Default Well done Leicester.

Well done to Leicester.

As a Blues fan and after a dire season it's nice to end on a good note ,helping a fellow blues team,ex Chelsea manager and stopping Spurs in the process .

I was hoping that they'd win it by stuffing Everton at home personally (being a Liverpool fan). Also, it would have been nice if they'd been in action on the day it was theirs.

However, that does nothing to detract from an amazing season. Really great to see an outsider win.

Wish I'd stuck a tenner on them back in August!

Unbelieveable season for Leicester. It was a great escape just avoiding relegation last year, now to win the Premier League is just crazy.

I hope they can manage the squad well moving forward financially, they'll make a shedload of cash out of winning the league and having champions league football next year - but there's going to be a lot of big money interest in players like Mahrez and Vardy who they need to hold on to. Some big wage rises in the club are going to happen if they want to hang onto their stars.

Totally agree and Hollywood calling ? Stallone to play Ranieri maybe ?

Don't know anyone who didn't want Leicester to win, including me, a Man United supporter. Played exciting football all season. Also really enjoyed Chelsea v Spurs last night, is 11 yellow cards in one game a record.

Not sure about 11 being a record, but I think nine for a single team is a premier league record.

Amazing season and doubt we'll see another like it any time soon. Well done Leicester!

As a gooner, my only consolation is that spurs didn't clinch it. Fingers crossed they fall apart now and we can still celebrate St. Totteringhams day!

Just think if you put a £100 bet on them to win the premier league back then .

12 got booked, so not sure if that makes any different to the record (9 Spurs, 3 Chelsea).
