Bloomfield Sacked in Latest Low for Struggling Luton

Matt Bloomfield was dismissed after Luton Town won only 5 of 11 League One games and fell to 11th place following relegation from the Championship.

  • On October 6, Luton Town Football Club announced it had parted company with manager Matt Bloomfield, who was relieved two days after a 2-0 defeat at Stevenage.
  • Following relegation last season, Luton Town began the 2025/26 League One campaign with three wins in four but lost four of seven, and performances in the opening 11 matches fell below expectations.
  • With immediate effect, Lawless — aided by Paul Benson, Kevin Foley and Kevin Pilkington — leads the team as Richard Thomas, Lee Harrison and Ben Cirne depart ahead of Tuesday's game.
  • With two training weeks before the next match, the process is underway led by the club's executive team, recruitment, football staff and the board, while the Luton Town Board of Directors thanked Matt Bloomfield and said the club will make no further comment.
  • After back-to-back relegations, Luton Town face a disappointing start to the 2025/26 League One season, sitting 11th despite the club's promotion expectations this year.
