Leicester City FC

Leicester City's Premier League win at 5000/1 had worse odds than Piers Morgan becoming the next Arsenal manager at 2000/1.

Well done Leicester!

Hearty congratulations to Leicester on their incredible achievement! But did former Leicester player Robbie Savage have a few celebratory beers before his Match of the Day appearance last night, or perhaps that was emotion making some of his words seem a bit slurred?

Greece were a 150/1 shot for the 2004 Euros. A big surprise, but not really comparable to Leicester coming home at 5000/1.

Congrats Leicester

Probably Burnley might be given the odds of 5000/1 to win it next season - or maybe Brighton

Was a memo round ladbrokes that maximum from now on is 1000/1 on football

Finally! Two days on and its still sinking in. Roll on Saturday and one mother of a party in the city

If it i's true mate they're being bloody tight fisted skinflints - taking the fun out of football betting!! If they couldn't take the hits on Leicester winning, they shouldn't have been so bloody absent minded with the price!!

I would not be surprised you got odds above 5000/1 on any team winning the premier when they aren't fancied from now on and wouldn't be surprised if other firms follow suit!!

once more I say bloody skinflints!!

probably it would take the equivalent of either Inverness or Ross County or St Mirren I guess to do the Same in Scotland?

Has somebody who is not overly keen on football but likes to keep and eye on Derby, so from a rams 'supporter' (though it might still stick in the throat a bit) bloody well done, that's damned impressive.
