I'm finding that quite curious, this morning there was an article on the Luton website with Buckle's thoughts on the rest of the season, and tonight's match, and yet 10 hours later, and 3 hours before a match it's announced he's leaving by mutual consent due to &quotgenuine personal circumstances&quot.

CAn't help thinking that the circumstances are linked to another job somewhere....
....such as Slumdon where he already 2nd favourite (behind a return for Paulo)..along with Mike Newell, Steve Pressley &amp Dave Hockaday

Reminds me of Mrs. Brown's Boys

&quotI couldn't work with the man after what he said to me&quot

&quotWhat did he say&quot

&quotYou're fired.&quot

Alan Knill has taken over as interim manager at Torquay while Martin Ling on sick leave...

....which blows one theory over why Buckle left Luton

BTW after Di Canios mob quit live on Sky last night, Buckle has now moved ahead of Di Canio as favourite for the Slumdon job.

More to do with Mrs. Buckle working for ESPN football which is finishing at the end of the season and her getting a new job in the States.

I'm surprised Holdsworth lasted this long at Sincil Bank.
What price his brother being sacked if the Shots lose at home to Torquay tomorrow night?
Dean Holdsworth has indeed been sacked tonight.

Andy Scott is apparently 1/10 for the Aldershot job.

If true, this is impressive knowledge, given that two days later not one newspaper in the luton area seems to have a clue!!

Gary Waddock now favourite ahead of Westley for Luton, Jimmy floyd hasselbaink now favourite for Slumdon (obviously!)
