Luton Town Faces Consecutive Relegation to League One

Luton Town suffered a second consecutive relegation, dropping from the Championship to League One after a heavy defeat by West Bromwich Albion, despite recent momentum and three straight wins before the final match. Their relegation was sealed as Hull City's draw at Portsmouth allowed Hull to leapfrog Luton, whose defensive lapses and poor performance disappointed both players and the over 2,500 traveling fans. Manager Matt Bloomfield expressed deep regret and apologized to supporters, acknowledging the anger and pain of back-to-back relegations. He noted that while the team had shown resilience in recent months, their defensive solidity collapsed at the crucial moment. Bloomfield emphasized the need to analyze what went wrong and pledged the club's determination to fight back. The result makes Luton only the fourth club in the Premier League era to suffer consecutive relegations from the top flight to League One.
