But it was only a dozen and the police stopped it quickly, as someone said those few got roundly boo'ed by their fellow Luton fans. In fact ne bloke has his kid, about 6, hanging from it took a picture and a copper just put his hand on his shoulder, smiled and the bloke went off holding his nipper...
Absolute Bollocks and the bit about the copper smiling...makes me even more cross, give us our money back
I was on the PDB and there were some Luton fans behind us. They were quiet but when one went and shook hands with one of the real Policeman, I assume they were mates, why were they not sent to be with there own. Obviously the ticketing did not work

I dont see why they felt the need to come into the home end, the official away attendance was 2797, thats a good 500 short of that we gave them!
Yes they are a disgrace but I bet that the confernce board won't have the balls to do anything about it. This isn't even their first offence this season. They kicked off when they played Cambridge away and 7 of them were arrested. I was working in Cambridge the monday after theat game and it was all over the radio about how the scenes then brought back memories of the dark days of the 80's which some Luton fans it seems have not moved on from.
I would like to thank each and every Diamonds fan this afternoon for not rising to the bait....the potential for serious disorder was huge once the Luton "fans" were on the pitch. Not much else to say that hasn't already been said, I so hope Ranks scores a hat-trick against them!

The last time we played at Nene Park, in a pre season friendly, they even had a group of fans that got on the PDB until the stewards removed them to the Airwair.
There were loads of them in the DeBanke today
You're knocked out with who I am,
Look at you now, you're all in my hands.
I completely agree with everything that is being said about the Luton fans, cavemen idiots and I hope they get what is coming to them! The police didn't even look remotely interested in stopping them from entering the field of play and I was quite surprised that none of those mindless buffoon's went for any of our players, who again had no protection of any sort while walking off the pitch.
All of our fans done extremely well not to get involved, but I don't think we can be proud of all of our lot today. Whoever joined in the song "you're just a town full of p*ki's" is an embarassment to the club in my opinion and there's no place in society let alone football for any racial remarks.

i'm not in the force but know a few that are, in days gone by (not sure if it still stands)but police are there to SUPPORT the stewards and only move in if requested. that request comes from the safety officer of the day. so don't blame the police if the facts aren't known.as for the FANS in pdb they could have been inteligence officers put in by the force to keep an eye out for luton fans in there.

They had actually sold that out apparently, so no idea why there was that few :?
