S6M27: Pro Rata debuts

So a truncated programme last week saw the shock of all shocks. Crystal Palace won. Less surprisingly, Chelsea won. and Sunderland lost. Bournemouth continued their difficult second season syndrome with defeat to WBA and surprisingly, Harry Kane beat a woeful Stoke.

The War of the Roses finished all square on Humberside, whilst the inverse of the game of the season was rather dull - early and late goals punctuated by Antonio's red card.

And then to Leicester. Fittingly, in the city where Richard III died (and was dug up, and reinterred), Shakespeare was in charge after Ranieri had allegedly Othellost the dressing room. Quite a few of the players have now come out and denied that they had been involved in a dressing room coup, or a loss of Tempests. Still, they rallied against a distracted Liverpool and managed to Mac-the-betht of a bad situation. As the now unemployed Merchant of Venice (Rome but who actually cares) may have remarked phlegmatically.... All's well that ends well...

That's pseduy enough to be Henry Winter's Tale. In fairness, it started off badly, but then just became a Comedy of Errors. Hamlet to believe that it's As You Like It...

 I'm not even sorry. If anything, I'm Pericles with myself. Blame Andy Zaltzman
