For legal purposes, everything I'm saying below is just rumour. I will add, though, that it has come from two or three sources that're generally very reliable.
From another source:
And another:
As I'm sure you can imagine, there's a lot of anger among Luton fans about this
A 'Luton boy'? Bullshit.
Makes me laugh that he's trying to claim credit for nurturing Dean Brill too. Is this the same Dean Brill who made his debut years before KB arrived, whose talent all the fans knew better than KB, and who KB tried desperately not to play at all?
What a prize c*nt
Shall we get a few things out in the open about our former manager? And not the normal "he resigned" stuff. Right!
1 Luton asked Liverpool to offer their gate receipts and they said they would think about it. They then confirmed with Guilfoyle that they would be willing to do a deal but when Blackwell tried to "get involved" they blanked him. Blackwell then went out into the press and slated Liverpool for not supporting a club in administration. Liverpool then pulled the offer and Luton lost a significant amount of money - money that 20-20 had to then put up.
2 Blackwell tried to sell two players on the cheap to Sheff U two weeks before he resigned. Co-incedence? Could be, but...
3 Luton received an offer for one of these players at a much higher price just before we sold Coyne. Blackwell turned it down, so we had to sell Coyne. (The said player would have been less of a loss than Coyne and we could have got a loan to replace him). KB then tried to sell the same player to Sheff U at a cut price blaming Guilfoyles "fire-sale" approach. Guilfoyle blocked it and sussedKB.
4 Along with his buddy Ellis, they have been stirring up trouble about old Luton Town within the business. It seems many frinedly agents of Blackie are fully aware of every contract at our club. Over recent weeks Mick's ability to trade has been compromised by the fact that all and sundry know every detail of every player contract. Many players have been tapped up some quoting our friend in Sheffield.
That's just a few of the things that are fact. Others will also come out in due course.

From another source:
Blackwell turned down a £600k offer for Brill. Guilfoyle [the administrator] then sold Coyne out of necessity and because he thought KB preferred that option. Then KB tried to sell Brill to Sheff U for £250k. Three other players were "enquired about" by Sheff U at the same time.
And another:
Indeed Blackwell is understood to have personally recommended United, then managed by Bryan Robson, to Brill when he seemed destined to leave in January.
