Luton Town Football Club

Three men were sent off as the Town lost at home to AFC Telford United.

It was a goal three minutes before the break that won it for the visitors when Kieron St Aimie's header's header beat Mark Tyler.

The Hatters pushed for a way back in the game after the break but could not find a way past the Telford defence.

The game turned ugly 11 minutes from the end when Daniel Preston and Ronnie Henry were sent-off for an altercation in the penalty area.

Stuart Fleetwood rattled the bar, Jon Shaw saw an effort hacked off the line before visiting substitute Jake Reid was sent-off for a challenge on Lathaniel Rowe-Turner having only been on the pitch for 69 seconds.

It was 10 versus nine for the final few minutes but after six added minutes the visitors held on.

Full report to follow.
