Town boss Rob Edwards had mixed emotions after seeing his side come from behind to earn their first home win of the season against Sheffield Wednesday.

The Hatters trailed with 13 minutes remaining but two goals from substitute Carlton Morris were enough to see off the Owls at Kenilworth Road.

“It was far from the performance we wanted in the last two games but we’ve won both,” said Edwards afterwards. “We need to build momentum and confidence as it’s been a difficult start.

“We didn’t start with the intensity we wanted, and when you don’t get that it gives the opposition a lift and our crowd are then thinking ‘come on’.

“But we shot ourselves in the foot for their goal and it was hard to try and wrestle back momentum.

“We got back in it, somehow, and that, along with the red card and the impact from the substitutes, was great.

“It’s been hard leaving people out but when you get reactions like that, it’s amazing.

“We’ve ticked off a few boxes now, we got the first win and first away win last week and now we’ve got the first home win and hopefully that can kick us on.

“But if you don’t play with that intensity then we’re going to make it difficult for ourselves. We know we can’t be perfect all the time – we’ve just got to try and find that right recipe.

“It’s good to win when you’re not quite at your best, especially as I think there’s more to come from this group.”
