Luton Town 1999–2000 football season
During the 1999–2000 English football season, Luton Town F.C. competed in the Football League Second Division .
Season summary
Just before the 1999–2000 season, the club was sold to Cliff Bassett, while player sales continued to balance the books.[ 1] Young duo Kelvin Davis and Chris Willmott were sold to Wimbledon for £900,000, and Lawrence was forced to sell Gary Doherty late on in the season, but he successfully kept an inexperienced Luton side up once again. Mike Watson-Challis then purchased the club in 2000,[ 1] and Lawrence was sacked to be replaced by former Luton player Ricky Hill .[ 2]
