More misery for Luton

Goals from Louis Dodds, Robert Taylor and Marc Richards saw Port Vale pile on the misery for Luton as they ran out 3-1 winners at Kenilworth Road. The Hatters failed to make immediate in-roads into their 30-point penalty as they could only find the net through a Sam Parkin consolation, despite dominating early on. Chris Martin headed over in the fifth minute, Lewis Emanuel fired straight at Vale goalkeeper Joe Anyon six minutes later and Asa Hall drove just wide from the edge of the penalty area in the 16th minute. But it was the visitors who took the lead in the 26th minute when Martin was caught in possession and Richards fed Dodds to drive home with an instant right-foot shot from 20 yards. Parkin headed home a Kevin Nicholls corner in the 34th minute to level matters but Vale went back in front in first-half stoppage time as Richards ran passed Ian Roper and crossed for Taylor to tap home. Luton failed to match their first-half work rate after the interval and Richards sealed the win in the 58th minute - firing into an empty net via the cross bar after Hatters goalkeeper Dean Brill had mis-kicked straight to Kyle Perry.
