I didn't have them to go down, but I don't think I considered them even for a second for a top half finish. In hindsight, I overrated Palace, United, Chelsea and Everton in my preseason predictions.

Well, if they win the FA Cup it's been a tremendous season for them, really. But overall they've been a disappointment, yeah.

That's ridiculous.

Why are people being penalised at the end of the season for things that have not been penalised throughout the season so much?

There should have been 6 games worth of bans in that match but spread between 6 players!
I remember when the Dolphins were perennial contenders

Or maybe they were outclassed by the runaway league champs :D

I'm back in Leicester this week and the city was absolutely buzzing today. Blue and white everywhere. Flags, Tshirts, balloon trophies.

Fantastic atmosphere

And a lot of "celebrating"

We're all having a party.

I predicted a backpass to Vardy against Leicester, but this is probably even better to miss his own farewell game. Fitting end for a true gentleman.

Will be interesting if he joins his mate Lamps in New York.

The day after the September 11 attacks, Terry and then Chelsea team-mates Frank Lampard, Eidur Gudjohnsen and Jody Morris, were accused of drunkenly mocking American tourists following a drinking session at Heathrow Airport. Fined two weeks wages

Eye gouging happened throughout the season?

I agree to a degree with the FA being very inconsistent with their retrospective penalties but this is deserved. I mean Lamela/Rose/Cesc (if the rumours about him starting things are true) should've gotten a ban for what they did and I'd argue Dier too especially in the last 10 minutes when he was out for blood.

On a lighter note, congrats. The atmosphere at the King Power looked amazing.

Pretty good game at the Lane so far. Wasted some good opportunities though.

Celtic win the SPL. What an underdog story.
