Luton to face 30-point deduction

Luton will start next season on an unprecedented minus 30 points after a ruling by the Football League.

The Hatters had already been deducted 10 points by the Football Association after being found guilty of misconduct for paying agents via a third party.

And the company which will take over the club has now been told it must accept a further 20-point deduction in order to be allowed in the League.

The penalty came after Luton failed to satisfy the League's insolvency rules.

The combined 30-point deduction is the biggest in Football League history, giving Luton an extraordinarily difficult task in trying to avoid relegation for the third season in a row. Bookmakers have already made them 10-1 on favourites to drop down to the Blue Square Premier League.

But the club is appealing against the FA's 10-point deduction for financial irregularities in regard to its dealings with agents, with the case set to be heard next week.

The 20-point additional penalty related to the club's inability to agree a Company Voluntary Agreement (CVA) to exit administration, with the Football League pointing out that this is the third time in 10 years that Luton have been in such a position.

The Football League board also imposed the condition that Luton Town 2020 (LT2020), the new holding company, must pay any unsecured creditors 16p in the pound and asked it to forego any right of appeal.

LT2020 director Stephen Browne said the club was still being punished for the mistakes of the previous regime in charge at Kenilworth Road.

"We have tried to do everything openly and honestly and we placed our faith in the footballing authorities," said Browne, whose consortium is still in talks with the administrator.

"Obviously the very clear message from both the FA and the Football League is that doing such a thing is a total waste of time.

"Once again the faithful supporters are left high and dry and once again a policy of honesty is not recognised at all by the footballing authorities who claim they want to clean up the game."

But Football League chairman Brian Mawhinney said the board had little option but to take a strong line with Luton.

"The board's primary responsibility is to protect the integrity of their competitions," said Mahwinney.

"This often means making difficult decisions which require balancing the interests of fans, the club's creditors and the other teams in the League.

"We will continue to take that responsibility very seriously."

Browne said that the consortium, fronted by BBC presenter Nick Owen, would not give up despite the points deduction representing a serious setback.

"We will continue the fight by sticking to our principles of openness and honesty," he said.

"People who should, in theory at least, be protecting supporters will not bring us down.

"It's not a laughing matter any more, but even so we will continue to ensure that Luton have a solid and sustainable future, despite what the Football League do to us."

你首先要明白為何有這樣的懲罰

而家唔係fa搞到你咁,係球會既管理自己出左問題

盧頓當年有份投票通過-15分penalty添
只不過-30分叫d球員點踢? 球迷仲會唔會比錢入場?
究竟聯賽會有冇盡力協助盧頓解決問題?
再咁落去唔單只佢地會再度administration,而且仲有更多小型球會步其後塵

其實Luton咁做係反映到好多英超又或者係其他歐洲國會ge問題.
大球會越來越有錢, 但細球會就越來越窮, 最後可能窮到上年蘇超ge Gretna, 最後竟然連十一個球員都無(西甲有大家所知ge利雲特).
Luton用左五年時間係英丙打到去英冠, 仲差d有得打附加賽.
但最後都係失敗左, 之後球會開始發現佢地根本無錢留人.
第二季之後Luton多好人都被逼放走, 但因為本身名氣細又賣唔到人.
之後佢地就開始一個成績差. 球會收入更差ge惡性循環.
上年Luton比銀行賣盤都差d無人要, 幾乎解散.
但無論係新定舊老細面對呢個局面都無能支撐, 所以佢地先會先後用唔同ge方法去令球會有"更理想"ge經運資金,
無論係點都好, 佢地個做法我地大多數人會叫佢做"錯失", 當然有d人會話佢"可惜的傻事"

你話Luton會唔會總有一日東山再起?
我離下題講下, 我之前睇過一名外國網球記者咁寫過:
當年佢曾經係世界第一, 當年佢曾經係大滿貫得主, 當年佢曾經被各大比賽列為前列種子,
但今時今日, 佢唔係世界第一, 佢連d細型比賽都嬴唔到, 唔再係種子球衣, 仲要同一眾新人或者不知ge球手一齊外圍賽先有機會打.
呢種轉變對好多人黎講係悲痛, 難以接受. 好似發左個好夢, 但到頭來其實係一場惡夢.
同樣地某電視都有呢句:
"There's not a day goes by I don't feel regret. Not because I'm in here, or because you think I should. I look back on the way I was then: a young, stupid kid who committed that terrible crime. I want to talk to him. I want to try and talk some sense to him, tell him the way things are. But I can't. That kid's long gone and this old man is all that's left. I got to live with that. Rehabilitated? It's just a bullshit word. So you go on and stamp your form, sonny, and stop wasting my time. Because to tell you the truth, I don't give a shit."

可能呢刻一感慨ge仲有聖人, 狐狸, 列斯等等ge球迷

咁班球員應該唔會認真得去邊...
咁樣同降班無咩分別....

可惜這學生根本連現在這班級也應付不來
本想降佢班了,但新學年又快到
只好留他在這班等下年才降
