See Ivan Toney has cam out said has gambling addiction and was placing bets against Newcastle in games he wasn't involved in.  You be fairly annoyed if you knew one of your own was backing against you.  I recall listening to Niall McNamee before and whenever he raised issue with his addiction the counsellor told asked if he ever betted against self and he was annoyed with the comment but was told it was only a matter of time before he did this.  Be interesting to know how the FA became aware of the goings on with Toney.  Was thinking he could possibly have been a cheaper option that Kane/Osimhen for Man Utd but the fact hes banned to January probably rules that out.

Little Luton into the Premier League via a sudden death penalty shootout. Will their pitch be big enough for the Premier league?

Toney never bet against himself. The bets against Newcastle were not allowed, but still regarded at the lower end of the scale as his bets had no impact on the result. The bets that got the long ban were the ones on matches he was playing - all such bets being on himself to score.
Seems quite a harsh ban, especially as so much gambling promotion and adverts in the premier league.

Luton  back in the big time. I remember  collecting  the Panini stickers  back in the day when they  had the  likes of Mal Donaghy , Big mick harford, one of the Steins, and another  big fella with the headband (name escapes me). Ah, Simpler times.

Is it still Kenilworth Road? Is it still an artificial surface ?

I suppose it's the Monaghan in me but usually I'm an avid  follower of the last round of the EPL season, those games affecting who gets relegated. It's popcorn munching  time. This year it hardly registered a blip in among a classic weekend of televised GAA sport.
