You don't win a league over 38 games as a conspiracy :rolleyes:

The simple fact is Leicester caught many sides on the hop and were able to sustain their high octane game over a longer period than expected.

Kante was unreal, Vardy couldn't stop scoring, in Kasper they had a goalkeeper who was playing at a level he will never hit again, same with Huth and Morgan.

I'd never expect to see Sunderland go win the league, but it just goes to show what a proper structure and astute signings can do.

This is why we will NEVER do a Leicester, our club is a shambles from top to bottom.
 
But bets on them were not high at the start of the season.
It's the bookies that wank themselves silly when all the favourites fail and an outsider wins, regardless of any flukey winning bets.

You get these miracle sporting achievements happening from time to time
The miracle on ice olympics
That was ridiculous. The Russians beat them 10-3 in a warm up game, and didn't they beat Finland, Czechoslovakia and Sweden too, all of which were equally outrageous results?

At the time I thought it was an amazing feat and great story. The Leicester players are doing a great job of making sure that we never forget how unbelievable their title win was with their performances last year.

Kanté is an unbelievable player. Made Drinkwater look like a footballer ffs
 
Amazing story. Still don't know how it happened. They were lucky with injuries and the like and there way of playing didn't get worked out for some reason. It's amazing what momentum does and an important part of football is played in the mind. Confidence being wonderful thing.

It's also worth going back to the season before. They had an amazing escape of their own in staying up and those wins and the confidence it must have brought took them into the start of the season full of it and the ball just kept rolling.

Yes was just a bunch of part time guys thrown together because of the boycott. The teams they beat and eventually the Russians was truly fairytale stuff
 
There's a good reason for that.

He doesn't know the answers but judge, jury and executioner have already done their jobs.

You only need to read posts on here to see why the random jury service in this country is flawed. God help you if there is no evidence against you but you have shifty looking eyes and the likes of @PhilSAFC are one of your peers. :lol:
 
Always thought it could happen if you got on a decent run and were lucky on the injury front.

Of course.

No one said Sunderland were on PED's when they were near the top at Christmas a decade or so a go. There's been a few average clubs who have performed up until Christmas before falling away. It was only a matter of time until one of these clubs managed to keep up the performances for a whole season instead of half a season.

Eh?
Are they astute signings or had they all just hit a level they never will again?
