“I’m just going to put them next to each other and think how far we’ve come since last season.”
Promotion was achieved without kicking a ball for Town in the end last month, as Portsmouth and Sunderland both lost in midweek, ensuring the Hatters could finally celebrate at home against Oxford United.
On how he heard of the news, Justin said: “About half seven, I left my phone downstairs, just zoned into my PS4.

“All the message going through the group chat were incredible and it was one of the best feelings of my life really.
“We couldn’t really celebrate, so I just popped open a bottle of champagne, as you do with your parents.”
