RodneyCisse Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 Next step, world peace. Not Newcastle winning, it. Nah. World Peace is closer. Aliens are closer, ffs. We need to send some players to Thailand. Even the Yankees winning a WS is closer and thats saying something. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Venkman Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 Dier should've been sent off twice Really could have done with him being banned for the rest of the season. He still might although I don't know how the ref can say he didn't see the last one. Two yellows then though, 1 game ban. That first challenge is the sort of tackle Tiote gets capital punishment for.

Stifler Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 As if this is a victory for 'us' against Sky the Prem and the 'big clubs', Sky have been gagging for this since about Christmas and the Prem refs have given em everything. Aye, they are happy they have won it as one fluke season will be enough for them to say that anyone can win and have an equal chance. Next season referee's will be even more biased for the big clubs to ensure it never happens again. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stifler Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 West Ham and Everton 200-1 next season ? No-one will be 5,000-1 again, a bit like when we drew with Arsenal 4-4 and people who put half time bets on at 20,000-1 cashed in, there has never been 20,000-1 bets since.

Guest firetotheworks Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 Greatest football achievement of all time. dunno Clough taking forest up (in 3rd) then immediately winning the league and back to back European Cups is hard to overlook but still hell of an achievement The money involved now compared to then is gigantic though. Teams were able to do that back then. Derby, Villa, Everton, Leeds won the league and teams like QPR, Southampton, Ipswich and Watford finished 2nd. In the last 20 years it's never been any team other than Man United, Chelsea, Arsenal, Man City that has won it and the only other teams out of those that has finished 2nd is us and Liverpool. Not to mention that they only just escaped relegation last season, the line up hasn't changed massively, nor have they had money thrown at them. They've been top from start to finish and thoroughly deserve the title. It's absolute once in a lifetime stuff that seems completely fictional.

oldtype Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 As if this is a victory for 'us' against Sky the Prem and the 'big clubs', Sky have been gagging for this since about Christmas and the Prem refs have given em everything. Aye, they are happy they have won it as one fluke season will be enough for them to say that anyone can win and have an equal chance. Next season referee's will be even more biased for the big clubs to ensure it never happens again. If anything Sky is precisely the reason this is possible. Now that every Prem club has spending power that outstrips 99% of clubs on the continent, anyone can build a decent squad/hire a good manager by spending through the roof. Once you do that and everything breaks right for you like it did for Leicester, you're in business. Obviously Man Utd/Chelsea/Man City will still have a slight built-in advantage but it isn't insurmountable like it was just 5~6 years ago. This is bad news for the Spurs and Newcastles of the world who have/had fanbases and financial means that far outstripped those of other second-tier clubs, but it's great for everyone else and the watchability of the Premier League in general. Who knew that Sky money would end up being the great equalizer? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good scouting to spot technically good footballers, who work hard and have something about them. Basically the complete opposite to how we do it.

Beren Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 Funny thing is, they won't even refer to Leicester as a big club next season. They're not? Anyway, loved that end to the game. Brutal. Clattenburg was absent at the wheel though. How did that end 11 vs 11? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
