    That's all fair comment. Although with Warnock being a fire fighter, any team in trouble would be foolish not to employ him if he's available. It just happened that Luton weren't struggling, and Colin isn't likely to take on any more permanent roles.

    Didn’t get his move to Millwall in January and threw his toys out of the pram. Was a shame for him to end a successful time with us in that way.

    losing Murphy played a big part in our downfall too, especially when Conway thought he could do his job

    Can't disagree with any of that apart from I reckon there would be a championship club that'd take him on loan.
    He's turned into a modern day Mike Sheron, fondly remembered for yesteryear.

    Says on tv that as it stands Luton wont be allowed in prem if they win final. The ground isnt good enough. Needs 10-15 million to spend on it to make it better and bigger and would only have 3months to complete the work

    I disagree with that. There should be a year's grace.

    Why don't NO have Kenilworth road and they have their stadium, like a house swap for a year!

    For the premier it is. Luton dont have the right facilities. For media. TV etc. That's the issue. I must assume Bournemouth have. Not that I agree with it. It's not about what the fans want. :confused:
    The chairman says they will definitely not ground share. So hope's to have the improvements needed within the 3 month timescale.

    MK Dons and Watford within half hour if they need to ground share. Pete Wrinklyman will love that.

    How much bigger do they need to make it - capacity only 1000 less than Bournemouth
    and when does it need to be done by? cant be 3 months as thats after the season starts
    Could be a bit unfair if they cant go up and get 150 million because there is no time to get ground inprovements costing 1/10th of that done

    Pretty sure they can buy themselves and extra month or so by requesting away fixtures at the start of the season.

    MK Dons have a premiership standard ground - Id have thought that was the obvious choice as a short term fix

    Have Coventry got a ground for next season ?

    The stand on one side of the ground is basically a row of corporate boxes.
    The plan is to redevelop this to meet media/broadcasting standards.
    New floodlights will also be needed.

    It's a lot worse, Bournemouth is small but modern.
