You just have to applaud the opposition.
Grimsby deserve to go through, getting a draw at Luton was a great result for them taking the few chances they had.

And then showing they wanted it more than us at their place.

We have been the giant killer in the past and have listened to the oppositions fans whine.
We now keep the push going for the Prem.

Good luck to them,they have earned it.

Grimsby are behind us in development but, like us, they are building the club on a sustainable financial platform. They are not betting the farm or the plaything of an egocentric spiv. The evidence is that their approach is successful in the long term. The cup money they can look forward to will hasten that.

Let them have their moment in the sun, the two clubs are heading in very different directions for the future.

(Reply)>> Different directions ? Yes, we’re exiting the cup and they are marching into the 5th round

“Let them have their moment in the sun” is pretty patronising and exactly the kind of attitude Luton fans get their knickers in a twist about when we play bigger clubs.

Wasn’t long ago we were in their position. Are we really forgetting that already?

That post isn’t goading, it’s just banter. I’m sure we’d have done the same.

Good luck to them in the next round. Good, proper club with a decent board it seems.

Fair play to them we'd be the same

Well done Luton

We managed to go 45 minutes without conceding a goal against Grimsby; a team who, player for player, are superior to ours in terms of skill, attitude, physicality and match awareness.

Shocking team selection - think of the 500+ fans that have travelled.

There's also a long thread where posters are just making stupid fish-related puns and not discussing the match at all !
Wouldn't want to see any nonsense like this on TheFishy:

Taken it pretty well, I'd say.

I remember going on The Luton Outlaws website several years ago and I found it very hostile and threatening. It's nice to see some of their posters appreciate that football is very cyclic, especially to fringe and ' not fashionable clubs'. One day you are the dog, the next day you are the lampost.

Love the reply to the 'opposite direction to us' comment.  Priceless. Worth a gold star.

Back in the day that was called damning with faint praise. Brilliant!
