The Premier League's Ultimate Underdogs

Ten years ago, Luton Town were a non-league football club. Now they are in the Premier League.
That's despite having by far the lowest budget, revenue, and wage bill in the division, and the smallest stadium to have ever hosted Premier League football.
So in this video, HITC Sevens takes a closer look at the Premier League's ultimate underdogs, how Rob Edwards has prepared his team for life in the top flight since winning the Championship play-off final, Luton's summer transfer business, and whether the Hatters - written off by everyone as certainties to be relegated - could surprise a few teams this season.

Thanks dear Alfie. As a Hatter for all my now 64 years, I much appreciated this and the previous video on Luton. Premier quality production and analysis indeed from you. Such a rollercoaster it's been. This rise is mostly due as you mentioned to the astuteness and shrewdness of the current ownership personified by Gary Sweet, the MD. The whole club is so well run from top to bottom by some wonderful people. The manager himself Rob Edwards is such tremendous guy, a perfect fit for us. Well done again.

I remember going to Plough Lane at the height of the crazy gang (Wimbledon), and that stadium had a really unique atmosphere despite being so small. The beauty of English football are stories like the Dons and Luton and, If Luton can make teams uncomfortable and make their home ground a nightmare for visiting team, they might be a surprise package this season! Either way, lovely to have the football season back!!

These are strange days! I grew up in Dunstable, in a Hatters household, though I was lured away by Gazza's exploits in N17 around the middle of 1988. This did not go over well lol... Each term, me Dad would take me and get me my LT kit bag for school. However, in the Summer prior to my first year of middle school, I dropped the bombshell in the shop that "I don't want that one anymore, I want this one..." clutching a Spurs bag. My Dad didn't say a word, but just looked at me, then the bag, then off into space. He bought it me in total silence, we drove home in silence. In fact he didn't speak to me for about a month after that...If only he was still around, we could bury the hatchet and watch Luton in the Prem together.

The ultimate underdogs was Wimbledon from non league in the late 70s and in the top flight within a decade where they remained for 14 seasons before finally suffering relegation during the 1999/2000 season all while being homeless season not to mention their famous victory over red hot favourites Liverpool in the 1988 FA Cup final of that's a true underdog story imo

I imagine the difference between Wimbledon in the 70s and Luton in 2023 is the gap between non-league and the top flight in 1970 being orders of magnitude smaller than the gap between the Championship and the Premier League in 2023, not to even mention that between non-league and the Premier League.

nah, there's a chance. Huddersfield did somehow stay up in their first season. Just need some luck along the way and some team expected to do decent to have a really bad season. But no doubt everyone knows they will probably go down but... it's definitely not a foregone conclusion yet. Burnley also played direct football with a small budget and they stuck around for a while thanks to their high spirit and manager. No reason why Luton can't do the same.

[@Eibarwoman]

@@maciejbala477 And within La Liga, there was SD Eibar which had a similar pay ratio in year 1 of promotion in the mid-2010s to the big 2 to Luton. Although with the field of talent being a bit more even over there, Eibar even climbed into the midtable in subsequent seasons before producing a 20th place 29 point 2020-21 season. Edit: 29 points is 10th worst season in 20 team format of La Liga which is well, horrid. And the means of how Eibar stayed up in year 1 involved some financial issues at Elche which prior to being penalized was 13th in the table. Everton is kind of really shady in the FFP department at all times.

[@theblithespirit]

Wow how long did it take you to work that one out? Come and collect your medal Einstein...

[@Eibarwoman]

They could stay up, but it would require a lot of things to go right for Luton and really wrong for two of either Burnley, Wolves, or Everton to get to safety. Sheffield United is probably the only team I could assume is on par or worse than them given they've sold two of their better players to Marseille and Burnley.

[@user-s1o3nr532]

Imo Luton should stay at Kennilworth Road and use that as an advantage. Reason being that even having a new stadium at Power Court (if it ever happens), they're still going to be financial underdogs in PL terms - so not a massive advantage relative to investment while losing what makes them unique.

[@DonniKennedy]

Power Court is about building future sustainablility for the club. Building it with no debt and more seats means more capacity for income which will (with any hope) grow the club

[@DonniKennedy]

Power Court is also deliberately designed to mimic the asymmetrical stands and close quarters of the Kenny

Luton Town have spent the last fifteen years learning how to do more with less and have gotten very skilled at that. This could give them a further unexpected advantage the rest of the Premier League won't anticipate, particularly as the go-to solution for the clubs in the top-flite these days is simply to throw yachtloads of money at whatever problem comes up, regardless of whether it actually accomplishes anything or not.

[@Jonathan2342]

Imo if Luton can get a 40+ million player sale from one of their youngsters in January (if they can prove themselves) they could use that money to strengthen their squad in order to make a second half push to avoid relegation. Thought their game today was unfortunate as it was much closer than the score dictated.

This is one of the interesting clubs when it comes to EPL money and (sorry I’m writing them off) subsequent relegation parachute payments. Would it be financially a very good idea longer term to not spend on staying in the Prem and just spend nothing much, say, just enough to get you in the top 2 of the Championship or even the playoffs (maybe hold off until 2025/26 for ambitious spending) so they’ll have made a load of money from just being in the Prem and the said parachute payments putting them in a better position in 2 seasons time to actually plan for staying in the Prem long term by spending some of the money to get out of the championship and using the new Prem income + the old prem income to get players in that will keep them there. Or, as I suspect, would too much of that be lost to tax? Any accountants that know about how football income works, I’d love to hear what your thoughts are. Although I suspect making the announcement of “dear fans, there’s a likelihood we are going to get thrashed every week, but it’s all for the greater good because we have a long term plan” might not be acceptable to the fans, although it’s pretty much the reality. Even if I would love to see them stay up.
