Heslop strikes up fine partnership with Keane

New midfielder calls on fans to help spur the Hatters on

New signing Simon Heslop urged Town's supporters to be their 12th man in their quest for promotion after helping the Hatters to a 1-0 victory against Wrexham on Saturday.

The industrious midfielder struck up an excellent partnership wit Keith Keane in midfield and the pair's energy helped the Hatters to grind out victory.

Tom Craddock's fine 36th-minute striker proved decisive, while Town had Mark Tyler to thank at the other end as he expertly tipped Andrew Fleming's excellent second half strike on to the underside of the bar as Luton kept their first clean sheet at home since mid-September.

He said: "It was brilliant. The fans really got behind the lads today. If they keep getting behind us, we've got a lot of home games coming up and they can be our 12th man and give us a push.

"The first half we were really good. Pressing the ball and passing it about in the final third.

"Second half we didn't. It was a little bit more disciplined and we got through the game.

"I was speaking to the lads after the game and they said it was the first time since September they've kept a clean sheet at home."

But he was glad to have got through the game and the 22-year-old believes he will only get better.
