Luton Town transfer news: Jones reveals injury to on-loan Aston Villa keeper ‘not a good one’, Celtic still keeping tabs on £20m Bristol City star

Luton Town suffered a 2-1 defeat away to Middlesbrough on Saturday with a first half penalty from Paddy McNair opening the scoring.

Duncan Watmore secured the three points for the hosts with Boro’s second late on but the visitors got an injury time consolation through Harry Cornick.

After the match, Hatters boss Nathan Jones said: “First half there was very little in the game, we didn’t defend one situation well enough and conceded. Then it became a scrappy game, tried to generate enough but there was no flow.

“We had some chances second half and had we taken those we might have seen a change. I am disappointed with our first half performance and then massively frustrated with how the game pans out.

“We had the best chances. Second half we tried to generate as much fluency as we could, but we just didn’t take one of those. It was disjointed and that can be Championship games, it is just what it can turn into.

“Isaiah Jones punched the ball into the stand, kicked the ball away twice and nothing happened, then our lad falls over and gets booted, and yet it is a free-kick the other way. Things were going on.”
