THE NUMBERS SAY LUTON SHOULD BE 5TH… SO WHY ARE THEY 16TH? 😳 After an extended international break, the Town return to Sky Bet League One action with a short trip to Adams Park to face Wycombe Wanderers. Kev and The Lutonian journalist James Cunliffe look ahead to what feels like a hugely important contest — and there's plenty to discuss before Saturday's trip to Buckinghamshire. The boys begin with some of the good news since the Bradford defeat, reflect on Luton's two Jersey Mike's Trophy victories and then turn their attention to Wycombe. They look at the Chairboys' style, their threats and weaknesses, who Luton need to watch out for and where the Hatters can cause problems. But there's also a BIG discussion around the numbers. Following Jimbo's analysis of Luton's defensive statistics on The Lutonian https://thelutonian.com/the-luton-defensive-numbers-that-wilshere-believes-tell-a-very-different-story-to-their-goals-conceded-column/, Kev says Wilshere needs to use the data to understand why the Hatters are underachieving so badly — with the numbers suggesting Luton should be 11 places higher in the table, sitting fifth. But as Kev puts it, it's time to move away from virtual predictions and make it happen in real life. The boys also pick their starting XIs and discuss exactly what they want to see from the Hatters and, of course, there's a score prediction. And there's another reason for optimism… Luton have NEVER lost at Adams Park, while Wycombe are still waiting for their first league win at home this season. Can the Hatters keep that record intact? 🎙️ They Tried To Kill Us Off... 🏆 Nominated for Best Football League Podcast at the Football Content Awards #LTFC #LutonTown #COYH #Luton #Wycombe #LeagueOne #FootballPodcast ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- *********BRAND NEW******** ☕🍺 Want to support They Tried To Kill Us Off? 👉 https://ko-fi.com/theytriedltfc If you enjoy the podcast and want to help us keep it going, you can now support the show through our new Ko-fi account.

THE INTERNATIONAL BREAK IS DRAGGING… SO WE DID SOMETHING DIFFERENT. 😂 With two weeks of international-break boredom still to endure, Kev and Jimbo are back in the studio for a special They Tried To Kill Us Off... episode. This time, YOU asked the questions. Plenty of you did and the boys answer as many as they can — covering a much wider range of topics than the usual Luton Town chat. There’s football, of course, but we also get into FOOD, MUSIC, MOVIES, ANIMALS and plenty of other stuff as Kev and Jimbo reveal a little more about themselves away from the usual match analysis. Some serious questions. Some silly ones. And some that neither of them were expecting... 🎙️ They Tried To Kill Us Off... 🏆 We've been nominated for Best Football League Podcast at the Football Content Awards WE NEED YOUR VOTE to stand a chance of winning in the Best Podcast - Football League category at the Football Content Awards on November 19.

THE DISAGREEMENT EPISODE. 😤 Luton went into the international break with a frustrating 1-0 defeat to League One leaders Bradford City — but there’s plenty to disagree about after Saturday’s game. Kev is joined by The Lutonian journalist James Cunliffe to dissect the defeat, starting with events before kick-off and an interesting stats package from a rather unexpected source. The boys then get into Luton’s rotten start and the big call that almost immediately backfired. But was it all bad? And then there’s the fallout since the loss. Jimbo challenges some of the criticism aimed at the Hatters and brings the stats to back up his argument. Kev has his say too… So who’s right? 🎙️ This is They Tried To Kill Us Off... 🏆 Nominated for Best Football League Podcast at the Football Content Awards WE NEED YOUR VOTE to stand a chance of winning in the Best Podcast - Football League category at the Football Content Awards on November 19.

CAN LUTON BOUNCE BACK? 👀 After the disaster at Stevenage, the Town return to Kenilworth Road on Saturday to face Bradford City — the side with the best defensive record in League One. Kev and The Lutonian journalist James Cunliffe look ahead to the challenge posed by Bradford, including their biggest threats and what Luton can expect from the visitors. Then the focus turns to the Hatters. What changes should Jack Wilshere make after Stevenage? And which forgotten Hatter do the boys think absolutely needs to return?

ANOTHER NIGHT TO FORGET. 😤 Luton suffered another fruitless trip to the SPORTA Arena on Thursday night as Stevenage beat the Town 2-1. Kev and The Lutonian journalist James Cunliffe dissect an evening where things went wrong, almost from the very start, and ask what needs to change if Luton are to get their season back on an upward curve. Kev also picks out one statistic that sums up a major concern: George Johnston touched the ball three times every minute. And as Kev puts it, that isn't going to get Luton promoted. The boys go through the performance, where the Hatters fell short and what Jack Wilshere needs to do differently going forward. Plus plenty more of your comments than usual on the leading award-nominated Luton Town podcast. 🎙️ They Tried To Kill Us Off... 🏆 Nominated for Best Football League Podcast at the Football Content Awards WE NEED YOUR VOTE to stand a chance of winning in the Best Podcast - Football League category at the Football Content Awards on November 19.
