You joking Sonic, little ol' Luton don't have the money to fight so I should imagine the FL will "make an example of them", just tlike they did with that other little unimportant club in 1990.

Apparently the accusations are against 2 directors as well, high standing member of the club heirarchy, I think they will be made an example of as well.

It all stems from Newells comments about Football Agents bungs a few months back apprently, doesnt sound good for them.

When I read stuff like this about happenings at other clubs,  I get a chill feeling at teh thought of the FL investigators opening cupboards  at the CG and dry and dessicated bones tumbling out, like  an earthquake in a Cambodian ossuary.

Me too. Maybe we are squeeky clean. But you can bet if Luton are proven guilty here that there will be other clubs that have done the same. And as a fan and with our past you always fear the worst.
