Runstrom's Luton Notes

RE: Re: RE: Runstrom slams Luton

Trust me Spencer, he didn't say those things. He would never be so disrespectful and he's mortified that The Sun have picked up the false interview and passed the quotes off as their own direct from him. He's in Sweden until Thursday but I'm sure something will be said publicly by him to clear things up once he gets back.

 

RE: Re: RE: Runstrom slams Luton

It's discussions like these that we get see a little bit of what makes some of our fellow FUSA members tick.

Normally, I agree that a player should not make these comments. And perhaps you few may be correct that a player should NEVER make such comments. But after reading what is going at Luton, I could honestly understand if he did.

If you are a good player, believing in yourself and having proven yourself at a certain level, believing and proving you belong or deserve a chance at the top level, and then get treated poorly at a lower level, watching teammates and coaches get treated just as poorly if not worse, and then watch the wheels come off..........well, I can understand such a response, if not support it.

Does it show that you would respond such a way at the next level, with your REAL team? Maybe.

Does it show a passion for the game and competition that proves you not only expect, but demand, a level of competitiveness and professionalism in your professional career? Certainly could make an argument for that also.

 

RE: Re: RE: Runstrom slams Luton

I don't think he did either. Not based on his reputation so far with Fulham.

But if he did, I am not so sure I would be so quick to attack his character and cut the chord. Not based on all the reports about Luton, and, as you point out, based at least partly on his youth.

Don't throw the Baby Bjorn out with the bath water.

 

RE: Re: RE: Runstrom slams Luton

I want to see Bjorn make an appearance off the substitutes bench...he's gotta be better than John who has made several appearances of late. I remember when Bjorn made an brief appearance earlier in the season (can't remember against who...Lauren...help) he ran his tail off for the short amount of time he was out there. I have yet to see John run for anything, except when i saw him down at McDonalds when they had their 2 for 1 sale on Big Mac's.

My post from TFi on this subject...

First things first, this is old news and comes from a 4 day old ”interview” on Björns own fansite. The interview was removed very quickly after Björn phoned them up – so as usual the Sun is lying. He’s never said this to any journalist.

I believe Björn has said these things because it ”sounds” just like something he would say He would however never, ever say it to a media representative and if he’s said this to Fredrik who runs the fan site it was most likely not meant to be published.

The apology from the fansite and a new interview with Björn was published on Sunday evening and it doesn’t say anything like the text that the Sun has stolen claiming to come from their interview.

‘You can stick your ******* Abba up your arse’


Decide for yerself.

 

RE: Runstrom

Now one of Luton's defenders is calling Runstrom a "maggot of a man". Oh dear.

RE: Runstrom

Björn has released a statement on www.lutontown.co.uk
Now Sol Davis looks a complete fool for blasting Björn as "spineless", a "maggot of a man" and "a coward on and off the pitch" without bothering to check up whether the quotes were genuine or not.
Hmm...something tells me Björn's return to Luton tomorrow might be a liiiiiittle bit frosty :S

 

RE: Runstrom

oh and Omsdogg - it was away against Spurs

 

Re: RE: Runstrom

thanks Lauren. Hopefully when he comes back off of loan he'll get a run out with us...even if it is off the bench.

 

RE: Re: RE: Runstrom

So...Luton have appointed Kevin Blackwell as their new manager on a 4-year contract. Seems many Hatters aren't all that happy about it, and from his comments in the press conference it also sounds like the board have painted a rather sunny and inaccurate picture of the club to sell the job to him! He says they're aiming for the Premiership, have a very bright future and he's looking forward to the new stadium. Err, Kevin, they're second from bottom in the Championship, the board keep selling all the best players and the plans for the stadium haven't been approved and aren't likely to be either! I wonder if he'll pick Björn to start up at Burnley on Saturday...

 

Nooooo I'm going to Fulham-Pompey of course! Much as I love Björn I simply couldn't miss a Fulham home game to watch Luton. That would just be plain wrong...hence why the only of his games at Kenilworth Road I missed was the Wolves one as it clashed with Fulham-Villa. I've got my priorities right, don't you worry
