Green light for Town academy

HOPEFUL Hatters have cleared the first hurdle in their pursuit to relocate their training facilities to the old Barnfield South Academy site, writes Mark Wood.

At Monday night’s meeting of the Luton Borough Council Executive the Hatters’ plans to set up a ‘Football Academy’ there were given the green light.

A Luton Borough Council spokesman said: “The proposal is for part of the site to be leased to Luton Town Football Club to use as a base for their Football Academy and as a first team training venue, requiring the provision of new shower/changing accommodation.”
