Re: Luton town FC

There's more about Luton's points deduction and about Rotherham and Bournemouth's position on the Football League website: http://www.football-league.co.uk/pag...341988,00.html.

The other ten points was given weeks ago for the issues they had regarding illegal dealings with agents.

Re: Luton town FC

I would expect that they will probably run concurrently. A 30 point deduction would pretty much relegate them immediately so would they not tak ethe view that we are down regardless so lets just let 15 kids play? etc etc and for example only. They may as well save on wages and put it towards next seasons Conference campaign

Re: Luton town FC

Got to say, I think Jimmy Bell has put both feet in it in tonights Evening Telegraph. Very crass comments that the club could well do without, especially when you consider what happened to Stanley in 1962. Sorry JB but you made a mistake with those.http://www.thisislancashire.co.uk/sp...nts__cushion_/

Re: Luton town FC

Couldn't agree more with you OUTBACK..we can think that (having a 'cushion') but to say so publicly?-very immature me thinks. I think Jimmy probably regrets saying it now.

Re: Luton town FC

For anyone thinking of buying a season ticket the thought we might need such a cushion might not be the greatest encouragement to pay up hard earned cash.

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.

Re: Luton town FC

Whilst Bell is out of order making public his views, I find it hard to have much sympathy for Luton. They've been over-spending for years, trying to achieve successes on the pitch and now they are facing the consequences of doing that. Three administrations in 10 years says it all. Other clubs have had to struggle year in and year out for any success they may or may not have had. What makes Luton so special?

What goes around, comes around.

Really great to see solidarity between clubs. When Accrington next face going bust - Us Luton fans will you remind you of the comments made above. It is a sad state of affairs that Jimmy Bell takes pleasure in another clubs misfortune.

I have to echo the previous comment. It is sad to see that Jimmy Bell has the same narrow-minded mentality as Mawhinney. This could be any number of clubs in the FL, including Accrington.

Lower league football needs each other to survive the big guns and cronies that make up the top 4 club pact currently driving the game out of recognisable exisitence.

I wonder if Jimmy Bell reads this and if he, or the club, would care to re-comment on his comments?

I can't understand such a crass statement coming from one of our senior management team, imagine how the poor fans of Luton must feel (remember we have been there)what must Luton think of our once great club with comments like these, i really hope Eric disciplines & fines him or even better sacks this idiot, i really feel ashamed to be associated with the club at this point in time.

PS. I hope and prey the betting scandal episode doesn't rear its ugly head in the non too distant future and ends up with a huge points deduction if we are found to have been a little naughty - just a thought!

I just hope, Bell, that ASFC's chairman takes the fan above's advice, sacks you and that you never work in football again.
