It was a game we all thought that Luton Town would win, but it just did not happen for the Hatters.
After the 5-0 mauling, last time out, at the hands of Birmingham City, it was essential that Luton, ahead of the international break, took something from this game.
And if that something is a single point, courtesy of the 0-0 draw, then so be it, it is, I suppose, labelled as progress.
But things could have been so much different.
After a dour first-half, Luton dominated the second half and had the chances to take that much-needed win.
Campbell, working hard in midfield, saw his shot hit the side-netting while Onyedimna saw his effort, perhaps harshly, disallowed for offside.
Other efforts saw Cornick hit the bar and Bree curl an effort wide, but the ball just would not go into the net.
As a result, Luton sit in 12th position, a familiar position, in the table as we head towards the first international break of the season after which a trip to Ewood Park, to take on Blackburn Rovers, awaits us.
