    When the boss a Luton Town fan is relishing Championship football next season when two seasons ago he was wishing me good luck for the League 1 Wembley Play Off Final ! Luton were two leagues below us. Now they are two leagues above us !. Now that's how rubbish we are !

    Yes but they didn't have a dick in charge of them, and maybe a lesson to be learnt, help your manager when he request it rather than sacking him the first poor run he has.

    Until this thread I don't think anyone had really noticed how shite we are. Thanks for clarifying it for us.

    I like to look at it in a different way.

    That is how good Luton are and the fact that not that long ago they were playing non league football means that it is something we can do. A mix of good luck, good management and good support.

    Yes they did have a 'dick' in charge for a long time but they came back from it. You'd think we were the only team that anything ever went wrong for. Too many Glory Hunting Bastards in our ranks me thinks.

    Luton have a football identity on and off the pitch.

    Bradford City don't and that's why we find ourselves wondering.

    Attacking football, new stadium- plans for the future mate.

    Bradford City is a nothing Club now really. That's the truth of it. Fans with low expectations because theyre getting cheap season tickets and lack ambition. Just happy to full their time on a Saturday.

    We had cheap tickets in the PL and ever since. Your assertions don't stack up at all.

    For you that's given up on the club.

    We don't own the stadium, football is shi&e and a good following due to cheapness

    Nothing in comparison to the one and only Edin Rahic, who had the arrogance to believe he could tell/help on the football side of the club.
    Think we all like the glory of our team doing well don't we.

    I think it shows that despite a few terrible seasons, then clubs have the capacity to bounce back.

    If you add into the mix Lincoln City’s promotion, and Mansfield Town and Tranmere rovers, all clubs that have been in the fifth tier of Football, then it shows that teams can come back from being ‘rubbish’.

    Not in the fifth tier, but having been relegated from League One in 2018, the Bury and MK Dons are also in with a good chance of promotion.

    So yes we may well be ‘rubbish’ this season but there is always the potential to come good.

    If you have a plan and a strategy with a owner that's willing to back the club then yes for sure.
