LONDON : Luton Town have had some magical moments in their chequered history but one remains lodged in the memories of football fans of a certain vintage - the David Pleat victory dance.

For Luton, it was mainly down after they were relegated from the top-flight after a 10-year stay in 1992 - the season before the Premier League began with its accompanying riches. According to Deloitte's Sports Business Group, whoever grabs the last place in the Premier League on Saturday will enjoy a 170 million pounds revenue boost across the next three seasons, rising to in excess of 290 million pounds if the club avoids relegation.

For Luton, promotion could be transformational as they look to leave their ramshackle Kenilworth Road home, that Tripadvisor rates as the worst visiting fan experience in English football, and move to a gleaming new stadium.
