Luton Relegated Celebration Thread

Can but hope.

Championship Table and Standings - Football - BBC Sport You have to scroll right down to see them. They are right in the mire.

¡¡WONDERFUL!!

 

Hopefully.

 

Fingers crossed. Away at Sunderland next then @ their hole for Sheff Utd. Not the easiest.

 

Scum ain't won a game in 2025.

 

If Sunderland play like that again, I can see Luton winning. Don't see it v Sheffield United though.

 

No they won't. Nailed on 3 points at our place will help them.

 

Why do you think they are nailed on to win ?

 

Absolutely - they haven't had the new manager bounce. Alfie Doughty has come out and said there is "no chance they will be relegated". Complacency when you're doing absolutely **** is how Sunderland achieved consecutive relegations.

 

Us looking down at them from our ivory tower of one victory in 2025

 

Because of what happened at their place. Their players wanted to beat us so badly, for our cowards it's was and always will be just another game.

 

I was there , I witnessed the shambles .

But it’s just one game , I can’t see the logic in thinking that we are guaranteed to lose the next one because if one bad performance . If Luton were so dangerous they wouldn’t be in the relegation zone .

Find it bizarre the plague of almost hysterical negativity on here sometimes .

 

You call it negativity I call it reality. You completely ignored the fact that the scum can get themselves up for a local derby and we cannot.
Why?
Because our players are c***s.

 

No it’s fun while it lasts but they won’t go down. Hope they don't save themselves on the last day with a Pleat vs Citeh celebration.

 

Its 50/50 I would say. They have lost more than half their games, they have the 2nd worst goal difference in the league and have only taken 2 points from the last 18 on offer - only Derby have worse form. They have some tough games coming up but also have to play the teams around them so its still in their hands unfortunately. The teams above them are showing some fight and the 16 games of the season left will start disappearing quickly.

 

100% doomed.

Going down in last place, then another relegation next season.

I can see them struggling along in the 4th for a couple of seasons, the cancellation of the stadium of scum, but then the inevitable relegation back into the non-leagues.

I would predict them being wound up and disbanded somewhere around 2035, after a 0-4 home defeat to Gresley Miners Welfare in a crucial United Counties League relegation decider.

There would be maybe a little paragraph buried somewhere in one or two of the papers.with headlines like "The Club That Died of Shame".

 

What happens to their parashoot payments if they go down again? Do they still get them as usual?

 

Yes, but having only been in the top level for a single season they only get parachute payments for 2 seasons.

 

Yes, plus the parachute payment from Championship to League 1.

 

Double parachute payments?... Now I see what they're up to.

 

God my spelling is bad

 

Whilst this isn't an exact science that mob in Beds have a tricky looking run in and the goal difference table has them in the correct position. Fingers crossed !

 

The new manager has had a fantastic start, he's really turning their fortunes around.

 

I am going to back Luton to win at Sunderland. That should ensure they don’t win.

 

Wise words !!

 

5 out of the bottom 6 clubs in the Championship are ex premier league clubs, although Luton is the only recent one!

 

They will probably get out of it but what a season it would be if they went down!

 

The last time we played them at home we won 4-0

 

That got me thinking...
It turns out 30 of the 72 league clubs have played in the Premier League at some time.

 

Yep. I was explaining to my son that when I was at university Oldham were a premier league team and cup powerhouse! Think those were the Moralee years.

 

We’re awful, and only 3 points off the play off places. This league has no quality, and it would take something magical for them not to survive.

 

Was that the one where their squad had a sickness bug? The point I'm trying, (and failing), to make with a few of you on this thread is that our current squad doesn't have the bo**ocks to get themselves up for a local derby, whereas scums squad does. I genuinely hope I'm wrong but I'm not.

 

Now in the Nationwide league, the only non-league club that have been in the Premier League

 

...and your punctuation.

 

They will comfortably stay up, unfortunately. They made better signings in the window than we did, albeit its not that difficult.
