As a neutral, why would anyone not want to see Leicester win the title?
To see Leicester win it would be brilliant, but Arsenal have always been the other team whose results I look for. But far more important than either of those two winning it is seeing the Albion competing in it next season. So a Man City/Albion double would be great!

I do BUT they did CHEAT in their progress to get to the top. Would not mind Spurs winning it either.

We have a go at Palace for only paying 2p in the £, but in 2003 Leicester didn't pay any of their debts. When they got promoted from the Championship recently, they broke FFP with a 'marketing loan/investment. It seems cheats do prosper.

The best part is the complete absence of Manchester United in this title race. And whilst Leicester are the obvious pick when it comes to wanting to see something COMPLETELY unexpected I actually think each of the teams in the running have their own story that would make it a good result for the neutral.
Arsenal's long run without a title under Wenger would be a nice example of how chopping managers every time you fail to win something isn't necessarily the best route to success.
Man City winning as Pellegrini is axed would be a real way to send the popular Chilean out in style, particularly if he wins any of the other four trophies they're also in the running for. Would leave Pep to come in and follow up with all to lose.
Spurs winning would be interesting simply because it is SO long since they've done anything.
Best Premier League season in many a year. And if Albion can finish on a high then it could very well be the best Championship season too

Certainly NOT Spurs the dirty ****ing cheats.

Exactly this! And they were rewarded with an England u21 international too( or was it a full international when Wembley was being rebuilt). Lots of Midlands businesses went bust when the ground was built! So do we forgive them and say well done plucky Leicester?

Agree, but have still voted Leicester as it gives hope to clubs like ours, albeit quite remote hope. Probably not since Forest in 1978 has a real underdog been in such an unexpected position.

From the available list it would have to be Leicester.
Sick to death of the "closed shop" that has been the top of the PL.
It so many ways it is vitally important to the long term viability of football as the sport we know (or at least remember) that the status quo is upset at every opportunity.

Leicester - some dodgy financial episodes in their recent past - doing brilliantly well, but the DID cheat to get there. However, I'm pleased for Leo / the Vardy story is incredible / Ranieri is superb, so on balance, I'm still rooting for them (even though its a little tainted).
Spurs next - like Pochetino, love how they play, love the inclusion of 5/6 young England players.
Then Arsenal - still breath-taking to watch when they get it right, and like how Wenger stubbornly clings to his principles. If they hadn't had such ridiculous bad luck with injuries they could be ten points clear now.
City, I actually don't mind either, despite the way they are bankrolled. Love watching Aguero / Silva / Nasri when they click, and Pellegrini seems a very honourable man.
The fact that Chelsea and United are not in with a shout is lovely.
