Well it was fun while it lasted. Just need to hold on to second now and beating Chelsea would be good.

Pulis fist pumping in the background - he said he wanted Leicester to win the title and West Brom certainly played as if it was their cup final. Now we have to play Chelsea playing their cup final and quite possibly Newcastle too if they can still stay up. Blagh.

West Brom took points off Leicester weeks back on a night where almost everyone around them fucked up. Spurs only have themselves to blame tonight. Should have been out of sight during that 20min period in the first half.

Yeah, I don't agree with that at all. Tony Pulis sets his sides up like WBA played, especially in the second half. Spurs failed to take their chances and West Brom came back strongly after the break. They could easily have won the match in the end. They are no pushovers, they've been in midtable for a while now on similar points to Chelsea and Everton.

I've spent most of the last month or two looking down and chalking off the lowest position we can finish. If we win tonight, barring a ludicrous swing in goal difference, we'll finish top 4. However anything lower than second now will be a huge disappointment.

Crikey o blimey, how empty is that glass

You can't blame West Brom for their tactics. They are a hard team to play and they have the right to play however they want. Tony Pulis is a good manager, there's a reason mid/lower half table teams always were interested in him as you know what you'll get with him.

If anything its Tottenham's fault for failing to take advantage of their first half performance and looking anxious and failing to respond to West Brom in the second half. 

But don't worry you're not the only team who's had the mighty Tony Pulis effectively kill off your title chances <_<

Last night Leicester were essentially guaranteed the title. I always said we weren't going to win all of our remaining games! It stings a little now, but 2nd is still tremendous - and we have so much to build on going forward. #1 priority in the summer has to be getting Poch tied down to a new bumper-deal.
