    Can't believe people think that was justice after the way Watford have carried on this season.

    This was surely more dramatic than the Brentford/Doncaster game - Watford's goal at the end was crucial in changing the outcome, whereas Doncaster didn't actually need to score in their game as a draw would have taken them up anyway.

    Although sickening, Brentford still have a shot at promotion too. Leicester's chance has gone for the season.

    Agree with this. Cheating and diving all season. Would've been funny if Knockaert tucked away the penalty.

    I agree .. but during my life I have learnt that the idea of 'justice' is just an illusion .. how philosophical .. it's only football

    Football is un fricking believable. I begrudge saying it but well done Watford. Hope Brighton spank you.

    SCP will do something special if given time and money. If he doesn't get either here he'll get it at Leicester. Still confident of him being our manager this time next year. Think the man has more class than to leave a job half done.
  • Never let a left-footer take a penalty in a high pressure situation - history is littered with failures, often saves to keeper's left. Gray, Rix, Brady, Pearce, Waddle, Robben, Knockaert...and er, the hundreds of others.

    No coincidence that German sides never use left-footed penalty takers - even left-back Brehme in the 1990 WCF, when Matthaeus bottled it, used his right!

    good spot .. mind you, I always thought that Brehme was just playing the role of arrogant Hun .. like Ronnie O'S taking pots left handed .. but he's not a hun of course

    That was a terrible penalty, way worse than Yann's attempt.

    Say what you want about Watford and their theatrics...this breakaway goal was absolutely outstanding.

    French...AND his name starts with a K!! How many signs did Leicester want!!

    Great game. The two extremes of emotion for those fans, both of which we know well.

    P.S. Would gladly see him join our own Special K next season!

    WOW!

    What drama and whilst I didn't get on the pitch that was probably the most crazy minute or so of football I've seen live.

    Just summed up the Championship really.

    Need to finish the job at Wembley thoug (and start saving up looking at the prices!)

    Why should attendance have anything to do with why a team should/shouldn't get promoted
