Re: Luton = Our Short Term Aspiration

No. I think Luton is what some of our fans want... To have a good season where everything clicks, get promoted and then have some fun in the Premiership before inevitably returning to the Championship in a couple of years. It's a nice short-term aspiration to have.

The owners are looking well beyond what Luton are doing. They've made some mistakes (and they'll likely make more along the way) but they aren't focused on short-term aspirations. They're focused on the medium and long term which is for the club to belong in the Premiership permanently.

Obviously after years and years of utter shite, asking the fans to be patient is a tough sell and when we were 6th in the table, it was the absolute worst time to make big changes... Hopefully they'll get back on track soon. The one big positive of this is that if things don't work out with Rooney, the next guy will be coming in under massively different circumstances and he'll pick up a lot of support from fans simply by not being Wayne Rooney.

Am I over-thinking things or could this be Cook's ruse? Appoint Rooney then bun him off and win plaudits from fans for "listening"?
