Luton named a replacement for him last week, I’m sure it was someone from Forest Green.
 
It's being rumoured that he's coming because his forte of unearthing cheap lower league gems wouldn't be suited to the prem so he's still going to jump ship to us for a new challenge.

I'd have thought going to the prem and applying his skill set there would be a far more exciting challenge but there.

Hopefully it's to our advantage however.
 
The only reason that anyone doesn’t take the PL dollar is that they are not offered it. He’s being discarded by Luton. If he had significant value to them now they would just buy him back. He obviously doesn’t. Let’s hope, as you say, it’s for the ‘right’ reasons…more responsibility, different skills required etc.

To be honest though replacing him with someone from Forest Green who’ve just been relegated to League 2 suggests that Watson told Luton he wanted out and not the other way around.

I hope for sound reasons. People don’t usually turn down a potential big payday. Sounds like his position was thought unimportant there, so maybe there was no bumper bonus on offer and our job is more attractive. Hope so.
