In any event we need a new stand to stay up ourselves and there is another relegation place. We do not know what if any points deduction Rotherham or Bournemouth may get.

Got to say that the obstacles Rotherham look to face before any start to the season look extremely daunting.

Why sack him just becuase of the things he said we all make mistakes its about learning from the mistakes if he does read the forum than he knows he will have to win some the fans support back (not mine becuase i respect him and stuff already) but who else is going to work that well with coley,only signed 2 new players, with one maybe leaving hopefull not as i like him alot, just forget what he said look foward to a good season in league two, getting a higher position than last year scoring more goals, letting in less having a top defence, more singing on the clayton end

A very silly comment.

some things are best unsaid, this is a shoot yerself in head comment.

again though its the ordinary fan that suffers, more suitable would be punishment big time of the people that put these clubs in such a position.

myself i would not speek like that about a team. if some one said that about us we be **** off . that that

Just a word of caution - what we don't know was how the reporter framed the question and how much of Jimmy's answer got printed. I stopped buying papers nearly 20 years back when I saw concrete evidence of a journalist manipulating an interview with someone to produce a story when there wasn't one there for real.May be Jimmy did respond with the obvious that any clubs with a deduction give the rest a comfort zone.Doesn't mean he likes the League's decision anymore than any true football fan.I hope Luton appeal and it would be nice to see Stanley and others support such appeal.

Accrington Stanley owed money in 1962 and ended up...well we all know how they ended up...but these days clubs like Luton can merely cheat their way into staying alive via administration. It's good to see the FL finally clamping down on this practice.

Although that said, I do also feel for the true Luton fans - after all its not their fault the board cant manage to at least break even, even with a trip to the Kop last season.

to be fair to jimmy - liberal journalism could have been used.

Jesus_was_A_red_ · 15-07-2008, 14:55

Confirmed today Luton WILL start with a 30 point deduction. 10 wins to get to 0pts.

it was Jimmys weekly column. I understand that people who have columns send an article with however many words max and that is what gets printed. They would only edit for space reasons.

I was flabberghasted when I read the article but 'I knew what he meant'. He has only said what the rest of the league is thinking but he didn't word it very well.

maccawozzagod · 15-07-2008, 16:36

as fro the points deduction I thought the 10 point from the FA was very harsh in lieu of the circumstances. I also thought the 20 was ridiculous but hadn't realised that it was their third administration in 10 years. Clubs are going to have to learn to keep their house in order because its unfair on the rest - especially clubs like us that have nothing to even borrow against.

Is this the same Luton Town that banned away supporters a few years back ?, Is this the
same Luton Town that introduced ID cards for Home fans,?is this the same Luton Town Margaret thatcher held up as the future for all football clubs.?Save your tears you bunch of cissies,they have got of lightley.

And to be fair 'the Reds' should'nt, and I reckon, will not have to rely on the default of Luton Town, and possibly Rotherham and Bournemouth, to retain their Football League status !. Having acquired the necessary nous and experience from the battles of the last two seasons, the Management and Players should, and I believe will give a better account of themselves in 2008/9.

We shouldn't really be too concerned with the problems surrounding other clubs...just with getting behind OUR
team, and remembering what they and we stand for!!.

'ON STANLEY ON !!'

'What me worry '...not about Luton Town I dont!!
