I'm amazed that people seem to want Luton to get battered every week. I have never had any affection for Luton whatsoever - but what they have achieved is truly remarkable & I love that international superstar plays are going to have to deal with the lower league "charms" of Kenilworth Road (absolute dump of a ground) I certainly hope that they will knock a few noses out of joint in the Prem & give every other club trying to get there that it is possible to at least try & compete. Of course, everything suggests that they could well break records as the worst entrants to that division, but I will be smiling & chuckling away to myself with every point they manage to take of the other clubs in that division. Good luck Luton..!

It's only a semi permanent structure, so I'd imagine they'd be able to get a team to knock it up in around a week. The planning permission (lack of) seems farcical.! Why wouldn't you get that in place before beginning & removing the very limited seating that they did at least have in situ.? It does all seem very odd indeed.

I supposed he is going to find a role model & inspiration an Interesting kind of guy..!

That would explain many of his post match rants - getting experience in already.

You don't need to apologise for being ignorant. You already suffer your fate from that curse as a result of the team ot has set you up with ?

Good. I'd hope that was our aim. May not be possible, just because it's what we'd like. Top 10 would be reasonable - we we absolutely should be aiming for the play offs.

I'm not sure that failing to achieve a MINIMUM target makes anyone particularly happy.... I'd hope that, another year into the process, we'd be expecting a slightly better increase than 6 points. The rest I agree with. Top 10 & generally better would be sufficient - as a minimum.

18th, 2 points off the drop zone & 1 win in our last 9 games - didn't have you atall concerned that we might be in trouble..? OK then.! You've obviously got steadier nerves than I had at that time.!

I wouldn't say outstanding - but we certainly recovered from Christmas time & it all looks more promising. We do need to push on this coming season though. Another season bottom half wouldn't really be showing much progress, imo.

Yes, the draw at Millwall proved to be a turning point to regaining some form & it was desperately needed. We started really promisingly & it seemed that just repeated silly errors were costing us - but beyond the Creditable Norwich away loss & Millwall away, we looked like we were reverting to type, from the previous 18 months. Maybe I was a little over paranoid back at the time - but had those previous 18 months of absolute dross (bar the odd exception) getting me down maybe .! As I said - hopefully this season will see the longer term plans come to some fruition. I'm targeting a top 10 finish as sign of progress & hoping we may at least be in touching distance of top 6 throughout the season.

I agree with alot of what you say (apart from us being utterly dire around December time - we were) Fingers crossed that this season shows that it's all been part of a plan that is starting to work.

I agree. That is basically what I said - but it amazes me that people think he's done better than anyone else before him. Hopefully this season will see things come to fruition..

That's entirely different to away pricing, which is (or was) capped by the league rules. Home ticket sales like that are a case of supply & demand & why people should support their local team.

You don't think so.? I certainly did & the majority of people I spoke to at the time did aswell. We were utterly dire.!

You make it sound like he has done well here and we should all be delighted with the last 2 seasons..! Now don't get me wrong, I was surprised & pleased when we appointed him. His first year was a disaster, but we all understood that a large project of rebuilding was underway. By December, I wanted him gone as we looked utterly clueless & destined to be relegated. A turn around since then gave a little more optimism for the future - but you make it sound like we have some messiah at the helm.! He has been below average up to this point - hopefully because of needing to tighten the belt - but this season will be all on him & we've/he's got few excuses to get away with another dire period again. Hopefully it will be steadily onward & upward from here - but less that a top 10 finish will be disappointing inho & anything more will be great - anything less & we will be back to square one - with a totally unremarkable 3 years having passed us by. I really don't get why some feel the need to have their tongue quite so firmly up his arse, like he has actually done anything to be very pleased about here, yet. Hopefully this season will justify my initial enthusiasm over his appointment.

Aren't away tickets in the Prem capped at £30 - or did that not carry on.?

The bloke is a typical deluded, gashed nause - but I think we can do better than to mock him so a speech impediment. There are plenty of things to pick on them about - I don't think a guy who can forge a career on the Radio, despite such an obstical is really the way to go with this. Fair play to him (or anyone) who can overcome the odds in life. If he was in a wheel chair or blind I'd hope we wouldn't see that targeted as a weak point, so let's leave the speech impediment digs out - I know you are better than that ?

Terrible news & so sad! RIP

Surely you'd also have to take off the goal contributions from one of their other strikers to even consider taking that into account - which is an utterly absurd argument anyway! Can we sue the club we signed any disappointing player from because they didn't score the goals needed to get us promoted.?

It's not the new stand. That's the one they build a couple of Seasons ago that didn't have a row M.

Because someone is pointing a gun at them off camera & making them hold up the shirt.....

Ah right, thanks ?

25% (or 1 suitable end) in the FA Cup I believe.

Yet many teams use it as a very effective weapon. Stoke caused havoc to Prem defenses when they first went up & cup shocks are often down to this type of set play. I think the higher up the leagues you go, the less you see of them & then teams aren't used to dealing with it when they come up against it.

Cup games have totally different allocation rules.
