    Maybe we wanted him last January and MK said no and we signed Ludewig on loan as a second choice and then with the world changing MK accepted the offer this time?

    I hope he does a brilliant job for us and then sell him for millions because theres no doubt if he is a success you will never stop them bettering themselves as we all would do. Some people on here moan if we dont sign players and moan if we do.

    Maybe. I personally highly doubt it based on who we did sign in January (was a common theme), but nobody other than the club and the player will be able to answer that for us.

    Not moaning but openly state that in my opinion we are a basket case of a club.

    I obviously don’t have a clue.
    Just offering another version of how we could have been after for a while.

    You've got to laugh. Dane doesn't help himself does he?

    Stop making out this is an exceptional deal that has been months in the making. We've had our pants down, unexpectedly lost a loan player and panicked to pay a fee for a replacement who was a free agent weeks ago.

    Nowt wrong with a bit of humility, but the PR drive overrules it.

    Welcome Callum. Big step up from League One, good luck kid.

    Just reversing the 'Ludewig and Ritzmaier' go and then Struber leaves, I wonder if this is the reverse and 'Brittain comes and is followed by Tisdale as manager.' Just an (improbable) thought, but it might have been the persuasion Brittain needed.

    Look forward to seeing him in action. My concerns are that he doesn't sound as if he was a stand out performer in league 1 or the best in his position at his previous club. We released a right back who was a stand out performer in that league as well as been in the team of the season. Leftback, CM and striker now then.

    Think loko will not be far off. Still don’t understand whose decision it was to release Ludwig though. If we were looking at and following the lad. Ludwig probably removed that need when he came back.
    Don’t forget Struber also left him out of the last game. ?
    Can only guess they want our own players to develop. And that ain’t gonna happen with a loanee in place. No value in it. Taking a chance we’ll be ok in that position. Who knows.?
    But Hope we can get a good premier league striker who’s down the pecking order on loan if we can’t buy one.

    Keep away from the BBS young man. A much bigger basket case. If you’re not in the National team by Xmas. Get ready. :) Take advice from Williams and Anderson steer clear. If they have a couple of bad games It’ll be back to normal.
    Welcome by the way. Hope you have a pleasant experience. If all fails. I notice you were born in Bedford. Lots of our lads ready to welcome you to Luton. :)

    I wish him all the best, but to me he looks like a squad signing. We now have 3 full backs, one who has been used on both sides. This now gives us cover in the case of 1 injury (more) or suspension up till Jan. Don't forget we still have Toby Sibbick, can he be recalled in Jan?

    Confused tbh. Think I’ve read 2 different quotes. Season long loan but can be recalled in January. Other saying they have an option to buy. ?

    I don't buy this "We released Ludewig because he was suddenly crap" line. I think Ludewig was here because Struber was, and as soon as Struber left Red Bull pulled the plug.

    What's the word on the street regarding the 'undisclosed' fee?

    It looks like there's been a bit of a power struggle at the club over transfers since Brentford, Take Whiteman, the club as been in for him for months with at least two reported offers.. then Struber at the presser, when asked said, he'd stick hit in the U23s

    It6s one club that no one will be bothered about going under, other than obviously the staff. Should never have been allowed to happen in the first place.
