Luton Town manager John Still told BBC Three Counties Radio:
"I don't think we played great today. Maybe games are catching up with us, and them, with all teams I think.
"We were very competitive - we kept going and came back twice, but creatively we weren't good enough today.
"I get my point across - some times more forcefully than others - but these are good young men that are working hard and that deserves a bit of respect.
"We haven't played well through a lack of effort, just a lack of quality on the day. So there is no need to smash teacups yet."
