In the noon game live on Sky, City gave Luton a goal in the sixteenth minute when Matty Pearson was allowed to head in from a corner before substitute Jordan Shipley equalise in the 34th minute to earn the Sky Blues a 1-1 draw.
Robins, who brought all the players and management over to thank the City support and show backing and support for everyone trying to ensure that the Sky Blues have a future, told the media: ’We conceded a really rubbish goal, we’ve been working on drills for hours like that, but we still conceded it, it shouldn’t have come to it.
‘’Lee Burge should’ve saved it, fortunately he made amends right at the death to keep us in it and pick up the point in the end as it was their last chance.
‘’Luton are a really good side, it took us a while to get used to it and get our foot into it today, but once we did get our foot into it we looked good too and caused a threat.
‘’Luton is a really hard place to come and it was a tough-earned point, it’s the first time this season they’ve dropped points after scoring the first goal, so that’s very pleasing for us.
‘’We had a young team who all played really well and stuck at it, we lost Bakayoko early doors, he should’ve won a penalty, from where I was it was a clear penalty. Following that we scored a good team goal for the equaliser, it was a hard-earned point, but deserved which we worked hard for.
‘’It was important for us to get a goal back today, after the news we’ve hard it’s vital we keep going, keep getting the results and the supporters keep cheering on the players too, it will all give us a chance.’’
