Luton Town FC former player and manager Mick Harford was the host of the 台湾六合彩开奖记录鈥檚 latest 鈥楢n Evening With鈥︹ public event, delving into his life and career in front of a sold-out audience.

Held at the University鈥檚 Luton campus on Thursday 8 February, 鈥楩rom Grassroots to Glory鈥 saw Mick share his memories of his career, as well as reflecting on Luton Town鈥檚 rise to the Premier League.

If you missed the event or want to relive it, you can on the University鈥檚 YouTube channel.

Mick was quizzed by a panel made up of Media, Marketing & PR student Fleur O鈥橞rien, Journalism student Amia Clarke, Radio & Audio alumni Rob Clark, alongside Jon Boyle, Senior Lecturer in Communications. The panel guided Mick through his career journey and chaired a Q&A session involving both the audience in the room and those watching online around the world.

Sharing his advice with the audience, Mick said: 鈥淚t鈥檚 an honour and a privilege to be here at the 台湾六合彩开奖记录. My career and what I did in football is no different to what you do or what we鈥檙e all trying to achieve. We all have our goals, something to aim for, and that鈥檚 no different for a footballer. Whatever business you鈥檙e in, whatever you do in your life, my message is this: stay strong, be yourself and go for it.鈥

Mick shared fascinating tales of his time playing and managing with Luton Town, answering audience questions on his favourite players and memories, as well as lifting the lid on the Club鈥檚 player recruitment process.

After the event, Mick also joined attendees posing for selfies and signing autographs before mingling with the crowd over light refreshments.

This event is just one of the exciting benefits of the University鈥檚 Official Education Partnership with Luton Town, which sees a range of student career development opportunities. Last November, students from the School of Arts & Creative Industries were given the chance to report live from the press box at Kenilworth Road.
