutually agree to release the likes of Jay.

Luckily the FA cup has cut us a break this time to regroup and potentially sort out incomings & outgoings.

What a lousy game, we really need some new signings and quickly.

All the more reason to move him on unless of course Exeter have put more clauses in the contract of sale based on a percentage of transfer fee received and possibly appearances at other clubs (if he is loaned out)..

Whatever way you look at it he really does need replacing if he's not going to make the first team.

Yes, I can't see Jay staying much longer either unfortunately. A 29 y/o striker should be a regular first team player rather than struggling to even make the bench. He'll probably be loaned out & then released at the end of the season.

Saying that I'm not convinced by Hopper either as although he's not a bad team player he is not a good quality striker. But because he's regularly picked for the 1st team he'll likely remain with us until the end of the season. Though I think Hopper & Jay will probably both move on at the end of this season so hopefully decent replacements for both will be found.

Apologies if there is a transfer thread I'm opening a thread for the January transfer window which has now opened.

Who should be a potential signing for us and who should move on either via loan or permanently? I've heard Kyrell Lisbie & Gus Scott Morriss mentioned as potential targets but could they potentially make the jump from NL to L2? Some players do but others don't.

Plus actual transfers that we bring in & out can also be mentioned here.

My conclusions from the match:

1) We need to work more on set piece defending as the defenders for the 1st goal just did not read where the ball was possibly going and a defender should have been at the far post where Swindon's first goal went in and the marking should also have been better for their 2nd goal.
2) Our midfield need to work more on getting involved in the attack more & reacting more quickly to supply the strikers up front if we are playing 4-2-3-1 Esp if Hopper is up front as although I'm not doubting his ability as a player his goal scoring ability is just not good enough.
3) Cowley needs to make substitutions sooner rather than later as Swindon had more fresh legs through their subs and he didn't react quickly enough.
4) Iandolo was very unlucky to be sent off tbh as he went for the ball and collided with the Swindon player.
5) I'm sorry but the refs decision making was poor - though at least he was consistently poor as he made a number of bad decisions against both sides.

I watched the match on sky and never saw any handball.

Sorry but I stick by the fact that that referee was awful though tbf I'm also not saying that we played well because we didn't - I've no idea why cowley picked Hopper ahead of Taylor

The fact is that referees should only act on actual fouls and not potential fouls that never happened.

1) that free kick shouldn't have even been a free kick.

2) The penalty at the end wasn't even a penalty, our player never touched him.

3) sent iandolo off when he never even touched that diving swindon player.

There's 3 reasons.

I'm sorry but that referee was totally incompetent at doing his job

Or Huddersfield... the cowleys have had chance to sort the defence out and they just haven't done so. We can't keep relying on others this needs sorting quickly.
