Luton Town – It Is Going Right Down To The Wire

Two games to go and although our current form is far from sparkling, there is still hope that the Hatters can stay up.

Although Nottingham Forest won, I saw enough to convince me this relegation fight is going right down to the wire.

Next up for Luton Town is a trip to the London Stadium to take on West Ham United, a Hammers side that were trounced 5-0 by Chelsea, on Sunday.

Incidentally, it is Chelsea, who beat us home and away this season, that could be instrumental in our survival plan, as it is the West London side who Nottingham Forest play next, at the City Ground.

After Chelsea’s recent run of form, with the club looking to secure European football next season, I’m confident they can, playing their counter attacking football, go to the City Ground and secure a win.

Now if my forecast does come true, with Luton Town beating West Ham United and Chelsea beating Nottingham Forest, it will set up a cracking final day of the season with Luton Town welcoming Fulham to Kenilworth Road and Nottingham Forest having to travel to Turf Moor, to take on Burnley, who I’m guessing would just love to finish the season with a flourish.

Who is to say the following pundit, on social media, hasn’t got this one spot on!

Holmes returns to train with Luton after bringing his lengthy Reading career to an end

New Luton defender Tom Holmes will spend the last few weeks of the season training with his new team-mates at Kenilworth Road to get an early taster of just how big the step up is from League One to his new surroundings.

The 24-year-old brought the curtain down on his 16-year career with the Royals last month, having come up through the ranks with the Berkshire club, as he made the final of his 133 appearances for the club when coming off the bench during the 3-2 victory over Blackpool, his first game in three months due to a back injury.

Given a terrific ovation by the Reading fans who were hailing a player that joined Town in January, but was then loaned back to complete the campaign at the Madejski Stadium, where he was restricted to just a further four outings, when speaking to the Reading Chronicle, Holmes said: “It’s a new challenge and I’m straight in with them to see the level. I will get ready, have a couple of weeks with them and in the off-season get ready to hit the ground running.”
