| 0:31.4 | Hi, I'm Robbie Earl, and welcome to the Two Robbie's Radio Show, sponsored by Land Rover. |
| 0:36.1 | It's been a unique Premier League season so far with Leicester City. |
| 0:39.5 | Yes, little Leicester City leading the way. |
| 0:42.0 | So as a tribute to their form so far this season, |
| 0:44.6 | we're going to do an hourly special on what's given the nation that foxy feeling. |
| 0:49.4 | Robbie Musto, try and put into context, mate. |
| 0:52.1 | What Lester have done so far this season? |
| 0:55.2 | It's very difficult, Rob, because we're witnessing something very, very special, very, very unique, something incredibly unthinkable. |
| 1:05.1 | And every time I think about Lesser City in the Champions League, potentially the Champions of the Barclays Premier League. |
| 1:12.6 | It's just remarkable. It's insane. I mean, with all the money that's available, the way that the Premier League has developed for big clubs to be even bigger in many respects. |
| 1:22.6 | And yet, this team that did a miraculous job of staying in the division last season |
| 1:28.9 | when facing relegation squarely in the face |
| 1:31.4 | and how they've developed with not that much money spent into a team |
| 1:35.9 | that's on the brink of winning the Barquis Premier League |
| 1:38.4 | is it is the biggest football in bigger story in football in England |
| 1:42.6 | and maybe the biggest sport story of all time. That's how shocking it is. That's how amazing it is. And we have to wait and see how it's going to finish out, but they've got an amazing chance to make it happen. Well, I always think the bookies, you know, the bookmakers don't often get it too, too wrong. The odds for Leester, winning the Premier League title at the start of the season, |
| 2:01.7 | when they're 5,000 to 1. |
| 2:17.2 | And I have to say, Rob, I'm not sure I'd even put a dollar or a pound of my money on that at that time. That's how far out they were. I mean, yes, they survived. But then Claudio Raniari comes into the football club, Rob. I know in a preview show we did at the beginning of the season, |
| 2:19.6 | we both tip Lester to go down. |
| 2:51.5 | And I said that Claudio Ragnieri was the wrong type of fit for Lester City because he'd never worked in the basement of leagues. He's worked with top-end players. He's been in Europe. He's worked with some great players in Italy. And I'm thinking, well, this doesn't look a good fit to me. I can't see how this is going to work. Now, maybe what Lanyeri knew was, yes, I only work with top players and I'm going to make less the top players because they've virtually been in the top four from the start of the season and then leg the lead for most of that time. So somehow this guy's going to the football club, Rob, and taking them to another level. I can't quite put my finger on what he's done. Well, firstly, I was the |
