Charles returned to Luton’s starting line-up for only the second time this season in Saturday’s 1-0 win at Woking.

He said: “That’s what happened in pre-season. There may have been a set team that the gaffer wanted to go with at the beginning of the season. There was an injury to myself which was an opportunity for Lacey who’s taken it and done really well.”
