Luton directors are quizzed by FA

    From the BBC's website...


    "Investigators from the FA have questioned more directors from Luton Town FC over the club's finances.
    Officials from the FA's compliance team spent several hours at Kenilworth Road on Monday afternoon talking to directors and employees.

    Former chairman Bill Tomlins has already admitted breaking the rules regarding payment to agents.

    Investigators are now looking at the possibility that the club may be in breach of two serious rules.

    The FA will not make any statement until the compliance team has finalised its report in relation to a total of eight transfers.

    Mr Tomlins, whose ex-manager Mike Newell made claims about corruption in the game's transfer market, stood down in the wake of the FA inquiry."

    Probably get nothing but a small fine...the FA won't want to deduct even more points on the poor souls.

    So the question is: Was old Mikey-boy trying to get at his directors by opening the bung can of worms, or is he just very stupid?

    Answers on a postcard please.

    Perhaps the main reason why they sacked him.

    Very funny stuff nonetheless, I will certainly be ripping it out of them on my show on Thursday.

    they will feel really sorry for the scummers sadly and probably fined them about 50p (their life savings)

    At least things can't get much worse.

    No ground, no money, relegated.

    Be positive.

    At least you have each other :)

    Hi GBH!

    So, what's next for the Bedfordshire Soap? I thought we were in trouble a couple of years ago, but that was peanuts to what you're going through.

    I actually hope you make it through - the world wouldn't be the same without Luton Town (stinking it up ;) )

    Hahaha

    Believe me, we (as a club) have lived through much worse, whether you are familir with the John Gurney saga not too many years ago, in which the very existance of our club was at a very high risk...

    ...We'll be back ;)

    Cheers
