ADMINISTRATIVE RECEIVER WARD STATES CLUB SHOULD BE WITH NEW OWNERS NEXT WEEK

Barry Ward, the administrative receiver currently in charge of Luton Town Football Club, has today (Saturday) stated that the final requirements of the Football League have been satisfied and that the new owners should be in charge of the club by early next week.

This news, coupled with the Hatters’ 3-2 home victory over Bristol City, where Keith Keane scored a dramatic winner three minutes into injury-time – after Bristol City had equalised in injury-time themselves – will be a major boost to Luton Town fans.
