'If It's Football, It's Vital'

Luton Board statement

Luton's Board released the following statement after their emergency Board meeting yesterday to discuss Mike Newell's recent comments both about female officials and Bill Tomlins' Chairmanship:

'The Board of Directors of Luton Town Football Club have met today to consider the comments made by the Manager, Mike Newell, in the post match press conference at last Saturday's game versus Queens Park Rangers.

'The Club disassociates itself totally with the sexist comments made by him, which have no place in this Club and are completely unacceptable.

'Representatives of the Board will be meeting with the Manager as a matter of urgency to ask him to explain his comments and other criticisms.

'Until this meeting has taken place the Club will make no further comment.

Taking three hours to decide that they need to speak to Newell and to compose 97 words of statement kinda proves Newell's point, d'ya think?

On that basis, how long will it take them to fill in a planning application form?
