'If It's Football, It's Vital'

Good start to Luton's pre-season

Luton made a confident start to their pre-season friendlies with a 4-0 victory over near neighbours Hitchin Town.

With Chris Coyne, Paul Underwood, Carlos Edwards and Sol Davis missing, Luton fielded a different side in each half, giving triallists Lewis Emanuel and Sam Stockley the opportunity to stake their claim for a contract.

'We always give the players a half each because sometimes players can pick up niggling injuries the longer the games goes on. We usually break the players in gently.

'It is all about easing the players in and we will probably play two different sides against St Albans on Wednesday night and maybe against Stevenage on Saturday. The longer pre-season goes on, the more the team will begin to take shape.

'Some players take a little longer to find their touch. We wont judge anybody on tonight's game. At the end of the day it is all about being ready for the first Championship game in August.'

LUTON (First-Half): Marlon Beresford, Kevin Foley, Leon Barnett, Markus Heikkinen, Peter Holmes, Danny Stevens, Kevin Nicholls, Stephen O'Leary, David Bell, Steve Howard, Rowan Vine.

LUTON (Second-Half): Dean Brill, Sam Stockley, Lewis Emanuel, Russell Perrett, Keith Keane, Steve Robinson, Ahmet Brkovic, Dean Morgan, Michael Leary, Warren Feeney, Calvin Andrew.

not a bad little win at all. Even against friendly opposition, still gives you a small amount of momentum. Just have to build on it now
