I'm sure they'll get everything in order but worth watching the video for the images of what one of the stadium entrances looks like.
They'll figure it out.
My late father-in-law (RIP) grew up across the street from Selhurst Park...when Palace finally got back into the EPL he was laughing his ass off...
"That ground was a ####hole 30 years ago! PL teams are not going to enjoy playing there!"
But they got it sorted.
I remember him telling me that at Selhurst the water supply to the visitor's dressing room came out of a garden-hose and if Palace lost the groundstaff was instructed to turn it off.
I didnt know about Luton's meteoric rise. They're going to be an interesting wildcard next season.

1-0 is a fragile lead ... going to be frantic 20 minutes for Everton. Leicester are doing their job, but if not for Bournemouth's help, it'll be too little too late.

A very strange game by Liverpool. 2 goals in 14 minutes, then lets South Hampton have their way and score FOUR goals. Then easily scored two goals back-to-back in a 2 minute span in the second half. 4-4 draw
I dunno about everton having an easier time next year... they are about to get floored for financial fair play violations. I think they are gonna get a points deduction next season, I don't even think it is beyond the realm of possibilities that is gets applied retroactively and they go down. They are like 3x above the permitted loss threshold for the last three seasons cumulatively with 360 mil in losses.
Troubles there are way deeper than this season, will take 3 or 4 years for them to dig themselves put and rebuild a decent foundation on solid ground
Liverpool (Southampton game aside) showed more of what they’re capable of in the latter third of the season with the catalyst being the comeback against Arsenal in a game where they looked nailed on to lose to one they played well enough to win. Liverpool can thank Xhaka for that.
United are on the right trajectory and are well managed - they will be challengers next year. They have in my opinion, the depth to compete in the Prem and the CL but probably not enough at present to win either if they go far in both.
Newcastle had a terrific season but it is difficult to work out if they can take the next step - the off season will be interesting, particularly with the focus on FFP for some Clubs.
Arsenal went from a late season collapse to miss out on the Top 4 to not having the strength to see out this season. Squad additions are needed with cover for Saliba a replacement for Xhaka and a clinical striker. I don’t see how they challenge next season with the added resources needed to take part in the CL.But as a fan, I enjoyed our season, and there are players I can really get behind and like. Edu and Arteta have done a fantastic job in getting rid of players that were never going to take us anywhere. The transition has been way faster than I could’ve hoped.
All the above for all teams is tempered by Man City - they have the resources they need to see off any challenge. Only Liverpool in recent years with a win and incredible challenges and Arsenal this season, prevented them making the title race a procession. They have done this via the infinite cheat mode and even if they haven’t most will perceive that they have as long as they refuse to be be transparent and cooperate with the football authorities asking legitimate questions of them.
