So, hours away from it transpiring the voters have not cooperated in making the elections exciting. They gave us Richmond, we're probably not due another exciting one for awhile.
Here's an interesting question: Which of last season's top 8 had the best record among those teams?
Surely the Arse
Double over Leicester Beat City home drew away Two draws w Spurs Two draws w Liverpool Beat Utd home lost away Double over Everton Drew Soton home lost away
6 6 2?
West Ham not Everton. Arsenal were top of the top 6. You can play around with it on Statto:
Note just how terrible City were against the other top teams.
How's it going for Arsenal in the CL? At least you also got an away goal ;-)
That was Man City, btw. Yes, we've done our usual thing in Europe - though at least I didn't waste £350 going to Munich. Winning the group did us no good whatsoever.
Still, at least we're not crashing out of Europe on a Thursday night!
Yep. Schadenfreude all round! Such is the pleasure of football.
Do you want 5/2 for £20 Con bt UKIP in Stoke?
Is that a general offer ?
Not really, I offered it to him ages ago. What price do you think it should be then?
UKIP 4.3 / Tories 15.5 midpoints Betfair at the moment. Seeing as that is pretty much 100% of the market without Labour, just divide them ?
Which yields 3.6 ?
I make it 2/7 & 7/2 off that?
23.2/29.6=78.3% chance of UKIP 21.7% chance of Con
On Ranieri, I I think we have to respect the views of @foxinsoxuk - he sees them every week, we don't. I saw Leicester at the Emirates in Feb 15 and confidently predicted that they'd stay up (didn't bet on it, mind). Maybe it's a bit unfair on Ranieri, but clearly something isn't right and I think they've probably made the right decision.
Has Keith Vaz engineered a big story to deflect from labour tomorrow morning.
Either way disgraceful and I hope they go down as a result
There is no loyalty left in this world...
I am sad, but it is the right decision. Our position in the League is poor and our form worse. The performances against Swansea and Millwall were pathetic. Last night only luck and good goalkeeping kept Sevilla from scoring 4 or more. The second half was better, at moments looking like last years team. It was not enough.
The window is closed, there are a dozen games to go in the League, Claudio was the only thing possible to change. But I am sad, Claudio is a true gentleman, not a man to fire up the team and keep us up to rebuild.
It's a disgusting decision. Repulsive. You've gone from most-loved team to most-hated.
If you got relegated, who fucking cares. You're a minor team. The gent Ranieri gave you the greatest possible moment EVER. No one will ever equal what he did for you.
It's quite quite emetic. I hope Leicester are relegated to the Scottish premier league and that famine strikes your city for the next seven years in a row.
I don't care if other supporters hate us, in fact I like it.
Football is about bloodyminded partisanship and tribalism.
I enjoyed League One a few years back, and the CL this year. Other teams supporters cannot know that joy and pain of the rollercoaster. They are bus wankers.
The result is pretty consistent with the other polls with Le Pen clearly in front and a very close fight for second place. The Fillon camp will be pleased to have a poll showing him just in front , as IFOP and Opinion way show the reverse.
The bookies are making Labour odds more and more likely each minute to take Copeland, but all the talk on here suggests they have lost....am i missing something?
The man is great at expectations management. But what is he talking about? The 'political establishment' has let the people down, but if Labour lose in Copeland it will be to the governing party, so the people will apparently disagree.

Macron will likely have got a small bounce from Bayrou but longer term I doubt it makes much difference, it will be very close between Macron and Fillon as to who makes the runoff

too close to call I think. Both parties will be 1/3 at this rate.

Nah. I have spent my stake money for this month, but thanks for the offer.

Well, I'm pretty sure the bookies moved towards Labour in the last few minutes before the exit poll on GE2015 night.... #omens

No, it's just WRONG. Morally wrong. Really and genuinely dismaying for the average non-partisan fan.
UGH.
Give him the whole season, if you get relegated, so be it. Then rebuild. Part company on decent terms.
His achievement was so massive it deserved something special. Fuck Leicester. YUK.
If Leicester go down I don't see them coming straight back up. There is no room for sentiment in this game. I didn't see the game live, but that diamond he played at Southampton was a complete mess - so he has certainly contributed to some of the problems.

The odds haven't changed that much all day Tories were 2/5 at lunchtime, right now they're 4/9 on Betfair. Nobody really knows who's won at this stage.
"The first few ballot boxes have arrived at Fenton Manor for the Stoke-on-Trent Central by-election count. They'll be coming here from all 45 polling stations across the constituency over the next 15 minutes or so.
Yes. They are 30ft high robots built to track and kill mutants. They were built out of clay and fired in special kilns on the outskirts of Stoke. They were especially popular during Chris Claremont's run in the 70's, when Wolverine was enlisted into the Weapon X programme of Stoke City Council, designed to target recalcitrant traffic wardens and in extremis act as a kebab holder. Alan Moore's later reinvention, relocating the series to Northampton for Jean Grey and the "Dark Red-necked Egret" saga, was not entirely successful...

Really? I'd like to lay them both then, thank you very much!

Relegation isn't that bad. The fear is worse than the reality. I know I have seen it twice from the PL and once from the Championship. The team starts winning games, the fanbase is slightly reduced but more fanatical, and it is possible to get tickets. Promotion does beat it mind you!

Ask not for whom the bell tolls Nuttall and Corbyn. It tolls for thee.
The plods and the CPS clearly don't.
If they somehow win, then Champers till April.
But, if it all goes to pot, I'll still have a lovely pup (who is sleeping through the night already) and a bookcase full of Robert Peel's books

For the really old timers among us can anyone remember the reaction when the Conservatives gained Brighouse in 1960 ?

But, terrible for Labour, if true, the worst result for the principal opposition for 138 years.

Always overestimated.

Sure
I win £50 if Tories beat UKIP, lose £20 if they don't ?

It feels like Tories in a clear (but distant) second, but we'll see.
And for all the other YouTube videos you've uploaded.
ITV reports the Tories are confident of gaining Copeland and that Labour are hoping to edge Stoke Central.
