That is not a clickbait title Ladies and Gentlemen.
After beating Coventry City 6-5 on penalties at Wembley yesterday evening Luton Town will be playing Premier League football for the first time next season.
Little Kenilworth Road, with only a 10,356 capacity, missed out on being an inaugural Premier League stadium by a single season but now it’s back at the top table to welcome the likes of Manchester City, Arsenal and Newcastle United into it’s compact habitat.
How many ridiculous giant-killings will The Hatters be able to pull out of this diminutive fortress?
The higher that number is the better their chances of surviving the pull of the trapdoor that heralds an immediate return to the Championship.
However long their stay in the Premier League may prove to be I’ve no doubt their fans will enjoy themselves.
Having been a non-league club as recently as the 2013/14 season and only starting their meteoric rise up the pyramid with promotion out of League Two at the end of 2017/18.
A second successive promotion followed the next season and having now spent just 4 seasons in the Championship they are back at the top level.
With Manchester City having waltzed to yet another title and the spectre of the Super League still lingering on, it’s incredible to have the story of Luton Town here to remind fans all over the world about the magic of football.
A team rising from the ashes of a 30-point reduction pushing them into non-league to play at the top level once more. Days like these are why football fans follow their teams all over the country through the good times and the bad.
