You forgot while living in a country that complains participation trophies are too politically correct.

If Tottenham had won, Leicester would have just won it when they beat or drew with Everton this weekend, since Everton are shite
>>
>>67302845
pretty sure you should have to win a certain game yourself to win the league. what other teams do shouldnt have any impact on who is the best in the league
>>
FA fucked up

All games should start at the same time on Sunday in the last 5 or so rounds. There's no excuse for a fucking Money game.

Leicester have won 22 """themselves"""

>What other teams do shouldn't have any impact on who is the best in the league

Are you developmentally stunted?
>>
>>67303125
>pretty sure you should have to win a certain game yourself to win the league
Leicester have won 22 games, drawn 11 and only lost 3 this season
>>
>other teams decide whether or not you win the championship
>either team could just lose on purpose or try to make it a draw so you win or lose
>you have no control over it
>>
>>67303125
its a league system ffs, its about points, tottenham losing today meant that they being second in the league table could not be champions anymore because of the points difference between them and leicester

the league does not aply a knock out stage or playoffs system, there are domestic cups for that
>>
>>67303502
>>you have no control over it
There are two more games to play yet and Leicester needed all of 1 point to win regardless of what Tottenham did.
>>
>>67303502
>either team could just lose on purpose or try to make it a draw so you win or lose
Except Leicester was never going to lose the league based on this one game, the only possible scenarios would be either they clinched the title or nothing changed
>>
>>67303502
>you have no control over games you aren't playing in
>I don't have the mental capacity to understand a league system

>>67303174
thats pretty much what happens in any league bar e'p'l
>>
>>67302850
Maybe if you pussy faggots competed, you could try to be world champs too.
>>
>>67303714
Well we didn't play any of your teams, but your "world champions" didn't even play half of them.

So we'll do the only realistic thing and just call ourselves Northern Hemisphere champions and forget playing at all.
>>
>>67302958
That's so your oil daddies can't buy all the best players you stupid faggot

>>67302851
This argument only proves how stupid that type of system is though.

>>67303125

>what other teams do shouldnt have any impact on who is the best in the league
