Great to see both managers showing passion on the touchline.

I understand you have your irrational hatred of Leicester but some of your criticisms seem to just be playing to the gallery now. I have a hatred of some teams or players, but will still credit them if they do something special whilst still wishing them nothing but bad luck and bad results.

It's a shame as your team have been nearly universally praised this season by outsiders or at least respected for what they have achieved even by bitter rivals.
No "playing to the crowd" from me i'm afraid, it's not my style. Yes, I have a sense of humour that's generally not that appropriate for a text-based message board because it almost always turns out that it's just me who gets the joke but pointing out that Leicester have had luck on their side this season is, in my humble opinion, just pointing out the obvious (injury time penalty anyone?).

I certainly wouldn't say that they've got where they've got through luck alone because that would be stupid, but to gloss over the fact they've had a very favorable season with regards to injuries, fixtures, penalties e.t.c.. would also be stupid IMO.

I think you're on a wind up. I have no idea what having their fixture list cleared actually refers to
No wind up. What I meant by "cleared" was them being in a position where they only had league games to play.

That was less than a penalty than the one not given

Big comeback for Leicester

Ha ha, no way was that a penalty. Moss bottled it at the last moment.

West Ham fans must be so conflicted right now, they hate Spurs more than anyone else.
As a West Ham fan, not conflicted at all! I want my team to qualify for Europe and win every time they play, couldn't give a monkeys about Spurs. Why would I want my team to lose and jeopardize that?

The Vardy Cards and The Penalty Decisions were the correct calls, nothing to do with who the ref is
If we look for consistency then the penalty wasnt the correct call, they are usually not given.

Perhaps things have righted themselves following the denial of the clear penalty for the Huth holding.

2-2 it finishes at the end of an incredibly dramatic match.

Leicester 8 points clear, reduced to 5 if Spurs win tomorrow.

Amazing point. As good as a win for Leicester.

Carroll can say bye bye to the Euros after giving away that pen.

Very very very soft.

Fourth game in a row in the league where a sending off, disallowed goal or penalty got in the way of West Ham getting all three points.

Very soft. Leicester's good luck hasn't quite drained away yet then.

Moss has managed to end that game hated by everyone. Who'd be a referee?

Ref has had a 'mare

Vardy booked then makes the most of minimal contact = red card and suspension,

Reid booked then makes the most of minimal contact = penalty and goal.
Not to mention Robert Huth having an arm around his neck and being wrestled to the floor..right in front of the ref !
Oh well, he's evened things up. Leicester penalty and the equaliser.

That sums up refereeing these days, no consistency for the big decisions at all, its not an easy job by any means , but to make clear mistakes on big decisions isnt good enough, imo they need more help from TV
