Luton Town 3-0 Crawley Town

Pilkington joined Luton from Port Vale in July 2008

Luton continued their good start to the season with an easy win over Crawley to go third in the Blue Square Premier.

George Pilkington gave the home side a deserved lead in the 36th minute, pouncing on a loose ball in the box.

This sparked Crawley into life, with Eddie Hutchinson firing wide and Jefferson Louis having an effort saved.

But Pilkington nodded home just after the hour to double Luton's lead, before Tom Craddock got on the end of Claude Gnakpa's cross three minutes later.
