2022/23 Football Season

I'm really excited for this upcoming season, finally get to play against Watford scummers in the M1 derby now that they've been relegated from the Premier League, and if reaching the playoffs in the 2021/2022 season is anything to go by, the only way is up. I feel Luton is a really well run club and has both a manager and players with drive and passion. Our squad last season had been bought with only £1.5 million, around 1% of Fulham's and we still made the playoffs!

Hopefully the new stadium will be complete by the 2024/2025 season - I believe they've started demolition already. It'll be a nice change from Kenilworth Road which although is a classic ground, has a capacity of only 10,000 and is simply really old and has been in continous use since 1905. The new stadium will only be 1 mile away from the soon to be closed Kenilworth Road, and technically closer to Luton's main train station, plus the capacity will be somewhere between 17,500 and 23,000 (with room for expansion).

I doubt we'll go up this season but if we can get some new signings in the summer transfer window I'm confident we can build upon last season's performance.

TIER 1: PREMIER LEAGUE :: 5th August 2022 - 28th May 2023

TIER 2: CHAMPIONSHIP :: 29th July 2022 - 6th May 2023

TIER 3: LEAGUE ONE :: 30th July 2022 - 7th May 2023

TIER 4: LEAGUE TWO :: 30th July 2022 - 7th May 2023

Note: Due to the 2022 World Cup taking place in Qatar in November/December rather than June/July, both the Premier League and Championship leagues will be on hold for 4 weeks during mid-November to (supposedly) the first round of games starting the 10th December 2022.

EFL Championship started yesterday but starts properly today, as does League One and Two. The Premier League is going to start in just under a week.

Thoughts? Opinions? Predictions?

Middlesbrough will continue to disappoint, Newcastle United will spend their way to mediocrity, City will win the prem running away and Haaland will only play about half the season but still win the golden boot. 
 

i hope Derby can make it back to the championship, they did amazingly well considering how many points they had deducted. 

spurs will win the league

Liverpool & Man City duke it out for the title. Interested to see if Man Utd show signs of progress/improvement under ten Hag.

Arsenal will have some clangers, but otherwise look good, but still not quite there/consistent. 

Kane will be asking why he didn't leave Tottenham at the end of this season.

Good opening (home) game against Birmingham City the other day. A 0-0 draw at full time which is a significant improvement on last season when they beat us 5-0 at home. We signed two new players today (Aribim Pebble and John McAtee) - Pebble seems so sweet, humble and motivated. Recruitment did a good job getting him in from Canada.

Decent game against Burnley last week, 1-1 draw against an ex-Premier league team is decent! PNE at home tomorrow who we beat 4-0 home and 3-0 away last season so hopefully a 3 points tucked away there.

Hoping Watford lose their game against Burnley that's going on right now.

Jesus fuck United are absolute fucking dogshit. There’s not enough filth in the English language to explain what an utter shower of shite they have produced in their opening two matches.

I'm less pessimistic now!!! We just need to stay up until the new stadium is built anyways.

Also what on earth is going on in the prem right now?????

What a great weekend. That is all.

Says it all really. (it was a shite penalty but still)

Luton are still shit. 2-2 against Coventry City leaves us in 18th out of 24.
