Luton Outlaws - Independent Message Board for Luton Town FC

Giles and Nakamba were perfectly reasonable signings at the time. Even Chong, who had his moments in the PL. Brown and Andersen didn’t make any sense even at the time. Feel we could have done better than Kaminski, though he was a decent shot stopper. We made a £13M transfer fee profit on Barkley and Ogbene. Townsend was a decent signing.

Yes I’d have hoped we’d have made more of a profit too, but ultimately we didn’t risk that much in fees (in PL terms) compared to other promoted teams to sign young, high potential, high quality players. So the rewards weren’t likely to be that high either. It was low risk, low reward approach from a club that wasn’t set up to spend the money well and shop in the new markets now available to us.
