https://www.lutontown.co.uk/news/2019/july/simon-sluga/ Luton Town have signed a keeper for their biggest ever transfer fee, smashing a record going back to 1989 when they signed Lars Elstrup. This massive fee, which has smashed their record transfer fee is......wait for it...…. ****************** Spoiler: transfer record €1.5m!!….which in today's exchange rate comes to a whopping £1.35m ******************
Yes, we hate L*t*n but you mocking their transfer spending makes you look like one of those Man U / Arsenal / Chelsea / Spurs / Everton / Liverpoo l tvvats who spout 5h1t on Twitter. I’d like to think, we Watford fans are better than that
Nah…...any opportunity to take the p1ss out of Luton is fine, plus this is genuinely funny. Just underlines how utterly irrelevant they have been for the past 30 years.
quite an achievement to get to the Championship without splashing out. Compare us against other teams in the old 4th and 3rd divisions in our golden era under SEJ and GT
Isn’t £1 million for Lars Elstrup back then the equivalent of £30 million for Sarr now? Not sure historical transfer records are really comparable.
Yes. Late decision to switch from Simmo and didn't deduct an "s" ! I'd always assumed Simmo looked better with two "s"s.
Perry Suckling from Palarse ? What did we pay for Foster ? Presumably him, with Espen Baardsen prior to that ?
Yes our record GK fee for many years was spent on a keeper so bad that he'd lost his place in the team and retired from football within 12 months.
Well we did spend 3.5 million on Ellington once too - in the past when we come to spending big it hasn't gone well!
