You are, probably, all aware that ‘2020’ are on the verge of completing their takeover of LTFC. They have done an amazing job to put the consortium together from scratch and get as far as they have in just five months. They are in the process of providing the Football League with many details about the long term funding of the club that will enable the Golden Share to be returned to us. This share is essentially the official permission for us to compete in the Football League and to trade in the transfer market.
Gary Sweet and Stephen Browne of LTFC2020 were both TiL Board members at the time David Pinkney put the club into administration, so we have always been kept in the loop on the progress of the bid and, even though they have now stepped down from the TiL Board to concentrate on being the new custodians of the club (also enabling TiL to remain independent), we will continue to work very closely with them. Do keep an eye on the 2020 website at http://www.2020mission.com as it will go live soon. You will
be able to register your details so they can keep you updated.
Trust in Luton was born out of necessity when the club was in the hands of John Gurney in 2003 and many members past and present played a key role in ensuring that the club survived and at the same
time negotiated a ten per cent shareholding with the then new owners, Jayten Stadium Ltd. With the ensuing battle with them it seems that we have been forever at odds with the Club’s owners! That is not, however, our primary aim, and we look forward to supporting LTFC on a number of issues and representing the broad fan base. For anyone wishing to find out more about our objectives and history please visit our website at http://www.trustinluton.org.
Whilst we are all very disappointed to be back in League 2 next year, there are many reasons to be optimistic but we must also be realistic that there are a number of issues still to be overcome.
