Preston North End 1 Keane Luton Town 0
PNE line-up: Woodman; Storey, Lindsay, Hughes; Potts, Thórdarson (Holmes, 73), Whiteman, Kesler-Hayden; Keane (Greenwood, 73), Frøkjær (Ledson, 64); Riis. Subs not used: Cornell, Whatmough, Stewart, Okkels, Bauer, Best.
Luton Town line-up: Shea; Mengi, McGuinness, Bell; Ogbene (Walsh, 67), Baptiste (Nelson, 85), Clark (Woodrow, 78), Doughty; Morris (Taylor, 78), Chong (Walters, 67); Adebayo. Subs not used: Horlick, Anderson, Burke, Mpanzu.
Attendance: 15,245 (1,248 Luton Town fans).
Referee: Mr D Whitestone.
What a day, as Eurosports cycling commentor Carlton Kirby would say, started off with the first brew of the day being without something vital commonly known as tea leaves, the replacement then accidentally found it's way into my nether regions when I knock it over, dropped the box with the cats Dreamies for the second time in two days. Then walked about 400 yards before realising had left my phone in the car.
From then on the day got better two Acca's up and my solitary bet on a nag won, followed by a win on the pitch.
Has to be said we did have a vast amount of good fortune, the Hatters should have had a penalty in the second period, given as a free kick just outside the box, close call.
A better atmosphere than in recent weeks, a couple of changes from last week Kesler-Hayden and Keane started, they started well, passed and moved the ball well, looked danger going forward especially Chong, good player this lad, first effort on goal from us Riis with a shot from distance well saved by Shea.
Woodman pulled off a good save from Morris from one of the plethora of corners that Town got
Mr Drysdale kept giving them free kicks in good positions they wasted the lot, they were finding it easy to run through midfield and Baptiste really should have put them ahead but failed to hit the target when well placed.
It was to cost them dearlyabout 6 minutes to half time Frokjaer to Kesler H who backed flicked the ball onto Riis who found Leane who found the net, 668 minutes since we last did that in a league game.
We managed to get to the break 1 up unchartered territory in recent games.
We had occasional forays into their half in the second period but it was mainly one way, we defended excellently, bodies blocking shots, when the defence was breached Luton couldn't get past Woodman, had a great game although his distribution is still pants. Corners a plenty Alfie Doughty must be one of the best dead ball players in this division, in a far from dirty game Mr Drysdale booked most of our players, he had an iffy game.
We hung onto the end three points against a side who will go close to going up, one foot forward and in other news the comedy club on the coast blew a 4-1 lead
