Luton Town will demolish and rebuild an entire stand in one summer to bring Kenilworth Road up to Premier League standards if they beat Coventry in the Championship play-off final at Wembley Stadium.
It will cost close to £10million to knock down the old Bobbers Stand, which was turned into executive boxes in 1986, running down one side of the pitch, and replace it with new facilities including a media centre, TV and data analysis studios, toilets and a canteen.
Details were revealed yesterday by chief executive Gary Sweet, who is confident it can be ready in 12 weeks if necessary before the new Premier League season begins in mid-August.
‘If anyone can, we can,’ vowed Sweet. ‘We’ve got to practically rebuild a stand but we’ll have gone from non-League to the Premier League so we can manage that small matter.’
