LUTON met their fate with pride, humour and the same problems which have haunted them all season.
Needing a miracle, they slipped to a fifth defeat in their last six games, conceding four times to a Fulham team with nothing to play for.
Only Sheffield United ended the season with more goals conceded than Luton's 85.
A double from Raul Jimenez and further strikes from Adama Traore and Harry Wilson confirmed the inevitable for the Hatters.
Luton have often played some good football this season and scored decent goals of their own through Carlton Morris and Alfie Doughty.
But they went down managing only one win in their last 18 matches, and now face some difficult questions this summer.
Boss Rob Edwards was in tears after last weekend's 3-1 defeat at West Ham.
