Luton Town – Poppy Shirts, Teden Mengi
Luton Town – Poppy Shirts, Teden Mengi

Some bits and bobs to mull over.

On Saturday, against Forest Green Rovers, the Remembrance Day event, held before kick-off, was impeccably observed.

Everyone who took place deserves credit for observing the silence and playing their part.

We, in my opinion, should never forget those who gave their lives, in numerous countries around the world, to allow us to remain a free nation.

On Saturday, the squad wore shirts embossed with a poppy and very smart they looked.

Well, if you didn’t already know, and as stated on – Facebook – those very shirts are available for auction, which as I understand, is normally the case, with the funds raised going to deserving causes.

But I would, as is my prerogative, have a bitch to air.

Is having an auction the right thing to be done?

To me, it simply allows, the richest among our support, to claim them.

Would it not be better to split the shirts?

Let the rich among us fight to own a match-worn signed shirt, but hold some back for a raffle whereby minions, like me, could purchase a ticket in the hope they may well be lucky in the subsequent draw and thereby own a prized possession.

 How about it folks, am I right?

Also, staying on the subject of Saturday, and the 1st round FA Cup tie against Forest Geen Rovers, our centre-back, Teden Mengi, was conspicuous by his absence.

Just recently, after recovering from injury, Teden had been on the bench, but on Saturday, he was not included in the 18-man match day squad.

Has he picked up, in training, another injury?

Is he about to sever ties with Luton Town Football Club never to pull on our shirt again?

If anyone were to enlighten both myself and the readership, we would be grateful.
