A 2015/16 Football Thread

its hard to say n the ref think I know they tried with utd ad say penalties at Old trafford

Problem is the better teams also attack more, and generally, foul less so its so hard to be definitive. Ie it was just more information to allow fans to argue.

IIRC surveys do show refs tend to always be “homers” and all teams get more 50/50 decisions at home than away

I am not sure that is intentional bias. I have no source for that claim but think I read it somewhere

I also think we should be more annoyed at cheating players than mistaken refs. A point you made so well 😉

Exactly…..so whilst their fans will be celebrating, the Tinker Man won’t be having any of it

PS: Van Gaal on form in the post match interview. 50 Shades of David De Gea?

He does do a good media interview and i thought it was funny

I think the score tonight will be 1-1 which is still not quite enough for LCFC to celebrate

And Spurs would be 7 points behind with 2 games to play, why would foxes not be celebrating?.

Well the way this has started, whatever the final score, it’s probably unlikely there will be 22 players still on the pitch. Handbags are well and truly out already 😆

Come on Chelski you vile team full of vile players owned by a vile man with a nice manager !

BOOM!

….no skin in the game, but want to see it go to the wire 😛

Costa/Vertonghen to last 90mins?

Game on.

This game is like a Royal Rumble….eye pokes and everything.

Looks like Dembele will be joining Fellaini on the retroactive naughty step.

No way can this end with all the players on the pitch
Two well taken goals though so spurs really need to calm down as they can only beat themselves from this position

I thought eye gouging was a rugby thing? I reckon there should have been at least two reds already. Think there will definitely be some retrospective slapped wrists after this.

It’s like watching pub football! 😆

Been flicking back and forth wiv the snooker and missed a few bits but now set on footie for the 2nd half.

( good come back on the snooker looking likely BTW)

And Spurs would be 7 points behind with 2 games to play, why would foxes not be celebrating?.

What odds Leicester losing it now ….less than 5000-1 I’ll wager?

Impressive from Cahill.

Been a cracking game.

😯

BOOM! Going to be an interesting last ten minutes now!

Never ever uttered the following….

Come on Chelsea!!!

how is this still 11 v 11?

It’s like watching a Leeds match from the 70’s. 😀

Apologies, got my maths wrong !! 😳

Chelsea have never won a Premier League game in which they’ve trailed by 2+ goals at half time (D1 L30).

well done Spuds,

This is hilarious

FA panel are going to be busy after that

Congrats to Leicester no one saw that coming

To quote Alex:

Football. Bloody hell!

😯

Brilliant!

congrats claudio

Amazing, well done Leicester

Disappointed Spurs lost the title with such poor grace at the home of the charmless and graceless. Need to secure second place now.

Congratulations to Leicester – played great football all season and deserved winners. Tottenham’s turn next year….

Well done Leicester. Fantastic.

Danny Rose…..such a charmer.

Top of the league, we’re Leicester City, we’re top of the league.

That a was a nice ‘**** you’ to all of those supposed pundit experts, we were rampant.

Will be upset if we don’t take the title off Chelsea now.

Spot on scandal42! Amazing how even not really being interested in football one can still enjoy Spurs failing 🙂

There’s probably a few Spurs players who’s season is over after that display.

Well done Leicester! Thoroughly deserved

Yes. Well done Leicester. What a great story.

Am I right in thinking the only Spurs player not be booked at the end was the goalie?

Job done! Yesssss!!!!!!!!!

Amazing season….what a story, someone should do a film about it.

By the looks of the footage on Sky, Jamie Vardy is indeed having a party. Gonna be some sickies getting chucked in Leicester tomorrow 😀

What a wonderful outcome for Leicester and for football, many congratulations

@binners game of two halfs, always dissapointing to give up a two goal lead but 2-2 away to Chelsea where we have a very modest record is decent enough, just not good enough to keep the chase alive for another week.
