        <p>Leicester were 5,000 to 1 to win the Premier League at the start of the season. Amazing stuff!</p>

          What an incredible story. It's still going to take a while to sink in among the football pundits, many of who had Leicester down for relegation and Chelsea for the title. <br><br>
          Well done Leicester, it's made me care about the Premier League again.

              <p>i watched Chelsea v Spurs this morning. The second half was a bit, well, spicy. Some Spurs players let themselves down by letting their frustration get the better of them, some of the lunges in were poor at best. And the boy with the fingers in the eye is going to be sitting out the rest of the year.</p>
              <p> </p>
              <p>Chelsea's 2nd goal was worth watching the game for itself.</p>
              <p> </p>
              <p>Congratulations to Leicester, what a story. The most unlikely league win in any sport i can remember (in terms of where they were at the start of the season). </p>
              <p> </p>
              <p> </p>
              <p>As this is sport, and it never stands still, what do they do now?</p>

                                <p>So now we have to look forward to Gary Lineker hosting Match of the Day in his undies.  Every silver lining has its cloud</p>
                                <p> </p>
                                <p>So what next.</p>
                                <p> </p>
                                <p>Can Leicester hold on to the current squad?</p>
                                <p> </p>
                                <p>How much of their financial windfall will they spend strengthening their squad for CL?</p>
                                <p> </p>
                                <p>Taking nothing away from Ranieri who has done a sensational job and should have the job for as long as he wants it, but given this was Pearson's squad really, wonder what would have happened if he hadn't been outed as a racist and bully.</p>
                                <p> </p>
                                <p>Great result for football, Premiership and every supporter of a club outside the big 5.  What value the talk of a breakaway European Championship know?</p>
                                <p> </p>
                                <p>Must suck to be Spurs (or Arsenal).</p>

                                    <p>so with Leicester paying 5000/1 at the start, wonder what the odds were for a Leicester-Tottenham 1-2 (if that end up that way) woulda been astronomical?</p>
