Wow what a game for these 2 teams and for the neutral.
You have to applaud both as they have both been resurrected after both being on the brink or extinction.

Luton we’re playing NL football in 2014
Coventry we’re playing in L2 in 2017

In that season 2017/2018 both teams were promoted from L2
Luton 2nd
Coventry 6th via play offs

And Leyton Orient finished 13th in NL

Shows there is hope for all lower league teams.

Good luck to both and hope it’s an absolute cracker of a game

Yes please, got them @ 4/1 in my treble with Sheff Wed 13/8 & Stockport 7/4 when I put it on before the Play- Offs started. When Wednesday lost 4-0 I thought it was over.

Great pens, apart from the last one obvs

Well played Luton, gives hope for all the rest of us what can be achieved with a good manager and players giving it all for the cause. Love the fact they've got a player who's been with them from NL all the way through the leagues.

It will be interesting to see how they get on next season.
Also note their ground only holds a thousand or so more than us.

National League to Premier League in nine years. We have five years to do the same.

Granted these are a league above where we'll be but you can see the size and athleticism of the players. Need a couple of imposing players in the same mould coming in to give us an edge next season.
