Buckle left the club on Tuesday afternoon and Waddock, who made over 150 appearances for Hatters as a player, is 1/3 on with Stan James.

Waddock polled just 7.12% from over 800 votes cast in a poll on the News/Gazette website asking Luton fans who they wanted in charge, with Steve Robinson, who is managing the Northern Ireland U21s, the preferred choice.

Robinson is currently 20/1 to get the job, while Graham Westley is 9/1, with other contenders Phil Brown 22/1 and York boss Gary Mills out at 25/1.
