Couldn't agree more, TBWAH the decent lad who is a Spurs fan did say on here a few days ago Leicester fans were the worst for being the "only" team to have won the league, you can see what he meant. Champions of England, you'll never sing that ? You can get away with it at Hartlepool but it's a bit rich against a team that's done it 3 times, 3 times more than you have for that matter. It probably didn't help them when everyone joined in with Don't Worry......the Championship!s gonna be alright and everyone standing when they tried taunting Stand up if you're going down. They might have been a decent bunch in the pub but as a group inside the ground, first class wankers. They have very short memories - they forget that it isn't too long that they were playing Championship football themselves and that they broke FPP rules to get promoted and that they were responsible for the 10 point penalty for going into administration. W****s League One with us too

As I said, the guys in the pub were very different. They talked about the times in the Championship and League One without embarrassment and said how much they had enjoyed being in the Championship and that they didn’t feel an established prem team yet.

How many games have they both played, I’d be amazed if Vardy has played a “lot” more games (for similar reasons that you’re surprised that Vardy has scored more goals, because me too!) Lineker played 190 odd games and Vardy 230 odd. So Linekar probably still the better striker as per actual memory, but surprisingly little in it. Although Linekar benefited from playing for them at a time when only 4 teams were stifling the rest of the division. It’s odd because Vardy live looks pretty average. He runs around a bit bit he doesn’t have superior technique or athleticism like a real world class striker might do.

He has raw pace that gets him in behind, and Leicester play direct to accommodate him. He doesn't need skill, just finishing.

And yet on first hand evidence he doesn’t seem particularly special with his finishing either...I’m sure there was a couple of times at the weekend including one on one (albeit from an angle) where I’d expect a “world class” striker to be scoring a goal.

Champions of England, you'll never sing that ? They were singing "Champions of England, you made us sing that". It's a song about the chairman who died in the helicopter crash.
