I'm quite familiar with the proper pronunciation. I've been a fan for a long time now. I am always mindful of new fans of my team, so, I'm glad to help them understand the proper pronunciation.

My first game was a thrilling nil to nil tie. I have been hooked ever since. Sure, the final score was nil to nil, BUT, they almost scored a goal quite a few times.

LEICESTER ARE CLOSING IN ON THE CHAMPIONSHIP. Pre season odds for them to win it all? 5,000 to 1.

Tottenham's slim chances of overhauling Leicester are fading.

I do apologize to you if I seem condescending, but, we are evolved football fans here. We use only Received Pronunciation.

But seriously, I agree with you. The newspaper article probably got it wrong with the "er" ending instead of "aa".

Can't even see them re-qualifying for the CL. This is so crazy.

How many Fernando Torreses did their whole team cost?

I'm sure it was less than a Torres and a Carroll.

"Ranieri is too old to change mentality and at 60 years old he only won a bunch of small trophies.


I never said that I am amazing, but I know that it is not my fault that in 2004, when I replaced Ranieri at Chelsea and I asked why they replaced Ranieri they told me that they wanted to win, and with him that would have never happened."

Did I read correctly somewhere that the odds of this happening were 5,000 to 1?
