Stearman came up against his former club and with the struggles over the summer to get in quality players, Wayne Rooney made it clear that he was satisfied with a point.
Admiral Muskwe made his debut for Luton in their grand 3-0 home win v. Peterborough. Muskwe who recently joined after his release at Leicester, came on as a sub late second half. Cedric Kipre was in the starting line-up for West Bromwich in their late Friday 2-2 away opener v. Bournemouth.
Daniel Iversen had to see four balls behind him after a terrible season start coming on early on and taking over the gloves from an injured Declan Rudd after just 13 minutes.

George Thomas came on late in the game and did secure a draw, both goals in the game were scored in the first half.
