March 7, 2020 Kevin Harper Comments Off on Opinion: Sluga turnaround shows players should not be written off so quickly

Opinion: Enough of this ‘Graeme Jones has lost the dressing room’ rubbish

February 22, 2020 Kevin Harper Comments Off on Opinion: Enough of this ‘Graeme Jones has lost the dressing room’ rubbish

‘Graeme Jones has lost the dressing room’. If I had £1 for every time I have read that quote over the last three to four months, I could probably pay for Newlands’ Park myself, and still have […]

Opinion: Brown, Rea and Hylton have the character to help Hatters pull off a great escape

February 15, 2020 Kevin Harper Comments Off on Opinion: Brown, Rea and Hylton have the character to help Hatters pull off a great escape

Opinion: Get Nathan Jones back? I’d rather have Tom Jones as Luton boss

Opinion: Online outcry over Jones’ tactics and Izzy comment is nonsense
