It is getting closer! A slight wobble last week end and Vardy has not helped the situation.....

Do we expect to hear the length of Vardy's ban today?

So because he is charged, he is guilty, unless he contests it, which he hasn't. If you contest it, and lose, the ban can be three games I think. Is that how it works?

Wonder whether they considered contesting it, so the (maybe) three-game ban is delayed, and he could have played at Old Trafford? But then probably not again this season ... (Unless found not guilty, which is unheard of).

So he'll play the last two games, although I think you can plead guilty and NOT get another one-game ban ...

A big win for them today. I expect Spurs to roll West Brom over fairly easily at home.

Next week is huge for both teams, with both having tricky away games. Spurs at Chelsea, who won't want to hand it to a Lonson rival and Leicester at United, who are in with a shout of 4th given recent results above them.

If they do win it Robbie Savage will somehow become even more insufferable

When Ranieri gives an interview, is anyone else waiting for him to say,

"Well, look. Zaphods just this guy, you know?"

But seriously this has become awesome. I so want Leicester to win it. It would cheer up what has been so far a fecking miserable year.

So are you saying it's all down to an infinite improbability drive?

So what do we reckon on the scores for the last games of the season for the foxes? And Spurs I guess.?

Chelsea and Utd looking scary for me. And I could see Spurs winning last few maybe draw with Chelsea?

Do you think if it goes to the wire and Chelsea have nothing to play for Hiddink will protect his stars and obviously potentially help Leicester beat Tottenham to the title? Or is that naughty?
I reckon Chelsea fans will be supporting Leicester that day!
Even some Chelsea players will be.

Asked if he expected any more twists in the title race, Fabregas said: 'Hopefully not. I don't want Spurs to win it - I want to be honest and clear.

'I would love, for what they've done for the rest of the season, I would love Leicester to win the Premier League,' he added.

Chelsea could easily beat Spurs next week. But then again Spurs could easily beat Chelsea next week.

Leicester can get something at OT - why not. They don't leak many goals, are well organised and so anything can happen. This isn't the United of old playing here - even though between gritted teeth I will admit they have done better of late.

Pretty much done and dusted following Spurs draw tonight. One win from their last three will do it now - they could well win it at Old Trafford in the next game.

Leicester can draw all three remaining games and still win.

Or put another way, if Tottenham don't beat Chelsea, Southampton and Newcastle, then it doesn't matter what Leicester do.

And I so hope Leicester do win it. As a Villa fan, I have never cheered Smethwick on as much as tonight; the yam yams did bosting winkclap

They only need two points to wrap up the title, so it's even simpler than that. Utd away might be tricky, but you should beat Everton at home in the next game - Vardy h/t anyone? biggrin Then Chelsea could be tough of course, but you've only lost three all season so why would you start rolling over now?....

This all assumes of course that Spurs win their remaining games - which they won't. Chelsea away next, could definitely lose that, even a draw hands LCFC the title. Then they have Southampton visiting and a relegation battling Newcastle on the last day. I said ages ago it was going to happen. Today it's done, 100%

As a Wolves fan wanting Albion to score is absolutely alien to me but I yelled 'get in!' when the baggies scored tonight.

I appreciate that the Leicester fans will take it quite happily, but it would be a shame for the nuetral if the title is won on Monday night at Stamford Bridge.

It would be great to see them do it at Old Trafford or back at home the following weekend.
