Would be comfortable in mid table without the penalty. Shame as remember them in play off zone of the championship few years ago when Newell was in charge. Link to comment
E-P-K Posted April 14, 2009 Share Posted April 14, 2009 10 points for breaking rules regarding payments to agents (which happened in 2005-6 I think) 15 points for failing to agree a CVA with creditors and thus breaking league rules on insolvency. And the other 5 points was to do with administarion. Link to comment
Dandyjam Posted April 14, 2009 Share Posted April 14, 2009 They were always going to be f**ked from day one starting on minus 30 points. They showed by winning the JP Trophy they can mix it with teams in a league above them. I think they'll bounce straight back to League Two if they can keep the majority of their squad.

OneZanderDiamond Posted April 14, 2009 Share Posted April 14, 2009 My mates are Luton fans and were down for the final last week. The FA have completely screwed them over but with the new chairman in charge hopefully they will come straight back Link to comment
florin_raducioiu Posted April 14, 2009 Share Posted April 14, 2009 Must say I've had a soft spot for Luton since they got that massive points deduction. Shame they couldn't have survived but was happy for them winning the JP Trophy. Was a belter of a game in fact Link to comment
