The 24 point deficit proved too great for Dan to overturn this week meaning Russell wins the fizzy pop league championship for the first time. Bailes and Mike finished somewhere near the bottom. Speaking of plummeting down the table, this week will go down in the history of football for another reason.
Leicester City fell into the third tier of English football for the first time in their 124 year history leaving Foxes fans distraught. Gary Lineker reportedly cancelled a round of golf on Monday and David Attenborough lost his temper with a Panda bear during filming in China. The bear, which was wearing Derby County colours and taunted Attenborough repeatedly, will make a full recovery. Leicester were 1 of only 9 clubs, including Manchester United, Liverpool and Arsenal, never to have played half their league games at stadiums little better than school playing fields.
Villain of the Season 2008
Predictably this seasons villain is Milan Mandaric. Speaking in the Times on Tuesday Mandaric was genuinely at a loss as to Leicester’s demise. “I have supported my managers and players all season” he claimed. Managers being the key word, Leicester have had 6 in the year Milan has been in charge. Ian Holloway will probably get sacked making that 7. Even if Holloway isn’t the right man to turn Leicester into a successful Divison 1 side he can get them out the graveyard that is Division 2.
“Get me Bryan Robson”
Hero of the Season 2008
They may play football like Bolton Wanderers but Stoke City have actually won games this season. So many games in fact they return to the top flight of English football for the first time since 1985 as runners up to West Brom. Nick Hancock said “We have had 2nd spot locked down for some time and the boys played their accelerator at the right time. It was some duel with Hull and Bristol City”.
