    Speaking of cheating - as MotD2 showed last night, Leicester would never have got

    near winning the title if the authorities had cut down on grappling at set-pieces a year earlier. And poor old Stoke - apparently not being able to constantly cheat is costing them points

    It's quite a relief that Leicester's win last year is being confirmed as a blip, a freak event, an oddity, a one off. I hate gallant underdogs.

    In an ideal world, the relegation places would be taken by Stoke, West Ham and Leicester.

    Yes, I would dearly love to see West Ham and their massive, taxpayer-funded stadium languishing in the lower leagues.

    Well, the reason underdogs are underdogs is because they're ****, but because they have everyone's sympathy, they are enabled to eallow in their ****ness and try to make up for it by kicking better teams.

    Fúck 'em, don't respect them for being ****, respect them when they're good.

    The instinct that leads to a fondness for underdogs is exactly the same instinct that leads to communism. FACT.

    Looks like we have a few Manu fans in the making here. Love Mourinho and hate underdogs

    Better than haughty, hubristic arrogance though, ain't it?

    Haughtiness and arrogance have their place, if they simply mean an acknowledgement of how good one is.

    A recognition that one must fight for every ball because one is not good enough not to also has its place, imo.
