The lifelong Leicester fan stood to win £100,000 from his start-of-the-season long-shot punt on them to win the title.
But now the 59-year-old has walked away with a cool £29,000. Yes he might miss out on £71,000 if Leicester actually do it, but we'd be laughing all the way to the bookies to pick that wedge of cash up.
"Teams have worked out how to play against us and the smaller teams will just start parking the bus," he said.
"I'd actually have preferred our run-in to be against the bigger teams as we know how to beat them.
"It's been a crazy season, I'd be silly not to take my money and run."
He added: "I've also backed Leicester to finish in the top four at 400/1, so I can enjoy the rest of season knowing I've got my winnings early."Explore more on these topics:
