It is, I must admit, a long time since I last had a flutter on a fixture involving Luton Town.
The unpredictability of our play and the nature in which results either delight or disappoint, mean that, as a retiree, I would now rather spend my money elsewhere.
However, whilst the urge has now been suppressed, I do, sometimes, look at the odds available and have a pretend flutter.
Often, I smile wryly knowing that my predictions were well wide of the mark.
Yesterday, I suspected that the game would end 1-1, therefore I was delighted when, in the 7th minute of stoppage time, Kal Naismith smashed home that glorious winner to make it 3-2.
Glimpsing through numerous social media posts, I couldn’t help but notice the following joyous comment left:
Brilliant result, had a couple of quid on 3-2, 33/1 ! Deserved that after having goal chalked off in the first half. #Stfc

It seems the poster got a nice return on his outlay, is there anyone else out there who was as lucky?
But, out of interest, how many of you partake in a pre-match bet or are you, like me, frugally careful?
