This for me was a big win and the most important to date.
And another clean sheet.
Football just getting better and better and real enjoyable to watch.
Passing the best for years.
But I will say thanks to numerous saves by our goalie Trott who kept us in the game when Luton attacked.
My man of the match Nathan Trott save after save.
There were 3 changes from Tuesday's win - @chriswillock, @10DavidTurnbull and @CallumRobinson7 come in
Salech on bench
Turnbull went off injured and Tanner is out as well, We def need strengthening as more injuries will happen and Winter coming soon.
City played some good football and their passing is getting better and better.
The players also look fit unlike previous years.
FIRST-HALF: City had dominated for 25mins but no real threat then 25 min Robinson great shot and forced the Luton goalie to tip it over the bar.
As time went on Luton took control and and for me Nathan Trott was our best player first-half.
31mins: Joel Colwill replacing injured Turnbull
Trott for City made a few good saves as they took control for a while.
Trott made more saves.
Cardiff had 8 Shots Luton 7 Shots
But 2 of 14 successful crosses by Cardiff.
SECOND-HALF:
48mins Nathan Trott brilliant save from Mcguiness header.
Luton were far better this half and for long periods took control.
Then 68min Willock took in his man and shot and yes goal 0-1
69min Double Sub: Yousef and Calum replace Callum Robinson and Dylan Lawlor
87min, Rubin should of scored v just the keeper.

Yep, very impressed.
Your point about fitness is well made. I don’t think I can remember a Cardiff team pressing with such intensity and winning the ball back even if they’ve lost it so often.
That’s definitely come from BBM and just watch Colwill (R !!) putting everything into getting the ball back. That was his major weakness and probably why Bellers wasn’t picking him for Wales but the penny seems to have dropped and he’s nailing it right now.
Even Willock won a tackle to set himself up for the goal !!
Long may this continue because even old gits like me are getting excited !!

We could be having a great season ahead by the looks but yes trying not to get ahead of myself yet , but this manager has got them playing , I was dreading this season but how wrong I could be hopefully.
Bit worried for turnball , will be a big loss , he reads the game so well .

Yes I can only Praise BBM so far.
