    ... I'm lost for words ...

    ... arguably the greatest ever sporting underdog story ...

    ... just having a quiet beer now and thinking of the old man who took me down to the first game I saw aged 10 ... he'd seen 4 post war cup final defeats ... must have been heart breaking ... neither him nor I could have dreamt of this ... I won't be alone in that or in having thoughts of the generations of City fans that never got to see days like these ...

    ... enjoy it lads and lasses ... nobody can take this away now .... it's done ..... our name on THAT trophy and in the record books ...

    Forza Claudio Ranieri .... Forza Leicester City Football Club ... please don't let me wake up :)

    It still doesnt seen real. I think watching Wes Morgan lift the trophy on Saturday is when it will really sink it

    Its all too much to believe atm

    When you think about it , Leicester had 4 losses. Now you would think that is an amazing feat in itself to ensure the title this season .... 4 losses this season .
    BUT those 4 losses aren't just from this season , it includes Leicester's final 9 games last season .
    4 losses in 45 games . Leicester won 7 from they're final 9 games last season , with a single loss , to ensure survival to make this season even possible .
    These last 45 games , leading up to and including this Premier League title , is the single greatest sporting event I've ever witnessed and I'm a 64 year old sports fanatic .
    Well done to Leicester , her fans and you personally FosseFilberto.... Pretty fuking cool man .

    I still cant get my head around it. Its just surreal. Never in my wildest dreams was this possible. But as are the Premier League Champions
