The parallels are quite striking...
Both did perhaps better than expected last season, followed by relegation this season (I know it's not confirmed yet for Leeds, but being realistic...)
As for our respective seasons? I think if either club's story had been written for Dream Team, the writer would've been asked what the hell he was playing at and told to tone it down.
Luton started well, but flopped. Leeds went the opposite way round, but to no avail.
Both got new managers in and had experienced players leave, with new signings sometimes flopping horribly.
Leeds got Luton's ex-captain; Luton got Leeds' ex-manager.
I don't realistically think either of us will be looking at promotion next season either - I rather fear we'll both be left with young, pretty inexperienced squads by the time summer's been and gone, and we'll have to look to build up again.
Hey-ho, here's to the future
