Luton's  right back (the No 2) was the best player in both games. He won't be playing non-league next year.

Completely agree, he was ace. Do you know his name?

Claude Gnapka???

He was in Peterborough's team that won promotion last year but his agent started touting him around & Darren Ferguson called his bluff.

I doubt he will be gracing us with his presence in the BSP next season!

I was reminded of Michael Holding circa 1976...

I agree, Gnapka had pace, but his end product was awful and that more than anything explains why Peterboro released him. Luton's best player in both games by a country mile was Keane (their captain I think). He's some tough guy, sitting in front of the back two and preventing us from getting any shots in. It would be interesting to find out what Luton fans think of these players.

I thought Nicholls the no 8 was there best player.

We gained the upper hand significantly in both games when he was substituted.

Kevin Nicholls is their fav player as he asked to come back from leeds to rejoin them when Luton were in trouble and also Keane is a quality player, stood out a country mile when I saw them v Accrington.
