It’s the morning after the night before and the defeat, to Burnley, still rankles.
On another day we could have hung on for a point or if we’d have taken our chances all three points.
But we do still live to fight another day and, more importantly, the Hatters remain in 4th place, occupy one of the play-off places and will remain so, for another week, unless Watford can beat West Bromwich Albion 5-0 on Monday evening, something that isn’t going to happen.
Scouring the media for Rob Edwards thoughts on the game, it appears that the gaffer, when talking to the BBC was in a reflective mood and picking up on the positive aspects of his sides’ performance, remarking:
“I’m so proud of the lads putting on a performance like that after a tough night at Preston, a quick turnaround and then going up against comfortably the best team in the league.
“It was a penalty. We are human beings and there are going to be mistakes. There were very few out there as the lads gave everything and fought so hard.
“The lads were unbelievable with their energy and we had some quality as well.
“We limited a really top team to very few chances, and we could have done better in the one big moment that we had.”
As honest as ever, it’s, once again, hard to pick fault with any of the points made by Edwards.
The team did give everything and only the penalty, which Rob thought was a genuine call, knocked us out of our stride, Burnley showed their quality and why they are top of the table by a clear margin, it augers well for The Hatters, now let’s concentrate on Birmingham City, at St Andrews, next Saturday.

Luton – Paying The Penalty As More Points Are Lost
It was a great performance against the man City of this league. No argument with the pen, but it hasn’t been said, ir shown on TV highlights, the handball by a Burnley player on the half way line in the build up, that wasn’t given. That was why lock’s was so angry….& …yes missed chances cost again unfortunately. Just a word to Chris don’t jump down people’s throats for sticking up for players, when ady was going through a similar barren run earlier, you were having ago about others getting on his back just remember what you post. When I said he was young & inexperienced at this level, I meant in comparison to strikers at the clubs around us.
Alan,did you not see the lol and smiley face after that comment to mh that I was joking with mh !!! Nothing more
what a pleasure to seeing burnley’s slick passing game.who would have thought little old luton could have held them so well. i hope lockyer’s red is recinded. RE must be so proud of his players grit and determination, playing against the top team in the championship.. the strikers will get back to scoring again, then we can really move on.COYH.
