With all the attention garnered by Ryan Reynolds and Wrexham being promoted from non-League football to League Two, I wonder if anybody is paying attention to or interested in the Luton Town story.
Before the formation of the present Premier League, Luton Town FC was in the English First Division for a decade (1981-1992), then going into a free-fall which found them in the non-League Fifth Division from 2009-2014. They won the National League in 2014, then were promoted from League Two in 2018 and League One in 2019. The finished third in the English Championship (2nd Division) this year and are in a playoff with Coventry to see who will be promoted to the Premier League.
In short, Luton Town F.C. is on the verge of doing what Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney are eventually hoping to do with Wrexham. I think it's a pretty cool story and wanted to know what other soccer fans think about it.
