“We’ll be in a really good position, I know that going into next season. Again we’ll stress, we do want to keep the majority of the group together and I’m pretty sure we will do that. We don’t know what’s going to happen, we’ve got a long couple of months ahead now, a period of time where not much is going to happen I’d have thought and then pre-season begins and things start ramping up a bit, so time will tell.

“We’re in a really healthy position to keep doing everything, grow the training ground, the stadium is obviously progressing all the time and a squad of players that I think is constantly improving. My challenge is for us, the recruitment team, board and everyone is to try and have a better squad at the start of next season to what we have, which is difficult but what we’ve got to try to push to achieve.”

Being in the top flight has certainly shone a light on Luton’s talented players though, as they now have now performed at the highest domestic level possible which could lead to the vultures starting to circle. Edwards wasn’t worried if their displays have ratcheted up the interest levels, as he continued: “We’re prepared for that, we’re under no immediate pressure to offload people, to raise funds, anything like that, we’re not at all.

“If anything was to be done, if anyone was to leave, it’s got to be right for the football club, it’s got to then be right, we think, for the players and all parties involved. We’ve got a plan and we’ve had a number of discussions already. We’ll be as ready as possible, but it’ll be a long season, the off-season. I don’t think loads and loads of stuff will happen, people don’t really want to be buying people, paying them when they’re on the beach, so we’ve probably got another few months to be ready for all that sort of stuff.”
