MKL 10-3 Phantoms. Lightnings biggest league win against Peterborough was all but guaranteed after an incredible first 2 periods. 10 is also the most goals we have scored in a game vs the Phantoms, equalling the playoff game in 2002-03 (10-0, 12th April 2003).

On this day in 2008 the Luton vs Bournemouth match was abandoned after 7 minutes due to bad weather conditions. Most of that time was taken up by the officials as they were deciding whether to call the match off or not

On this day in 1986 Luton Town beat Liverpool 4-1 at home in Division 1.

MKL 12-1 Pitbulls. A dominant display from start to finish from Lightning, with 8 different players getting on the scoresheet. It’s only the 2nd time MKL have won 12-1, the other was at home to Romford Raiders back in 2009 ⚡️

Luton 2-1 Leicester. Enjoyable game, helped by playing football in the opponents half rather than in front of our own goal. Talking of which our 1st goal came from the Foxes doing exactly that. Controversial decisions went our way, and a injury time winner gave us a deserved win

MKL 3-1 Seahawks. In a battle of the top two it was Lightning that came out on top. Both teams will think they should have scored more and would have if it wasn’t for two inspired goalies but it was the team that should have scored more that did. Great game ⚡️

On this day in 1886 Luton Town won 4-1 at Watford Rovers.

Mack Stewart scores a penalty shot to make it 5-2

MKL 7-3 Steeldogs. A fast and furious game that was closely contested until Lightning pulled away in the 3rd. That Norris, Weight & Thomson line is looking something special ⚡️

If you are wondering what the referee, Nat Whittaker, looked like then you are in luck. Here he is pictured in the Millwall team photo of 1894-95. I found the pic on the site linked, which is well worth a read: thestrawplaiters.com/library…
