Oli Lynch (pictured) bagged a brace for the fourth league game in a row as the young Hatters, coached by Alan McCormack and Alex Lawless, won 3-1 at Northampton yesterday with Zack Nelson also on target.

Lynch's double and goals from Archie Heron, Jake Burger and Under-16 Jacob Vickers had helped the youth team to a 5-2 success away at Brentford on Saturday.
