Weird that Boro are the favourites considering Luton’s form over the season and recent win against them. I mean they’re my favourite too, just funny people discount Luton.

It's been a long time since the 6th place team has won the play offs, hopefully that continues this season.

True, but same for them. I don't think they really got out of third gear yesterday.

Luton barely get talked about it seems, listening to the media talking about us coming from L2 in 2018 but they completely ignore Luton got promoted from the same league the same season. Their story to be fair is even more dramatic than ours.

Haven’t we took 4 points against Middlesbrough this season? Pretty sure that’s right. On that team against team form over a season you’d think we’d be going into the Middlesbrough games as favourites with the bookies.

Would have thought that’s partly because they made it last season and I imagine got all that then.

I had some sage advice from a member of the forum (Hill83 if I recall correctly) when we had the covid season...It was money you could afford when you put the bet on. Let it run to its conclusion. It is only £10 loss.

I wonder what the odds were after 7 games?

I cashed out- only when there was some talk of the company not honouring the bet.

1st game was when Wilder was in charge so doesn't count !, can't read too much into yesterdays all we wanted to do was avoid defeat and get through it without any more injuries/sendings off

And I think same for us too (although maybe to a lesser extent).

I don't think it is , they had a dreadful 5 year period .. we had 16 long drawn out awful years full of nonsense like ground sharing twice , selling merch off pasting tables in the concourse .. 2 administrations , no club shop , no ticket office ..

Our issues were far more problematic over a longer period , we were literally a laughing stock of football

They went down to the 5th division us the 4th but we're a much bigger club

Taken us 6 seasons to get here

This is Luton 10th

Also and another big point , our rise is with 1 manager Luton with about 3 or 4

Who’s funding Luton? What sort of losses do they make?

Genuine quote from a Sunderland fan on their forum, "If we beat Coventry in the final, will the fans from the early 1900’s stop blagging about why we apparently hate them?" made me giggle!

I think Ramsay is done for the Season he knacked himself in the Norwich game a few weeks ago and is back at Villa having treatment. I think Howson will be. We're sweating on Forss and Fry as well. McNair gets hard times off a lot of our fans and want Leninhan/Fry as CBs

Was quite simple. Just went with the form. Two teams suddenly needed to start winning to make us need more than 69 points. Couldn't see any side do it. That was why I called 1-1 with Blackburn and two home wins to make it.

My 1-1 against Middlesbrough wasn't a bad call either

What odds you offering?

Us getting into the playoffs was almost certain for me. I even told you how we would make it. That's why I said up to £500 charity bet.

The playoffs? A total lottery.

Coward?

I gave you evens when the bookies were offering 4/1.

3/1 odds for us to make it. If you're too much of a coward to take it I will offer you the 3/1 for us to make it.

Your choice
