Luton fell to a 2-0 defeat at Stoke City on Tuesday night, a game that turned out to be manager Nathan Jones’ last in charge of the club.
Two goals inside the opening 15 minutes were enough for the previously out of form hosts, as the Hatters couldn’t find a way back into the contest.

![Available again after suspension, the centre half had a tough opening 45 minutes, as Delap gave him a real challenge aerially. Had to be careful after a harsh early booking and then giving away another foul soon after. Looked to try and play out from the back when he could with some good forays, as he needs games to get into a real rhythm following a stop-start season.](https://www.lutontoday.co.uk/webimg/b25lY21zOmU1NDhmMWNhLWJmOTItNGMyMy05MzQ5LWQ5NzEyNTE1NTJmZToyYmRjYTU4ZS00NTBlLTRmMzktYjVhOS04NjI4NmVhMjA3OTg=.jpg?crop=3:2&width=640)

![With Stoke’s efforts coming mainly down the visitors’ right hand side in the early moments, he couldn’t do much to prevent the Potters from netting twice to move in front. Sent over a good cross that Morris really should have done better with, while after the break, did his best to create an opportunity for the Hatters to pull one back.](https://www.lutontoday.co.uk/webimg/b25lY21zOjE5YzU1NWM4LWJkZjAtNDFmNi1iNTAwLTJhM2NhYzMxYTFkNDo3ZWRlZDBjMS03YjMwLTQwMDYtYmNmOS04MmU2NjZiZTBhMDk=.jpg?crop=3:2&width=640)

![Usually such a livewire in the midfield for the Hatters, he didn’t get out to press Morgan Fox twice inside the opening 15 minutes as the Stoke player had time and space to send over two crosses that both ended up in the Luton net. Replaced with 20 minutes remaining as Town tried to find a late leveller.](https://www.lutontoday.co.uk/webimg/b25lY21zOjQwOWJiMmIyLWE3Y2ItNDdiNS05YjRlLWRkNDg4MTViY2VlZDo0MmQxYzY1NC03Nzk2LTRhYTItODE4ZC0xM2M3ZWM4MGIyMGE=.jpg?crop=3:2&width=640)
