'This week is make or break'
- Published
Luton are simply the team that never quit. However, this performance was different to the rest of our recent performances, whereby we have played fantastic football but got nothing out of the games because of errors leading to goals which gives the opposition a head start.
Yes, there was an error leading to the goal against Crystal Palace, but we stayed in the game. Although it wasn’t a performance that earned us the plaudits of that against Aston Villa or Manchester United, it was a performance where we showed grit, determination and pragmatism to earn a point with only five seconds on the clock.
We now have two games over the next week, with these fixtures looking crucial in the relegation run in.
Although Bournemouth are very much out of the relegation scrap, we should be fired up considering it is the rematch of that game in December which was suspended due to our captain, Tom Lockyer, having a cardiac arrest.
But we can’t let that occasion distract us from the six-pointer against Nottingham Forest, which is quite frankly a must-win game. It’s at home, they are the team directly above us, and we simply can’t rely on potential point deductions - considering the appeal decision comes a week after the conclusion of the season.
If Luton Town are to stay in the Premier League, this week is make or break.
We will do it our way.
