Saddlers draw Old Boy

Last updated : 11 October 2008 By Andy Van Hagen
The draw for the Southern Section JPT has been made and Luton Town will be making the visit to Walsall's Banks's Stadium, week commencing 3rd November.

This means Ian Roper will be given a chance to return to Walsall but there will be a question over whether he will feature. 'Ropes' has not played a single minute since Luton's opening day 3-1 home defeat by Port Vale.

After being deducted 30 points at the start of the season Luton currently lie on -18. Their 12 points gained would have seen them in twelth position in League Two if they were starting from a level zero.
