Luton went into this game havin not played for a significant number of weeks,
and lacking in match fitness. This was obvious in the early stages of the match as Luton failed to reach the form they are
capable of. Concentration wandered once Borough went one up and Eaton took advantage by stealing the lead. Borough drew level
at half time and finished the half rather rusty.
A kick up the backside was all the boys needed and they soon found themselves three
goals to the good.
This was a great game to clean up a few cobwebs.

Borough flew out of the traps this sunday and put six great goals past Dunstable. A
controversial decision to play regular goalkeeper Adam Weston outfield paid off when he pulled a magical diving header out
of the bag in the second half.
Luton keep the pressure on Limbury who are buckled this week and are now only one point
away from Luton. This makes the next meeting between Luton and Limbury very interesting!

Luton came out on top this week against stiff oppostion. It took alot of work to beat
Saint Martins and the boys certainly put it in.
Some of the best football the lads have played all season broke down Saint Martins'
midfield.
Also, new set peice tactics are proving very useful.
All in all a great performance, and a needed win which heaps pressure onto Limbury Saints
at the top, who only managed a draw this week and are now only 4 points ahead.

Luton were lucky to have their game go ahead as most pitches were water-logged, and their cup game last
week was called off.
Borough managed to get the game going and broke through early on. The goals steadily piled up, and with
goal difference in mind, managed to put 5 past Eaton Bray.
The Lions' manager, admirably approached Luton's Manager and captain to compliment Borough on their standard
of football, the spirit of their game, and the heroics of the respectable stand-in goalkeeper Niall Sexton.
Eaton Bray Manager - " I don't mind losing 5 - 0 to you..."
The lads seem to be back on track.

Luton threw away a lead that would have took them clear top.
A pathetic refereeing display allowed the Limbury keeper to blatantly handle outside the box without so
much as a freekick.
This defeat gives Luton a small mountain to climb in order to win the league, and they cannot afford any
more slip-ups.

Luton may aswell have not turned up to this game.
A complacent performance by the lads saw them crumble. A needed wake-up call for Borough.

Luton won their match after a 3 week rest. It took most of the first half for Borough
to find their stride but the deadlock was finally broken by Dominic's surging run.
A little match fitness was clearly missing but the lads had just enough to carry them
through. Debuts for Nick and Keiran were also included.
An appauling lack of concentration saw NGS put 2 late goals past our defence. Overall
the boys showed that even with a lack of match fitness and sharpness, they still have enough quality to win the match.
The league is shaping up for a two horse race between ourselves and Limbury Saints who
Luton beat 11 - 1 in a pre-season friendly.
