You Couldn't Make It Up, Roddy Collins Jr Is On Trial With John Still's Luton Town

Cast your minds back to the FAI Cup final at the start of November. Forget about the fact that St Pats won their first Cup for two millennia, because perched high in the stands at the Aviva that day there was a conversation going on that could change the face of Irish football as we know it.

Luton Town manager John Still was being taken on a guided scouting trip by the oracle of Irish football that is Roddy Collins and he did not like what he was seeing.

'There’s not one of those players would get into my team'. That was Still's opinion, and on the day, perhaps he was correct in his observation that there was no real standout performer. But, in defence of the League of Ireland, Roddy Collins' son wasn't there.

If the player that was released by Derry City not long after his father's departure from the Brandywell had been on the pitch at the Aviva, then perhaps John Still would have had a different opinion. But fear not, he now has his chance because he has been taken on trial by, you guessed it, John Still's Luton Town. We shit you not.

Keith Fahey, Chris Forrester or Barry McNamee wouldn't make it at Luton, but in their defence, their dad doesn't know John Still.
