Luton manager Rob Edwards’ decision to rest his frontline players backfired last night as the Premier League side suffered Carabao Cup humiliation against 10-man Exeter.
A late winner from Deme Mitchell – would was also sent off - condemned Luton to defeat and ensured newly-promoted Luton’s start to the season would go from bad to worse.
It was just reward for Exeter after Edwards opted to field a side that showed 10 changes to his 1st XI that set about earning the club its first Premier League point with a 1-1 draw with Wolves at the weekend.
