A RELIEVED Luton boss Rob Edwards branded it a “good day” as his side ran out convincing winners against sworn enemies Watford at Kenilworth Road yesterday.
The Hatters led through Jordan Clark’s deflection after 11 minutes, with Carlton Morris netting moments after the interval and then Jacob Brown sealing the victory in stoppage time.
It ended a run of three matches without a victory for the hosts, and, speaking afterwards, Edwards said: “It was good. We had a good day here in April last year, and we’ve had another one today.
“I’m really pleased for the supporters today because I know how much it means to them.
“It’s been a big two weeks, and we knew we had to respond after the disappointment of our last game (against Sheffield United). The lads have done that, they’ve gone and shown it today.
“It looked like it mattered to us. It looked like they cared. It looked like they understood the magnitude of the game, so we’re really, really proud of them.
