Any one else ashamed

[suzyv]

ANy one else ashamed that we refused to offer Luton our part of the gate receipt. I wonder if this is down to the Yanks because I fell we would have done this under Moores.

[sutty]

No.

 

If they hadn't asked for it, it would have been a nice gesture, but we aren't Barnardos

[madaboutlfc]

no as we are in effect under more debt..to reach a situation like lutons is due to mismanagement so not at all

[Rich Gobey]

Luton raised it to fire their players up even more I reckon, knowing we'd almost certainly say no.

f*** 'em, with any luck in 2 minutes they'll be locking the gates and selling the stadium for scrap wood.

[Guest dKing]

Nope.

 

As far as I understand it was down to bad managment.

 

Cheeky Monkeys asking us for it in public .

 

But if where gonna act like Bob Gelgof,

 

Lets go save Kenya United FC while were at it .

[RP]

No.

 

Couldn't give a sh** about Luton.

[Raj]

Ashamed is a strong word to use.

 

I think it would have been a nice gesture for us to do it. Its slightly disappointing but I didnt see the FA offer to part with their 10% of the takings either.

[trowie]

My mates a Mansfield supporter and their club could easily go into liwuidation due to the thieving antics of the Chairman.

If we were playing them under such situations my mate would be up in arms if we let Mansfield have the gate money.

I'm sure there's no correlation between both owners except that the situation is probably brought about by bad management(boardroom level)

So no. we are a business that has to protect our own income or before long we will be in the same position.

[L19red]

not even a little bit.

Its karma for the contemptuous manner they treated away fans when thatchers lapdog was in charge. f*** them, I hope we make them wait until they've been forced to sell all their decent players before we hand over one penny of the gate receipts from the home game as well. Better still give huge pay rises for one game to the stewards/catering staff/st johns etc so all the money goes in expenses and we dont make any profit from the game.

[Kahnee]

We've given the f*****s a replay, what more do they want?

No. I detest Luton and hope they go out of business.

[Gunga Din]

remember when they refused to field a team in the FA Cup against us in the 80's when they said they were snowed in, when in reality they had a shed load of injuries. remember they banned away fans. remember their plastic f***ing pitch. f*** off Luton.

[Case]

Don't we do plenty for clubs such as Wrexham in pre-season?

 

Hell - lets allow all away teams to keep all gate receipts.

 

Then try to re-sign Torben Piechnik. On-loan, natch.

[smithdown]

Luton Town FC didn't reimburse me when they failed to turn up to Anfield for that Cup game 20 years ago so hard lines.

[JRC]

Especially when hundreds of their fans did make it up from Luton by their own steam. Still can't believe they weren't made to forfeit that match. Not that I'm bitter. B*stards.

[Guest JV]

No. f*** them.

Unforgiven

 

W*nkstain of a club

[matty]

There are far more deserving causes in the world.

 

Mitt Romney's presidential campaign, the Paedophile Information Exchange, the Pete Doherty Is Innocent fund, and Amy Wineshop's tab at Mahiki, to name but four.

[Guest Bear]

Weren't they the club that got caught bunging agents and God knows who else?

 

And they want Liverpool to help bail them out? Then when we don't they go public?

 

Pretty sure I know who should feel ashamed.

Spot on. Let's find out where their £14m (ish) in transfer receipts over the last 2/3 years has gone first.

 

I don't want any club to dissappear. Luton, as much as any other, is a significant club in the English Football League. However, it's not up to Premiership clubs to bail out crooks.

[MFletcher]

They put themselves into the situation they're in through bad management.

 

It would have set a precedent anyway, so we had to say no.

[Billy Dane]

Money's been a bit tight for me this year. I'm embarrassed Liverpool haven't given me my season ticket for free. Miserable bastids

[Rimbeux]

Not at all. Why should we give them our money which we desperately need also to help solve their own mess. And there was that scam 20 years ago. Horrible fans also

[johngibo YPC]

They went public before they has asked us
