<p>Spurs did a brilliant impression of being non-Spursy all season - and then it all came in a rush right at the end. With 4 games to go, many "pundits" (pundits = the same people who have been spectacularly wrong with all predictions this season) were proclaiming that Spurs would pick up 12 and so Leicester would need at least 8 to win the title. As it happened, Leicester did get 8 ... and Spurs got 2.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>August 2014 - April 1, 2015 Leicester had 4 wins and 18 defeats.</p>
<p>Since then Leicester have had 30 wins and 4 defeats.</p>

<p>It is totally crazy.</p> -
Straw clutching of Arsenal proportions. <br><br>
Leicester pretty convincing in the end. Good season. Let's hope next year doesn't revert to type -

<p>If you're referring to me I didn't say it wasn't disappointing!!

<p>This is Leicester packing out Victoria Park!</p>

<p>A classic game of two halves. Sturridge robbed Lovren of a goal which would have made it 2-0. Liverpool fans will feel hard done by with some 50/50 hand balls in the box that weren't given but those are the breaks.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Hooroo, I think Man City would still have qualified for the CL. A moot point now.</p> -
<p>And in the final death throes of the season ......</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Real Madrid take the UCL on penalties after a 1-1 draw with their cross-town rivals. Pretty much 100% different to predicted as Real played on the break after an early goal and Atleti bashed at the door and eventually bagged an equaliser after missing a penalty. In the penalty shoot-out, Juanfran was the only one to miss and Ronaldo got to take his shirt off - he'd been ineffective during the game and looked injured.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Hull are back in the Premier League which is a bit tedious - it means 2/3 of those relegated last season have bounced straight back (Hull & Burnley) and there's a fair chance they will go straight back down again without some investment in talent.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Meanwhile Barnsley achieved the not inconsiderable feat of being bottom after 20 games and getting promoted via the play-offs. They are back in the Championship. The final domestic game is AFC Wimbledon v Plymouth to go up to League One. Which would put Wimbledon in the same division as the franchise MK Dons that originally replaced them.</p>
