    So for Hiag to win the bet, Spurs have to finish 1st and for you to win it Leicester need to finish 10th <laugh>

    Tbf mate if he's that confident we will continue to 'spiral' then he should be confident we will finish will below 10th right? If Spurs for example finished 3rd or 4th and we finished 16th, HAIG would win the bet? Seems a safe bet for such a confident chap to me. Refusal to accept the bet would surely mean he think Spurs will have no way near as good a season or that he knows he's going to look even more stupid over this thread.
    @FosseFilberto why not have a bet in a similar format but give Spurs say 3 league places head start?

    Edit - I read it wrong as one bet comparing the difference in league positions as oppose to two. Still think mine would be good <laugh>

  9. Surely, this proves that I can laugh at myself?

    That demonstrates a decent bloke with a healthy mental attitude to life.

    The truth is that I used all manner of subterfuge to keep the pretence going, and you suckers lapped it up!

    "Yeah, but we knew it was you, HIAG!"

    Bollocks, you did!

    I believe you were laughing when you called those disabled kids on a coach 'Window Lickers'.

  11. That is a disgraceful thing for you to say. Seriously, you need to have a quiet word with yourself.

    Indeed it was a terrible thing at the time you said it whether in jest or not but still disgraceful.

    Would anyone bar Chelsea swap recent seasons for Lesta's.

    100 points promotion
    Miracle escape from relegation
    League winners
    Superb CL run

  14. I see it slightly differently, CFC.

    • Fluked the title - but, hey! well done, nonetheless
    • Dreadful and humiliating spiral down the table in following season
    • Good, but ultimately pointless run in the CL (first and last time)
    • Sacked greatest ever manager in club's history
    • Likely to lose all but Championship-grade players in the Summer
    • Likely to be fighting relegation for the foreseeable future

    I can assure you that very few teams, other than the likes of WBA, Stoke, Watford, Palace, etc would swap positions for that. I think at least half our Div have greater ambitions than that tbh.

    Quentin, Quentin, Quentin...

    ...do try to stop being such a twat ... CFC quoted facts ...you quoted Quentinisms ...and that is all ...do you realise how stupid you look claiming that a team that took the EPL title by a 10 point margin over a 38 game season was a fluke? ... probably only marginally more silly than the first time you dropped your trousers in front of your missus and her exclaiming "oh ...it's like a willy...only smaller" :)

    Your past four seasons have been incredible. No comparison in modern English football history.

    Don't let anyone take those memories away, mate. They are what sport is all about

    Hear! Hear!

    Don't try to make me out to be a villain in any of this!

    What Leicester did was remarkable - in the absolute fullest meaning of that word! Sneaking to the title at a time when every other major club was going into meltdown, and with only Spurs to carry even a remote hope of challenge.

    The fact that it was the greatest ever fluke in footballing history, any where in the World, is the whole reason why Foxes should treasure this memory for the rest of their lives. I'd actually go even further and state - openly and unreservedly here - that today's Foxes need to beat the pride into their unborn grandchildren, so that those little ungrateful snot-bags fully understand just how unbelievable an achievement it was! They need to be made to understand just how lucky they are, and that it will never, ever happen again.

    I'll be the very first to admit that. So, please, don't try and make out that I am bitter or twisted, because I am not.

    Third in a two horse race, Arsenal were Leicester's main challengers as the final table tells the story of the famous spud bottle job.

    This is what happens when you come crashing in with your size 22 boots and Maccy Dee outfit on. <laugh>
