With barely one third of the season left, we could experience something that has never happened in the history of the premiership.
A team that has never won the title since the inception of the premiership, superseding the old division 1, is on the verge of doing so.
Out of the current top 4, 50% chance of this happening as Leicester and Spurs would be savoring their first title, providing they do win it
This would inject bit of magic into the premiership, like Atletico Madrid's win did to the La Liga recently.
It would mean a fresh winner of the title and with it, it would give hope to the other clubs who have yet to register the feat.
For this reason, I am plumping for Spurs titleship, and if not a Leicester to get the title.
Sorry, the other two clubs have already won it.
Let the magic into the premiership

Yep...which is why if they were involved in the title it would be 2/5.
Talking about a new team winning it I believe.

Yeah I re-read it a couple of times origionally...but the Prem was 3 years old then, not exactly ground breaking to be the first in that time frame.
Obviously Leicester would be the biggest shock, but Spurs would also be a huge jump and a massive result.
Look at all the media hype Liverpool had a couple of years ago...compare that to the very understated hype Spurs are getting (although starting to pick up)...any team breaking the usual winners mold would be great for the Prem.

Crazy idea isn't it!!
I don't care about the justification, throwing any game to kose, especially one that sends you out of a competition is absolutely nuts!!

This goes for every team that has ever won it, at least for their first time.
Manchester United won the first one, and they hadn't won a league in 27 years, Blackburn also won it once and regardless of it being early days, it was a first for them, Arsenal are the only team to have won the premiership without a large gap between titles (their recent gap being their longest for some time I believe) but even their first time would qualify, Leicester or Tottenham will just be joining them as well as Chelsea and City as teams that have won it for their first time since it's inception and if you do it will be well deserved, but not exactly magic.
