Luton boss Rob Edwards: Wolves defeat undeserved

Luton boss Rob Edwards says no-one is giving up staying up after defeat at Wolves.

The Hatters lost 2-1 on Saturday.

Edwards said, "I'm disappointed because we didn't get anything from the game.

"It's frustrating how we conceded the two goals. but I have got pride in how we kept going until the very end. After a difficult week last week it's good to see that.

"That's the stuff we can hang on to going into the final three games. Points-wise we are on a difficult run but we're still in this. We still fully believe.

"We were playing well in the first half, but it's one direct ball and then a deflection to take it in. The second one is disappointing, a loopy cross comes in and we should defend it better.

"We showed character and spirit, we could have conceded more but we rode it. We are frustrated not to take anything from the game, I don't think there was much in it today."

On whether the players still believe, he added: "I think you could see that today. If they didn't believe it could have been a lot worse today, you would have seen it on the pitch and I didn't see that at all.

"We thought if we're going to lose it then it's by going to chase an equaliser and that's what we did.

"The performance today from last week [losing 5-1 against Brentford] is a positive step.

"Wolves had some real quality today with players coming back. I just don't think there was much in the game."
