Just can't believe why they are persueing this, it is just plain crass stupidity! No harm was done, no one else has objected, it was done in a respectable manner as always. They need to realise that if those people had not fought and died for world freedom there wouldn't be a FIFA!

So it's not just Luton, then! There's whole host of clubs that have been hit with idiotic fines for not complying with poorly defined and ill thought out Micky Mouse tournament regulations.
Next year, I bet half the clubs will opt not to enter the stupid bloody competition if this is the reward they get for doing so!
Well spoken Brizzle Rovers boss <ok>

Long-term absentee Matt Jarvis is continuing to make progress after undergoing a knee operation in the summer, while Neil hopes Louis Thompson will be available despite 'carrying a knock'.
Steven Whittaker (stomach) saw further match action on Wednesday evening; playing 77 minutes as City's Development Squad defeated Celtic in the Premier League International Cup at Carrow Road.
That bolsters City's right-back options, with midfielder Alex Tettey also set to return to the matchday squad having served a one-match suspension after collecting five yellow cards.

Hmm, let me read between the lines here? :emoticon-0112-wonde

Woohoo Thompson starts!?!

Bah!
 
So, it's 1-1 at half time at the Amex. <ok>
Also the final score and seems like Villa deserved to win according to the BBC match report.
