Rainstorms at Grays, snow at Eastbourne, freezing sleet at Histon. The 2009-10 season was the weirdest ever for Luton Town and its army of fans, plunged into the mysterious world of non-league football thanks to massive points deductions. Life-long supporter Rob Hadgraft kept a diary of this odyssey into the unknown. He recorded the horror and the humour as Luton’s huge band of boisterous followers traipsed to baby stadiums in far-flung places. Often the away fans outnumbered their hosts. This book will serve as a permanent and poignant record of the Hatters' mad journey to the Dark Side of the Moon.
