    .. still dreaming pal ... completely surreal ... but it's etched on the bloody trophy now, so it must be true <laugh> ... I'm 56 now and started watching them live from the age of 10 ... never expected to see days like these ... all the sweeter for knowing the club chose me (by birth) rather than me choosing a club based on it's success in my formative years ...

    ... tbf our foreign owners have been absolutely incredible and I think we have been extremely lucky in that regard ....

    ... but I do think our story has given a tremendous boost to every fan of every club outside the Sky4 in that it has shown that the unbelievable is possible and that a good team can, on occasion, eclipse the tremedous wealth of the expensively assembled mega rich clubs ...

    Wishing the Toon good luck next season ... chance to get rid of those not fully committed and come back all the stronger ... <ok>

    It'll not get old mate, next season you can dine out on it all you like, nobody can take it away from you now.

    The buzz for another doesn't go away though, you won't settle for one now, I've read Leicester fans saying they don't care what happens from here, but it doesn't work like that. This one will mean nowt to you if you're even within reach of another one, just like a junkie doesn't care about his last hit, it's the next one that counts <laugh>

    Villa need much more than money to fix their issues, Lerner would have put £50m in if he thought that would get them into the PL again and he'd have sold them then, he isn't stupid, that club needs much more.

    Thanks FF <ok>
    Enjoy it, it truly is amazing in the modern cash-obsessed game for a team to rise io and beat the top crop without simply buying every big name player to achieve it. Truly deserved.
    Best of luck again next season and beyond. Hope you can keep it going. <ok>

    I'd make them an offer they couldn't refuse. Buy Riviere and Gouf for £50m and get Colo, Sammy and Vuckic for FREE!
    No way they can ignore that. Everybody happy.Come on Charnley it's easy.

    It's not the fat mike way.
    We need to say that Sissoko is worth over £400m then knock 90% off.
