This is a game that fails to get the taste buds going. This sold out early last season. We have 1,032 tickets for the game on Saturday and amazingly we still have not sold out . I did go with a group of mates last season; it was a 2nd visit for me and a first for the four of them. It is not a stadium I would want to visit again.
For a number of years Luton have plans to move away from Kenilworth Road to a new stadium. In all honesty their existing stadium should have been condemned years ago. Some say the ground has atmosphere but if you put 10,000 people in a group of adjoining sheds you would also have an atmosphere of sorts. It reminded me of going to Southend at the start of the 2017/18 season and you smell your way to the ground rather than ask directions such was the stench of stale urine; indeed ask anyone in the vicinity of Luton Town and I doubt they would understand English - it is a melting pot of many many cultures and an area where the 5 of us felt distinctly unsafe last season. Every spare piece of land, even front ‘gardens’ where strewn with litter, fly tipping and human waste. In short it reminded me of a visit I made to Beirut in the mid 1980’s.
So what exactly does Luton offer? Why would you ever visit Luton?
1. To escape via Luton Airport
2. To observe what the UK will become in the next 20/30 years
3. To complete the 92 football league grounds
What is Luton famous for?
1. The first flush toilet in the World (abandoned after 6 months)
2. The town has refused to utilise landfill anymore and instead encourages residents to dump all rubbish in a neighbours front garden
3. Tommy ‘The Thug’ Robinson .
Enough of grotty Luton……
I have decided to take myself away to the sunny East Coast of Scotland for a few days and see my old mate Wee ‘Prince’ Harry. Harry is a good Royalist, albeit living in California for much of the year, and went out of his way to queue by the side of the road to see the Queen leave Balmoral for Edinburgh Airport. Sadly he did not get to see to much apart from up a few kilts and skirts.
WEE ‘DIRTY PRINCE’ HARRY
Instead of going to Luton I have arranged for our Carol to attend instead. She was not keen to stand with the Rovers fans and witness acts of debauchery and sin and I have therefore sorted her a ticket by the Directors Box on the basis she goes incognito in case she attracts attention. Carol has decided to go in fatigues in the hope of not being outed as a Rovers fan. She has promised to keep me updated by text with every x being a goal to Rovers. Every means we have shipped a goal and if she sends me a text with it means ‘eat me’.
CAROL IS READY FOR LUTON
Those of you going to Luton need to be aware. Please take your Eastern European multi-language phrase book, and take plastic overshoes to protect from the shit in the streets all around the ground.
AVAILABLE IN BLUE FROM THE ROVERSTORE
As you can see I really do not have a single good word about Luton. There was some expectation that the game may be postponed due to Bedfordshire Police having to attend events in London; this will not happen as it is a low category policing game which instead will be managed by the famous Luton stewards.
WELCOME TO LUTON TOWN - AND THEIR STEWARD ‘PATSY’ O’REILLY
INSIDE THE FAMOUS LUTON STADIUM AND THEIR OTHER STEWARD ‘SLIPPY’ O’SHAUNESSEY
Back to the game I am going for a 3-0 to the rampant Rovers whereas our Carol reckons Rovers will get a pair.
OUR CAROL PREDICTS A ROVERS VICTORY
