Neither Leeds or Ipswich have seemed like they’ve wanted autos the past few weeks, horrible form to take into the playoffs. Would be gutting to finish on 90+ points and lose in the POs

I did keep saying (along with a few others) you just can't predict games at this stage of the season.

No-one would have predicted for Leeds to get absolutely thumped 4 nil at QPR tonight.

Teams at the top can falter and those at the bottom, suddenly start playing like a team at the other end of the table.

Off you go Leicester. Well done Marecsca getting the most expensive squad the Championship has ever seen promoted.
The cheating has paid off and now the EFL can't touch you.
Hope the Premiership ruins you as a club. Enjoy the points deductions and getting battered every week.

I'm going to Teignmouth at the end of May to play in a walking football tournament (with 3 other Cov ST holders, plus another Cov fan, and I'm staying at my Leicester ST holder mate's house. Initially worried that it may clash with play offs or Wembley final. but that is now a 0.001% chance. Going to have to put up with some banter, but at least we've got him outnumbered! He's definitely getting the first round or two in!

It’s annoying they get away with cheating again. Are they likely to get a points deduction in the PL?

Wanted to Leeds to go up to give us a better chance of autos next year. They'll have another 90 point season next year.

Championship will be just as strong next year if West Brom or Norwich manage to win the play offs.

I was looking at that Leeds team and thinking that if they lose Summerville, and perhaps Gnonto, they won't pose quite the same threat. It is difficult to know what financial cuts they/Southampton might have to make.

Haven’t Leeds also got loads of players out on loan due to return?

I have always been an atheist until now, but now I suddenly believe in God.

It's a sign. The almighty has sent Leicester up so he can punish them in the Premier League.

1st ever to go down on minus 3 the the efl do them for breaking rules this season.
In all seriousness though, I think they have a number of players out of contract this season so have an opportunity to reduce the wage bill, but can’t see any of them staying for less money, except maybe Vardy. He won’t get offered big bucks at his age and if he can get another year to help pay his misses court debts he may sign, but is getting old for PL now

A Premier League return is the only certainty in Leicester’s cloudy future | Ben Fisher

Enzo Maresca’s side kept their heads to secure promotion but financial worries loom large as club prepare for the top flight

He managed to blow a 17 point lead with the most expensive squad ever seen in the Championship and a wage bill that would be amongst the highest in the PL.

Only you could rate him as a manager.

Kompany
Gerrard
Maresca

Hard not to see Ipswich getting at least the 5 points they need. Talk of us beating them is pretty hilarious though

Let's stick to facts shall we?

Gerrard I hold my hands up. Thought he gonna go on to great career and it's not panned out.

However I never said I rate "Enzo". I said he's doing alright. I would say automatic promotion is "alright". Anyone who doesn't is a child or idiot.

I said kompany did a good job last season. I would say 100 pts is a "good season" anyone who disagreed once again you know the drill.

You don't like being wrong so you try to change the scenarios after and go well they crap in premier league but not once have I ever made comment on wether they will step up to prem or not. Only commented on championship and I was right for both clearly.

You fucked up here son. Learn from it. You have been "woeful"

You clearly do rate him.

I expected them to get promoted with their squad and wage bill. They managed to in spite of him managing to blow a 17 point lead; he’s a poor manager.

I clearly don't. What I don't like is hyperbole. And woeful is hyperbole. Football ain't as simple as best team finishes top no matter what. You chatted shit to me disrespectfully simply because I said he was doing alright.

You fuck around you find out. Now go clean the egg off your face and I'll let this drop.

They still need a manager . This nonsense of anyone could manage them and they still win league is exactly that. Nonsense

You can say it's an easier job than other managers have for sure. But you can't say there shit just for doing what they expected to do.
