1988 Littlewoods Cup Final - Luton Town 3-2 Arsenal

After 103 years of trying, and in story-book fashion, Luton Town finally win a major trophy. The penalty save by Andy Dibble and the headed goal from Danny Wilson are climaxed by the winner in the final seconds from Brian Stein.

Classic vid of a classic final back in the day when cup finals like this meant something! Shame to see the fa have crippled a club like luton nowadays. Hope they bounce straight back. Your 40 thousand fans were a credit to your club and town last week at Wembley, congratulations! All the best!

Thanks for the upload! This reminds me of the good days; when football was about football, not about wags, big sponsorship deals, Sky subscriptions, foreign imports, prawn sandwiches and billionaires! Luton had some brilliant players back then, such as Mick Harford, Brian Stein, Ricky Hill, and Steve Foster etc... I remember watching this game, after finishing my paper round! I was about 12 years old. Good memories, RIP Ray Harford!

i just looked through my old vids that i turned into mp4s and there were the 2 luton finals in their entirity - i have just watched the second half again - absolute gold. the adverts are funny as well - a guy with the biggest mobile car phone you have seen in your life and a vauxhall for less than 9 grand!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

thanx for the memories this vid has provoked. I was at wembley that day - and it was the most amazing second half in history. I went down to the local pub - the chequers in westoning - a couple of days after the match and andy dibble was there - and i was able to relive some of those magic moments with him. later that week i wasin the bookies in flitwick and there was brian stein - again i was able to chat about the game (my own private post match interviews - unbelievable!!!

What has happened to Luton in the last years is a real shame. Nobody should have allowed such a historical club fall so low.

What memories!! RIP David Preece, Ray Harford and the great David Rocastle. I was 7 years old and watched the match in my full Luton strip then went out and played in the garden re-enacting the game.

Saw Nigel Winterburn in my local Tesco about 6 months ago and had to restrain myself from hugging him. Who the hell let him take that penalty?.....and why is he playing at Right Back?
