    Spurs blew it tonight and just seemed to lack that conviction to go for it, WBA did their usual effort but I reckon we gave them a harder than Spurs did.

    I've just noticed if Leicester and Tottenham both draw this weekend (at Old Trafford and at Stamford Bridge) it'll be all over on Monday night. That would put Leicester on 77 and 'Spurs on 70 with two games to go. If Leicester were to win at Old Trafford, of course, it'll be over even sooner!

    Don't fancy Leicester to win at Man Utd as it happens.

    Might well be another twist yet.

    Can you see 'Spurs winning at the Bridge though? That's the one I'm looking forward to. Humdinger or what! I can't see Chelsea coming laden with gifts for Tottenham, can you?

    All the bollocks about it not being over, Leicester need 3 points to guarantee the league title, if they still need them 3 points on the last day against Chelsea, Chelsea will give them all 3 no problem, if it means stopping Spurs winning the league.

    It's over, Leicester are champions as far as I'm concerned.

    Need you lot to beat them at the weekend now! A nice smart hammering so they still have work to do and Spurs still have a chance! Not that I think it'll matter - Clawing back 5 points in 3 games would've been tough - clawing back 7 against a team that doesn;t lose many? Almost impossible!

    There's a lot about that Spurs game that Newcastle have to play, but Newcastle are capable of beating them anyhow, they've already dusted them this season away from home. Anything can happen, especially now Alli will be banned.

    You've got to take care of your own fate, I wouldn't be relying on Spurs last game of the season no matter what, a squad full of internationals who are about to jump on a plane to France, they'll probably treat it like a friendly (if the title race is over of course).

    Agree with the above, for me we need to match Newcastle's results. Personally I think they will win 2 and draw 1, which means we need to win 2. It could come down to goal difference. I think they may only get a point this weekend.

    People said the same of Liverpool when Blackburn needed a win at Anfield to keep the title away from Man United. I think Leicester will win it anyway like, but not because Chelsea will let them win.

    Also, what did WBA have to play for against Spurs, I think Tottenham will go to Sid James park to win, they won;t want their season to fritter out with a defeat.
