Sun 20 Jan, 04:46 PM


Manager Martin Ling says Leyton Orient "deserved victory" over Luton but felt the winning margin should have been "more comfortable" than 2-1.Former Luton striker Adam Boyd put Orient ahead before Andy Barcham doubled the hosts advantage. Keith Keane grabbed a consolation goal for the Hatters but it was not enough to inspire a comeback.

Ling said: "We should have put it to bed from the breakaways we had and it should have been more comfortable. All in all, it was a deserved victory.

"Any win is an important one. This was against a club who for all their problems can still put out a very good side.

"New manager syndrome always makes it difficult. It was a hard-fought victory and I thought we defended well, apart from the blip for the goal."
