Tony Thorpe forces the ball over the line for Town`s only goal
Thorpe gets a lucky equaliser but with the confidence of the Luton team at a low ebb, the good fortune is not capitalised on. David Eyres is left unmarked to steal in to convert a cross from Tony Lormor, and Lee Ashcroft completes the misery when he rolls the ball into the net.
