“Against a side who are newly promoted to this league, no disrespect to them, but if we want to be up there towards the top of this league then we need to beat teams like Luton Town.
“We had enough of the ball, but we have to be better when breaking down these sort of teams and you cannot give away soft goals like we did today.
“The combination of that was our undoing and it was similar to the opening day game against Charlton.

"It was an opportunity to put a good performance in, win well, push up the table and look ahead to Tuesday night.
“We needed to create more chances, get behind teams more, fizz balls across the box.
"We didn’t do that enough and didn’t have the guile.”
