    Didn’t support Bury did they? Derby also got support they didn’t deserve. Makes you sick…

    Yeah please excuse the red crayons on here, because some fans aren't allowed sharp objects. :D

    I must admit they were brilliant on stage, at Skeggy Butlins, in the late 80s. :)

    I’ve not posted on this thread up to now as I didn’t want to seem too harsh.

    I do feel sorry for the staff that work there but that’s it.

    I absolutely despise them. No other club comes close.

    I don’t want them to go bust as I wouldn’t want to wish that on any club but I can’t lie I would love for them to end up down in league two with successive relegations & not win a game all season.

    Wembley certainly added to it but I’ve always hated them more than any other local club. I’ve never understood the arrogance of the fans talking about the size of the club. I used to listen to praise or grumble loads before I moved in with the Mrs & all their fans seemed to have a huge sense of entitlement. They talked like they belonged in the top flight.

    Throughout my time following football they’ve been in their neighbours shadow. In my time following the game they got relegated from the top flight a couple of years in & then have spent as much time in the 3rd tier as they have in the 2nd. The only time they’ve come close to rejoining the elite was when Chansiri was throwing money at it.

    With a bit of luck it’ll be Barry Bannan & a bunch of kids playing Guiseley in the league within a few years.

    Big shame, was really looking forward to it mate. Only watch Red all Over, though not always regularly, so would have been good viewing with some of your ideas you put forward. Either way, I completely understand your reasons why you aren't going through with it bud.

    Hope you're well

    Reports suggest Wendy WILL be getting a significant points deduction. Possibly in the next few days.
    30 was the biggest for Luton. 2008/9.
    Can't see em getting owt like that but can only hope. Will certainly affect the asking price.

    Two different deductions for that 30 though, 10 by the FA for irregularities and 20 by the football league and that was an agreed deductions for non football related matters, out the two looks like only the 10 points would be comparable

    1 point for every 10,000 they've got would exceed the standard 10 points surely....?

    There isn't an abacus big enough to count that many points.
