I am not sure the media did much wrong, they just watched on with increasing incredulity like the rest of us.
I must admit I don't quite get this 'opened the floodgates' and 'victory for all the small clubs' stuff, it just smacks of straw clutching and looking for reflected glory to me.
This was a victory for Leicester by Leicester, it helps Stoke City not one iota.

Congrats Leicester, totally deserved.
I wish we had done better in this, one of the most open seasons I can remember for a long time.
Well done to that guy who bet £25,000 at 5000:1 He's now worth £125 million -assuming the betting co paid up or hasn't gone bankrupt, of course.

I refer the house to the comment God made earlier.
Quite like (and agree) the sound of that.

It may well be that it's a one off, but it's a victory for the small clubs that's nothing to do with reflected glory, but in that it gives hope that what we thought was a closed shop for the big clubs isn't, and that maybe we might just have a competitive league again, the way it used to be.
That may prove a forlorn hope, but it's hope all the same, and it wasn't there before this season.
And it's also nice to see an underdog victory. It's truly baffling some would prefer the usual procession of the same rich clubs winning everything. I wonder what these people actually get out of watching football.

Why would they sorry?
Most people thought they'd be relegated or struggle. It's nothing to say sorry about.

I'm happy a team outside the top 4 has won, but you're massively over egging the pudding here. Just because we're not in the top 4, it doesn't mean we're somehow shared in their success. We're not. I also know that the last part of your statement is directed at me, and tbh, there's two words I'd like to respond to that, but I better not. You know that it's utter arse gravy though and that's NOT the reason I'm not celebrating in the streets like you. I've said it before and I'll say it again, the King Power isn't that far away.

I wonder what these people actually get out of watching football." Sure seems like a remark directed at me and because of what? I'm not dancing in the streets because Robert Huth has won the league? I'm not wanking myself dry because Stoke haven't won the league but an ex Pulis player has? I mean, seriously, I'm a Stoke City supporter. I don't give two shits about Leicester City. I didn't before and I don't now. The only club I care about is Stoke City. I am happy for Robert Huth as a person. As an ex player, he gave everything for us and it's nice to see him go on and win the league, but did he win it for us? No and those deluding themselves into thinking he did, are utter fools. To suggest that Leicester City winning the league offers hope of a more competitive league is a non-sequitur. Football is a game of chance, luck and skill. They turned up and they put in the season of a lifetime, while other teams failed to perform and as such they won the league. To suggest that now makes it more competitive doesn't make sense. If other teams had performed, they wouldn't have been close. We only have a chance of winning the league, if we don't make the mistakes that we made this season. We're no closer to winning the league now, than last season, other than we're now in the knowledge that it can be done. I've said it already pal. The A50 and the M1. Ta-ra. |

The so called "ex-spurts" and pundits were predicting Leicester would crack at some point (including many on the board). What will all the experts be saying now? The first thing is "It can't be done again", which is simply stating the obvious, probably even if Chelsea/ManC/ManU had won it.
They have been proven wrong. In fact it was Spurs who cracked in the end, and ManC and Arsenal fell by the wayside long before the end.

Leicester won it for Leicester no-one else and no-one (i repeat NO-ONE regardless of how many times you try to lever that non-existent point into your posts) has even implied otherwise. However, a "smaller" club have shown the big boys that through hard work and a team ethic that anyone is capable of achieving far more in this league than ANYONE thought was possible for a club who don't spend tens of millions on players. therefore clubs of their size and the FANS of those clubs can have a bit of hope that it doesn't HAVE TO BE a closed shop as it always has been and maybe dream a bit about what they might do next year or the year after. seriously, what the fuck is your problem with that exactly???? |

I'm disappointed at the fact Stoke fans seem to be enjoying the whole "I was right, Huth won the title" bullshit when talking about this season. As supporters, we should fucking focus on our club, rather than celebrating Robert Huth's success at Leicester. Yes, I'm chuffed for him as a person, but why would I be ecstatic that Leicester have won the title? Why are people intent on revelling in our apparent failure? All so they can get a hard-on over saying our own players are shit, and Robert Huth is fucking Franz Beckenbauer. Captain Hindsight and his trusty companions. I'm a Stoke fan Mick, I support Stoke and our players. I heard a lot of piss poor fans booing at the end on Saturday. Fucking paper fans. As I've said, the A50, then the M1, they need to toddle off, seriously. |

Whether it's Leicester Manchester United or York City i'm not happy because it's not us Stoke City that aren't succesful. I am a fan of Stoke City i want us to win everything,other teams are our obstacle not a gentle reminder we can all win stuff

I am a fan of Stoke City i want us to win everything,other teams are our obstacle not a gentle reminder we can all win stuff not enjoying their success is one thing, no-one has as an issue with that. the people that are being slagged off for being bitter are those that have specifically done everything they can to disparage a fine achievement. that's Not simply a case of them just "not enjoying" it. if you read metalhead's posts i think it's clear there's a big difference between simply "not enjoying" and "being bitter" as he's gone out of his way to slag them off and throw around completely unfounded accusations on every thread he possibly can for weeks now however. he isn't simply "not enjoying" their success. he's on a bloody mission to belittle everything they've done and is now claiming he's a bigger Stoke fan than everyone else because of it and everyone who thinks Leicester have done well can "toddle off" down the A50......when it strays into those puerile, juvenile, anatagonistic and accusatory realms then i'm sorry, he's going to get shit from people by being so high and mighty about it and rightly so! what the hell ever happened to "Sportsmanship" for god's sake?????? |

I said they were revelling in the whole "Oh Huth has won the title, look at that" dick measuring bullshit that has been an absolute poison on this forum all season. There are fans who are clearly using this Leicester City thing to bash our own club, and if you can't see it, then you're not looking very hard. I've not put words in anyone's mouth. I've had people call me (and now a thread attacking me) all sorts of shit, all because I'm daring enough to express an opinion outside of the agreed agenda? There's nothing bizarre about my ire. I've simply stated a case that I'm happy for Robert Huth, but that doesn't make me happy for Leicester. Leicester should be congratulated for winning the title and I have done so in an appropriate fashion. I've not said I want us to somehow abstain from congratulating Leicester. They're worthy Champions, but I'm not going to sit here waxing lyrical about them. I focus on Stoke City, they're my club. it's a bit "I'm a bigger Stoke fan than you because i slag off Leicester". Oh, come off it Mick. You know that's not the point I'm making. I'm not saying I'm a better Stoke fan, but at the same time, there are some on here who seem to have an agenda purely focussed on attacking Stoke supporters and certain Stoke City players and staff member. You're now putting words in my mouth and what's more, they're complete horse shit. I haven't misrepresented anything. |

Whether it's Leicester Manchester United or York City i'm not happy because it's not us Stoke City that aren't succesful. I am a fan of Stoke City i want us to win everything,other teams are our obstacle not a gentle reminder we can all win stuff not enjoying their success is one thing, no-one has as an issue with that. the people that are being slagged off for being bitter are those that have specifically done everything they can to disparage a fine achievement. that's Not simply a case of them just "not enjoying" it. if you read metalhead's posts i think it's clear there's a big difference between simply "not enjoying" and "being bitter" as he's gone out of his way to slag them off and throw around completely unfounded accusations on every thread he possibly can for weeks now however. he isn't simply "not enjoying" their success. he's on a bloody mission to belittle everything they've done and is now claiming he's a bigger Stoke fan than everyone else because of it and everyone who thinks Leicester have done well can "toddle off" down the A50......when it strays into those puerile, juvenile, anatagonistic and accusatory realms then i'm sorry, he's going to get shit from people by being so high and mighty about it and rightly so! what the hell ever happened to "Sportsmanship" for god's sake?????? Bullshit, pure, unrefined, untainted, bullshit.... |

Not even Nostradamus could have predicted them to win the league. This win is a complete one-off, this doesn't open any doors for other clubs.
The only people this helps is the PL (They will now be advertising it as the title anybody can win) Media (they're all wanking off Leicester and it's selling a shit load of papers) and Leicester for the obvious reasons.

Bullshit, pure, unrefined, untainted, bullshit.... then why go on about "I'm A stoke fan , i support stoke..they can all toddle off down the A50" and all that arsegravy? your posts on this thread have been nothing short of embarrassing mate and, no offence, this response is no better. don't bother addressing any points whatsoever just insult? what the fuck has happened to the real metalhead, this one is acting like a spoilt kid throwing a fucking tantrum! if you can address the points raised then fair enough if you're just going to respond with those kinds of posts then i stick by my "childish" tag i gave you...you've kinda proved my point! |
