Welldone Leicester

[scot in exile]

Probably the greatest sport upset ever just happened, with Chelsea and Spurs playing to a draw in a great derby game leaves Leicester eight points clear with only six points to play for.
At the start of the season they were 5000/1 odds to win the league this is like a triple A team winning the World series no in fact a High school team winning the World series, WELL DONE LEICESTER.

(the 1980 USA mens hockey team were 1000/1)

What a great story. I'm a die hard Liverpool fan but, like many others, adopted Leicester half way through the season. I've watched just about every game they've played since. What a fantastic team they are to watch. They remind me of my younger days when the players played for the pride of the team rather than the prima donnas we have now playing for individual glory (don't get me started with Ronaldo) and, of course, $$$$$$£££££££. Too bad the likes of Vardy and Mahrez will now get sucked into that mentality.

Odds like that make one wish one had bet on them at the beginning of the season

One fan put twenty pounds on them at 5000/1 with about eight games left the bookie offered to buy back the ticket for 30,000 pounds the fan accepted if he had kept his bottle he would have picked up 100,000 pounds.
