WELCOME TO GREAT HATTERS

Luton Town has had its share of legends. Goal-scoring greats, giants in defence, midfield wizards and goalkeeping heroes. Here is our tribute to the best of the best.

	01.08.2004 WELCOME TO GREAT HATTERS Luton Town has had its share of legends. Goal-scoring greats, giants in defence, midfield wizards and goalkeeping heroes. Here is our tribute to the best of the best.
	07.07.2003 Bob Morton A true one club man, Bob Morton holds the appearance record for the Town which is likely never to be beaten. After signing from local club Waterlows as the war drew to a close, he eventually made 495 league appearances for the Hatters before bowing out as a 36 year old in 1964.
	07.07.2003 Peter Nicholas Welsh international Peter Nicholas was the final piece in the mid-season re-structuring at Kenilworth Road which enabled the club to stay in Division One in 1985. Along with Steve Foster, David Preece and Mick Harford, Nicholas formed part of the new backbone of the side that became a platform for the glory years of the mid to late 1980s.
	07.07.2003 Emeka Nwajiobi Nigerian born Emeka Nwajiobi was picked up from non-League Dulwich Hamlet in November 1983 by Luton manager David Pleat on the advice of John Moore and within two months had made a scoring debut in a home game with Nottingham Forest.
	07.07.2003 Syd Owen Syd Owen had signed on with his home city club, Birmingham, as the war ended but due to the large number of professionals on the books at St Andrews at the time he found it difficult to claim a first team spot.
	07.07.2003 Bruce Rioch Almost a local boy, having moved to Luton at the age of 14, the young Bruce Rioch was tempted to Kenilworth Road by scout George Martin and signed professional forms in September 1964.
	07.07.2003 Jesse Pye Jesse Pye had done it all in the game before his surprise move to Luton in the summer of 1952. In a glittering career at Wolves, he had netted almost a century of league goals, scored twice in the 1949 FA Cup Final, been called up for England and had a host of representative honours to his name.
	07.07.2003 David Preece When Luton manager David Pleat was given money to strengthen the Luton squad just before Christmas 1984, one of the players on his list was tiny midfielder David Preece, who had been attracting the scouts to Fellows Park, Walsall for several months.
	07.07.2003 Les Sealey Although born in the east end of London, Sealey made a name for himself as a fearless goalkeeper at Coventry before moving to Luton in 1983 for £100,000 where he became the regular number one during the glory years of the mid to late 1980's.
	07.07.2003 Bernard Streten A well regarded amateur international goalkeeper plying his trade with Shrewsbury, Bernard Streten was enticed to Luton following the recommendations made by his old team mate Frank Soo, who was by then on the books of the Hatters.
