And now, after back to back to back promotions in 2017, 2018 and 2019, Luton Town is knocking on the door of the Premier League. The thought of Premier League giants like Manchester City, Tottenham Hotspur, Arsenal, Manchester United and Liverpool coming to the world famous Oak Road away end, is entirely surreal. The sheer relief for Luton to be promoted back to the Football League was immense, especially after consistently falling short in the play-offs. As older Luton Town fans will recall, the club was one of the founding members of the Premier League, but unfortunately were relegated the season before the big kick off. Luton Town was on the news for the wrong reasons. The dizzying heights and the horrific lows of the English football pyramid.

DANIEL MATTHEWS AT KENILWORTH ROAD: Come the end, Luton's ambition of bringing Premier League football to these parts was still alive after this semi-final ...

Hello and welcome to our coverage of the start of the Championship play-offs! Luton, who finished sixth, will be desperate for a good result at home against a Huddersfield side in terrifying form, winning their final four matches as they finished third in the table. Corberan has gone for a body-warmer on the touchline. Huddersfield have made a change at wing-back at the break. Sinani swings a devillish cross in from the right. A familiar pattern is emerging; you get the sense that Huddersfield would do a lot more damage were they given the possession Luton have enjoyed. Not from this delivery, which whizzes clear of a packed penalty area and out for a Huddersfield throw-in in a dangerous area, from which they win another corner. Luton clear the initial corner from Huddersfield's right at the near post. This was a patient performance from the Terriers, scoring a splendid goal on the break, absorbing Luton pressure and dominating the ball as the game went on. Perhaps tellingly, Huddersfield have had two-thirds of the possession in this half so far. They're about to take their seventh corner of the game. This match saw a brilliant scrap of a different kind as Huddersfield drew first blood through Danel Sinani before Sonny Bradley levelled the scores.

Sonny Bradley scored as Luton Town drew 1-1 against Huddersfield Town in the Sky Bet Championship play-off semi-final first leg.

Danny Ward saw his effort deflected out for a corner, with the Hatters eventually clearing their lines. After a strong period of possession, Town would find themselves level on the half-hour mark. James Bree kept his place, after he returned to Town’s line-up against the Royals on Saturday. The only change was on the substitutes bench, as Peter Kioso came in for Admiral Muskwe.

But the referee might have seen that Jerome was waiting for it. We scored but then we didn't have enough of the ball to develop our style like we did in the second half. It will be another very demanding game at home, but we want to keep going in the playoffs. But the referee didn't think so and we need to respect the decision he made for both teams. We know that at home we'll have our supporters backing the team and for me that and the condition of the pitch should help us. We controlled it well, but unfortunately we couldn't defend the lead we had. "For the second, my immediate thought was penalty. It was impossible to tihnk we could close out the semi-final today. "They're a good side and it will be difficult, but it's all to play for. But it's one of those things and they'll be saying the same. Cornick's delivery from deep on the left was pinpoint to meet Bradley at the near post, and he fired past a stranded Nicholls for their to add an 18th goal from dead balls this season. I know they had half of one too, but obviously I see it through orange eyes.
