The Rise and Fall of Luton Town

[Lover Boy]

About the BTB​

This will be a series were I will make up the match results of Luton Town which will lead to promotion and relegation. I will not be biased in any way to Luton and try and keep it as realistic as I can. I will be Starting on 18/2/12 (yesterday) which was a match aganist Tamworth. I will be doing the match reports every day that Luton have a game until the end of the season. During Pre-Season (Hopefully the BTB will still be running by then) the BTB will be a bit dead without matches so I will post the occasional news story like Luton signing a new player or something of that sort. Even if you don't like Football you might like this so please comment and give me feedback. This isn't a wrestling BTB.

Backstory​

In 2005, Luton Town were promoted to the Coca Cola Championship which is the Second Highest division in English Football. Nobody expected this to happen and Luton were truly punching above their weight. The following season, Luton achieved even greater things. They finished 10th in the Championship and were 19 points clear of Relegation. However, the following season The Luton ship was sunk and Luton finished rock bottom of the Championship nine points away from saftey. The next season was their first back in League 1, with the club in dire money troubles it wasn't looking good for Luton. Because of their money troubles they were deducated 10 points and finished rock bottom for the Second season in a row, Because of that they were Relegated to the Football Leagues basement Division. The club were forced to go into Administration so they were deducated 30 points in League 2. Because of this, they finished bottom for the third year in a row and were out of the Football League. A team that finished 10th in the Championship only a few years prior were now going to be in the Conference. For the past two seasons Luton Town have been trying to get back to where they belong but have failed on both occasions going out in the Play Offs. This year they currently sit 3rd in the Blue Square Bet Conference. But only one team can go up Automatically so they will probably have to do it through the Play-Offs seeing as they are 16 Points off Top Spot.

Haven't seen a non wrestling BTB before, so I'm interesting in how this works.

I did one on another forum (I think you know which one) and this is going to be the same setup type as that.

I seem to recall skimming through this on the other site but I don't really remember much about it. If you post, I'll read...and comment. It's just the kind of guy I am.
