Hatters CEO claims Luton’s culture has been ‘under attack’ since Premier League relegation
Sweet uses programme notes to discuss tough start to Championship season
Luton Town chief executive Gary Sweet claimed the club’s identity has been ‘under attack’ from within since their relegation from the Premier League last term.
With many expecting, including both players and staff, the Hatters to be right up there fighting for promotion back to the top flight this season after the manner in which they tried to achieve survival, impressing plenty of onlookers as they attempted to mix it with the big boys, those ambitions just haven’t materialised.
A disappointing run of results and performances, particularly on the road, appeared to come to a head just before the international break with a 5-1 drubbing by Middlesbrough, as Town sat just one place above the drop zone, something that no-one would have expected back in August.
