Something happened to make him change his mind, so someone else was involved. As he appears to be pretty much on his own in the running and funding of the club, who could that have been?
Might even have been a personal issue, or something else completely unconnected with the Club. A health scare, a relationship issue. We'll probably never know - not that we need to anyway. Bottom line is he's covered the Club's losses for several years. Very grateful to him for that. |

Martin King is the founder and managing director of the Luton based corporate entertainment booking agency, Eminence but is better known for the scandals that occurred during his tenure as director of Luton Town. King was a director of Luton Town from July 2005 until March 2007, when he resigned following the sacking of Mike Newell.[1] King called Newell's sacking undemocratic, and suggested that only two board members were actually present at the sacking[2] although that's not believed to be the sole reason behind his departure.[1]
King has since revealed that £3,700,000 is currently unaccounted for at the club,[3] and that Newell was sacked for a letter he sent to the board of directors questioning certain the ongoings at the club. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Martin_King_(Eminence) |

See what you mean now.
Sam Morshead @SamMorshead_SA
Martin King, who the Adver understands will be one of the faces of the new consortium at Town, is believed to be here today #stfcadver
Also this from Sam.

Just spent 15 minutes in the Legends Lounge with Jed McCrory talking to fans. Can't help but be impressed by his passion for the game.

Can't say all these Luton connections are particularly inspiring. Seems to have been involved, like Newell etc., during a period when they were in freefall.
But I know...open mind etc.
