Still undecided if he will be on the bench for this evening’s game

The 62-year-old former Dagenham & Redbridge boss was only unveiled as Luton’s new boss at Kenilworth Road this afternoon, but is undecided if he will be on the bench or watch from the stands.

He said: “I’m going to have a meeting with the staff. It’s important players never get mixed messages.

“So I will speak to the staff. If they are set up and everyone understands what the staff have told them, it would be wrong for me to try and mess around with it.

“That doesn’t mean to say I won’t be on the bench. I will be at the game, but I’ll wait and see how I go with the staff.

“And once I think this is the best thing for the football club to do this evening I will do it.

“Will I be on the bench? I don’t know. Will I be watching in the stands? I don’t know.

“Whatever it is I believe it will be the right thing for the football club tonight.”
