Well done to Luton Town who brought some sunshine alongside their incredible run of success from non league to the Premiership.

Not that long ago that we were playing them in EFL1 for the bragging rights of 'our Eric'..... :)

Just goes to show that with some investment from the right people what can be achieved.... ;)

Could we one date follow in their footsteps.... :?: :?: :?:

Eric's glasses will be misty this morning after a few tears of joy.

:) :) :)

Your amazing RR! A few short weeks ago we were doomed with Derek at the helm and now you think there is the slightest possibility that we could ever get anywhere near the Premier League?

Luton have done it...why not OUR club.....never say never.... :D

Some would think it a crime to admit that they got it wrong....I'm big enough to say that I got it wrong about DA. As others have posted he's the one manager who can bring the good times back to our club... in spite of our current financially position......:evil:

EFL2 technically - an incredible achievement by Luton as they were Non League for a time also of course not that long ago.

"Investment" has probably helped but by the same token they've constantly attracted massive crowds of 8-9k.
