Luton Away

[Gray]

There are criteria for promotion through the pyramid and, to a degree, in the football league (standing etc). Therefore I see no reason why certain capacities shouldn’t be compulsory the higher up clubs go, even if a time limit is imposed. Two clubs in, supposedly, the best and richest league in the world with capacities of less than 12k is a pisstake.

I like to see new sides in the PL but agree with you. Minimum of a 15k stadium would be my preference.

They have but Luton council have always stood in their way. They wanted to build one outside of luton just oft the M1 between Luton and Milton Keynes but the FA said they would have to change their name.

Even if every ticket had been sold individually via a transparent Loyalty Points system, we'd still have 2000 regulars without a ticket and people complaining.

However, I'm not convinced that we should be blaming Luton or Bournemouth for effectively being more successful than Sunderland, Birmingham, or Sheffield Wednesday.

Quite right. I dont like it when people bleat that clubs are too small to be in the prem. eh? Theyve earned their right to be there. Good luck to them

Thats the beauty of football

it's seems an age ago when you could turn up at an away game, no ticket, decent terrace a few seats, and a huge following could be accomodated, never to be seen again

Part of the problem is that Luton's capacity was probably OK when terracing was allowed, and there is no space to develop the current site.
They'd be hammered by everybody if they bought a street of houses and evicted the owners. Unlike you know who up the A580.

And ran down the area to de-value said houses
