Luton Town are comfortable with their Championship survival hopes having been written off, says boss Matt Bloomfield.

The Hatters have won their past two games, and only goal difference is keeping them in the relegation zone.

"We've been written off many times, which is fine," Bloomfield told the BBC's EFL podcast 72+

"Football is all about opinions, but to lead a life in football, resilience is a crucial characteristic, and every time you get knocked down, you have to pick yourselves up and keep fighting."

Luton have two games of the season remaining, at home to Coventry on Saturday (12:30 BST) and then away at West Brom on 3 May.

"We're still below the line and know there's a huge amount of work to be done to get ourselves above it by the end of the season," added Bloomfield.

"We're very pleased with the way the last couple of months have gone, but there's lots more work to be done - we've got our feet firmly on the ground, we've got two really tough games coming up, but we believe in the work we're doing."
