As long as you can fund your fraudtastic club whats the harm if you allegedly kill a few tens of thousands of innocent people!?!? On the flip side, Rio Ferdinand not having a leather recliner chair at a ground for commentating, is clearly more than enough to get you kicked out of the PL......and rightly so......Rio deserves his reclining leather chair.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thankfully for now at least, it’s based on merit and not how marketable a club is. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

desensitized43 Posted May 27, 2023 Share Posted May 27, 2023 Congratulations to them. I think they’ll find it nearly impossible to stay up and it could be that Derby’s record is under threat. If I were them I’d spend as little as possible. They could spend 100m and still go down which for a club of that size would be horrific. Take the money and run. Invest it in the infrastructure of the club and put some foundations in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair I think there are minimum stadium standards, so I'm not sure the comment was based on snobbery. I could well be wrong though. I thought under pitch heating was a requirement as I remember Craven Cottage didn't have it at one point, but Google suggests I'm wrong on that one.

villan-scott Posted May 28, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted May 28, 2023 I’ve not watched any of their games other than yesterday’s and I know it’s not fair to judge off the most nerve wracking game of the season - but thought they weren’t great. Their intense press will get played through in the Premier League you’d think and their direct play negated. Will be a long season for them! Their story is impressive and Mpanzu coming from non-league to Premier League with them is great, but have a feeling they’ll trouser the money and go back down without huge investment on the pitch which is their prerogative. Of course all of the above may be completely wrong - will be interesting to have a different name in the league after a long while away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just that it seems a bit elitist/wrong from the PL to have these standards, when it has no standards when it comes to owners etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Luton were hosting Man Utd in the QFs of the FA Cup, the media spin would be "the magic of the Cup that a team like Man Utd have to travel to a ground like this". But for the PL?

Mantis Posted May 28, 2023 Share Posted May 28, 2023 Think they'll do a Blackpool next season - surprisingly strong early start but then run out of steam and go down. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaulC Posted May 28, 2023 Share Posted May 28, 2023 Sorry I don't feel the excitement about Luton getting promoted. No great history. Decent team before on their plastic pitch. Think they will really struggle in the prenier league Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
