So in the last 10 minutes the referee awards a penalty to West Ham after Reid dives. Doesn't award a penalty after Ogbañna wraps his arm around Huth’s neck and pulls him down and then awards a penalty in the last seconds on what looks like a huge makeup call.

That guy isn't qualified to be a referee in League Two, much less the Premier League based on those last 10 minutes.

We still have to beat Stoke, though. Bogey ground for us, too.


Slaven Bilic though what a coach.

No_20 keeps coming at me with this too, I never at any point said that Bilic wasn't a good coach.

He has done a very good job, they play good football.

Was a joke.

I think both the yellows on Vardy were harsh. 10 men with 30 mins to play and missing the Swansea game - anyone would think the ref wanted to be part of the "Leicester" film.

Neither penalties were penalties. There were much more obvious penalties.

Just hope refereeing doesn't ruin a great season.

??

He coached a team to a losing position against 11 men and a draw against 10.

He's a very good coach but I think Ranieri showed again that he deserves european coach of the year.

What is the question mark for? He is a very very good coach. Why do we compare with Ranieri? I didn't say he is better than Ranieri. So there is nothing to do with Ranieri.

Since you quoted me, let me tell you something. You remember when you opened the thread last year when your team was in relegation zone, your team survived in the league, bunch of us said that leicester stayed in the league because of this thread. Because in that thread, you were humble, a true fan going after your team and literally hoped to stay in epl in which we all loved it. We all congratulated you that you opened the thread and this thread kept your team in EPL.

But now I see a little bit cockiness on you. You are taking shots at others, putting Ranieri into every single thread, making fun of some other teams and fans. It seems you lost your control after your team became competitive and running for a championship. So with these behaviours you can jinx your team. I am not criticizing or taking shots at you, don't get me wrong, I am just telling you my honest opinion just like I said to you that your thread was the reason why Leicester stayed in the league last year. just saying, you know.

Massi, are you really telling somebody to stay humble? :D

I don't mean to speak for anybody here, but personally I think HIF has always been polite and respectful, which is quite something given that I'm a fan of Leicester's primary rivals this season. It's not like he turned into GMgoran all of a sudden now that Leicester are winning. He also contributes to different discussions here, not just about Leicester, and I don't think he makes fun of teams more than anyone else does.

Classic Arsenal, dominate the possession in the midfield but can't finish off their weaker opponent

I had a feeling Palace were going to get something against them today, especially with Adebayor playing.

Walcott is just awful, god I hope he doesn't get picked for the Euros. The 27 year old youth prospect.

but to be honest, they had a lot of injuries. If they didn't have those injuries, they could have made it. Also, refs. Always went against them. Nothing to their favour. Also Leicester has been superb. They are not losing any games. Also Spurs are very good, they are winning. Also Manchester City didn't drop the league yet. It seems they picked up their form. Also, also, also, also. If these things didn't happen, they could have won the league. But nevermind there is always next year. They will win next year until March. Then there is further year coming up.

Other than Wenger, who here is making excuses for Arsenal? They choked and no one disagrees

Friend I thank you for the reply.

I am not powerful enough to "jinx" a football team.

If we can win enough points to be top we'll be champions, if we can't we won't. It'll have been a great season anyway.

I cannot take credit for a Leicester survival nor for a Leicester/Tottenham title.

I love my team and I apologise for any friendly attacks on other teams.
