JOHN STILL has dismissed claims from Cambridge United manager Richard Money that Luton are paying ‘League One' wages.
Money, a former Hatters boss who left Kenilworth Road in March 2011, commented on the finances at Luton following his side's FA Cup defeat against Sheffield United.
“The team we are talking about, who won yesterday, has an average gate of 6,500 and pay their players League One salaries,” Money said.
“We are in equally as good form. They've gone 14 games unbeaten. Well done, but you are just doing your jobs.”
The sides, currently occupying the top two positions in the Skrill Premier, have been matched in the next round of the FA Trophy and Still has rubbished Money's claims, pointing to when he tried to sign former loanne Mickey Spillane on a permanent deal.
“I wouldn't know what resources Cambridge have, but what I do know is when we spoke to Mickey Spillane, we couldn't match the offer that Cambridge made,” Still told the Luton News.
“Since I've been here, I've purposefully bought the budget down, but that's not something I want to get into.
“I'm just going to worry about Luton and the finance side of Cambridge is nothing to do with me.”
