Bobfoc Posted August 2, 2019 Report Share Posted August 2, 2019 Luton are one heck of a whirlwind club. They've gone from the second tier to non-league and back again in under 25 years. That includes three Play-Off defeats in the National League, one in League Two, a Football League Trophy victory and a win against Premier League opposition in the FA Cup.

Admin Lineker Posted August 3, 2019 Admin Report Share Posted August 3, 2019 Bury's second game has been postponed: Crisis club Bury have had their second fixture of the new season suspended, prompting another furious response from their chairman. The English Football League (EFL) made the decision to call off next weekend's League One match at Accrington after concluding the club had not provided sufficient proof that they have the necessary finances in place. On hearing of the decision, which followed Monday's postponement of their opening-day fixture against MK Dons, Bury chairman Steven Dale branded the EFL "the destroyer of clubs". Dale claims Bury have complied with everything the EFL asked of them, but that the governing body said it wanted to "substantiate some figures". In a lengthy statement on the club's website, Dale said: "I today have seen the biggest injustice I have ever seen from this alleged body there to help clubs, 'the EFL'. He added: "Why did they not wait till Monday to again postpone our fixture if something was missing? "We have the weekend to get any information to them, but no, once again they prove they are clearly 'the destroyer of clubs' where malice and vindictive actions take precedence over the whole premise of the EFL to help clubs." No one from the EFL was available for comment when contacted by PA late on Friday. In its earlier statement, the governing body said: "The EFL board has today received an update of the position in respect of ongoing matters at Bury FC. "Following a lengthy discussion the board agreed that progress had been made with regard to the outstanding evidence requested by the League. "However, the information provided is still not enough to demonstrate that the club has the ability to immediately settle all football debts, meet the obligations to unsecured creditors and ensure the club has the appropriate financial resources for the 2019/20 season. "As a result the board has regrettably determined that Bury's League One fixture away at Accrington Stanley, scheduled to take place on Saturday August 10 2019, will be suspended under the provision of EFL Regulation 28.2. "In accordance with EFL regulations Accrington Stanley were consulted on the matter prior to the decision being finalised. "The EFL acknowledges this remains a difficult and challenging period for the club, their players and supporters, and will continue to work with the ownership at Bury FC as it looks to resolve all outstanding matters." Bury have already been issued with a 12-point penalty after entering a company voluntary agreement earlier this month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MDK Posted August 3, 2019 Report Share Posted August 3, 2019 By all accounts it was a fitting send off for the gaffer. His final signing Josh Wright in his second spell at the club, who was previously managed by Justin at Gillingham, scored the games only goal and celebrated by pointing at the heavens and holding up a shirt with the gaffers name on it. The Cheltenham fans raised money for a massive banner with the words "He made you dream again" printed on it with a picture of Edinburgh in the middle, really nice touch from them. And it ruined @9 to 5's acca so that is a nice bonus. COME ON YOU O'S! 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baddar Posted August 5, 2019 Report Share Posted August 5, 2019 Really good finish by Lawrence after an Elphick fuck up, 1-0 Derby. Make that 2, and his second was even better. Now it's 1-2 after a Huddersfield pen. Really good game this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
