Which is a great advert for the English football pyramid. Two teams who were at the top 35 40 years ago and have been right down to the bottom and in one case out are now back fighting it to make it back. Work, plan, develop and despite the money sloshing around anyone can do it. I love it 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh no I love it too, just saying it’s wild. Both have been much lower than even we have over the last 20 years Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fudge27 Posted May 18, 2023 Share Posted May 18, 2023 Amazing, Luton since winning the conference have been consistently remarkable. I'll be there at Wembley in there end, but fear for them if they go up. Coventry similarly, the fall to the 4th tier then back up again, both teams hardly littered with big names. Youthful and full of running Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regardless of results they’ll have an amazing season in the premier league if they go up, and if they go down they’ll get their parachute payments Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fudge27 Posted May 18, 2023 Share Posted May 18, 2023 They will and generally are well run, but losing every week, massively inflated contracts and all the expense of the behind the scenes things. If we ever go up I hope we are smart enough to invest the money in state of the art facilities rather than spaffing it all on a couple of players Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coventry were in the top flight for 34 consecutive seasons from 1967 (getting promoted under Jimmy Hill) to 2001. Only I think Arsenal, Everton and Liverpool were in the top flight longer when they got relegated. Think Mark Robins is a good manager. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes Luton had a lot of financial problems around 15 years ago which ended with them in the national league. So their fans have indeed suffered a lot too. And yep, SWFC easily the biggest underachiever of clubs our size in the last 20 years. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
