Rob Edwards was introduced to the press for the first time as Luton Town boss on Thursday afternoon, shortly after it was confirmed he would take over at Kenilworth Road.

Putting pen to paper on a minimum three-and-a-half-year deal, Edwards said: "It’s a fantastic challenge, a brilliant football club with some brilliant people here that I’ve been lucky enough to meet over these last few days, so very, very lucky and really looking forward to it.

"We believe in ourselves and I think the guys here [Gary Sweet and Mick Harford] believe in us. It’s not just me, it’s everyone together and that’s what it’s going to take to have success at any football club, it doesn’t matter what level.

"I feel there’s real similarities here, the people here and the plan and the way things are done to what we had at Forest Green, and I know we had success there."

The 39-year-old shared the importance of finding the right fit for himself, as well as the club, which he believes is the case at Luton Town.

"That was one of the biggest things, it was as much now for me to make a decision and to pick the right next thing for me.

"Once we sat down and the three of us spoke first, straight away I felt ‘this feels right, this feels right for me.’

"Because as much as obviously a club wanting to appoint me, then I’ve got to make sure this next thing is, I can see a future with me building something at the next place as well.

"It had to be that way, and that’s something that I feel here."
