    As much as it's fun to poke Spurs fans, it would have been nice to have had the opportunity to bottle it. <whistle>

    Did they ever get any closer than 5 points off the top in the second half of the season?

    Small mind syndrome.

    Spurs were the only team challenging Leicester. The rest of the teams bottled it months ago.

    Spurs fans are proud of their team and look ahead to next season <ok>

    It's not Spurs's job to paper over the cracks of the clubs that haven't got a decent team the fans enjoy watching week in week out.

    Would have been a bit more interesting if any of the Sky4 had justified their money throwing and huge wages by fielding half decent teams.

    As I've already said, better than Utd and their £300mill. More than Leicester have spent in their entire history!

    You can keep quoting that (incorrect) stat. It won't get you another 7 points!

    To be fair, really small club mentality to be proud of failure simply because bigger clubs have also failed.

    Even smaller mentality to criticize the only club that's at least given Leicester a run for their money!

    Although you haven't really have you?

    You're celebrating being 7 points behind them.

    I don't consider that a great achievement. How is not accepting failure a small club mentality?! Straighten up fella!

    Well, I obviously have a small amount of bias, but I think Leicester and Spurs fans should soak it in.
    Much like Liverpool's 2nd place finish in 2014, I feel this was a flash in the pan, and business as usual will be resumed again next season, or if not, the season after.

    Problem is, clubs like City, Arsenal, United and Chelsea, when they **** it up, they can spend another £150m till they get it right.
    Arsenal will still have **** bird Wenger in charge, and its looking increasingly like United will have Van Gaal in charge, but both clubs will spend a lot in the summer.
    Chelsea and City are changing managers and will do likewise.

    I have a feeling Spurs and Leciester will be out of the top 4 next season.
