Thanks. Always good to hear an impartial view.
Don't think Luton are so 'massive' though. They're not much bigger than us and we're not a very big club!


Quoted from Devonmatt


Can't have Stockport at all.  I haven't looked at what they have done over the summer, and yes I know they have Hamman as manager now (never been more than a coach as I understand it) but they were in an awful state throughout last season and relied on loans to even make their team competitive (which it wasn't).  Can Stockport really rebuild from that position to have a realistic chance?  I just can't see it.


Considering where they've spent most of the past 10-20 years, I'd argue they're a big fish in the division. Three consecutive relegations have obviously mullered them but prior to that and the financial problems that were the cause, they were a relatively solid if unspectacular Championship club. There's no doubt that they, along with yourselves, are among the bigger clubs in the BSP.

As I've said, Stockport are hard to back from my point of view. Hammann has cut his teeth in the FL but under a world-renowned manager, a considerable budget and quality players at our place. Moving to Stockport will be like raising the difficulty level on and taking all the cheats off Football Manager. They're skint, were absolutely abysmal last season and are struggling to survive. They could even be another Chester City at the rate they're going. From a neutral's perspective though, big name coach and good following (I remember them coming to our place in League One and their support was top notch) they might look like decent things.
