Luton are now a point behind Nottingham Forest in the battle to stay up after Forest's 2-2 draw with Wolves.

But this was never a game manager Rob Edwards would have expected something from.

He practically said as much afterwards in the news conference.

The Luton fans who made the trip enjoyed themselves and made plenty of noise - these are the kind of games they would have been looking forward to, and perhaps fearful of, after last season's promotion.

Luton managed four shots, although they were good ones with Cauley Woodrow hitting the crossbar and Barkley finishing following a stepover after a City defensive mistake.

Luton's next game - at home to Brentford on 20 April - is huge.
