Season Three: September-October Update
Results
We opened September with a win over Bradford before suffering a defeat against a very strong Burnley side. We then won eight and drew one of our next nine league games, but we also lost to Millwall in the Johnstone's Paint Trophy, not that I cared about that competition much anyway. We did lose one final match over the course of the two months, away to a brilliant Brighton side which featured the likes of Kuszczak, Upson, Richardson and Frimpong. I'm delighted with our results over the two months. We played fantastic football and thoroughly deserved our results.
Player Of The Month
Euan Smith takes the praise yet again. The on-loan striker scored seven times over the past two months, which is outstanding. He has been sensational for us this season, once again, and is deservedly the league's top scorer.

Sky Bet League One
I don't know how we did it, apart from our sensational run of form, but we have climbed to the top of the league in amazing fashion! Thirty-three points from sixteen games is sensational and is fantastic for us, a team tipped for relegation. The stand-out stat that has lead to our sudden rise in the league table is that in sixteen games, we have conceded just eight goals. This shows how solid our team is under our new tactical regime. They've been superb.
November-December Fixtures
We play a total of nine games over the next two months, including an FA Cup tie against Oldham (League Two). Hopefully we can come up with some good results to keep us around the top end of the table.
Luton Town News
I was offered a two-year contract extension at the start of September, and I wasn't going to say no to securing my future at the club until 2018. Hopefully I'll win plenty more trophies at the club!
