Due to the club’s off-field misfortunes and subsequent nosedive over the last decade, Keane feels Luton are a very much a big fish in a small pond.
He said: “We’re out of place in this league and need to get promoted – that’s how a lot of fans feel.”

He said: “As a local lad it doesn’t surprise me that so many fans are coming on Sunday.
“They know it’s time to really support the team.
“It can bring pressure though, it’s important that we don’t disappoint them.”

He added: “If we do win we can push on. Look at teams like Crawley and Stevenage. There’s no reason we can’t compete in League One. “Even in the Championship, you look at one or two of the teams in there and you think that we could we do it.”
