Ask Rio
Well, don't. He was too busy wading into the distance until he was no more than a speck of fecal matter onn the horizon landscape, all witnessed from the frame of an ajar bathroom window with the blind still wafting on its rail.
Fact is, everyone loves an underdog story – just look how many Hollywood movies there are about them – and Leicester's title win last season was news worldwide, even the news in the USA carried the story... which was all great PR for the Premier League. "Look", it says "anyone really can win the title... fairytales do come true!" The PL exploited their win for their own gain, used it as a selling point – so can you imagine what damage it would do if it was exposed that there was wholesale doping going on? It's in everyone's best interest if it's kept in the closet with the rest of the skeletons.

Let it go.
Lance Armstrong had a small team helping aid him with doping and keeping people quiet in a sport where doping seriously enhances a INDIVIDUAL endurance race only, not uncommon for bike racing
Leicester Football Club have 25-30 players in the squad, plus reserves, plus the manage, coaches, physio's etc , we're talking hundreds of people. And they are ALL involved are they ? They are all keeping quiet ? In a age of social media. All stemming from ... They run alot and avoided Alot of Injuries ?? Leicester used 23 players last season, the same number as Spurs. Stats also show other team actually ran more than them.
They got lucky that Man U were awful, Chelsea imploded under Mourinho and Man City had a iffy season. But the way they played as a team and the spirit they showed, they deserved that luck.
It's sour grapes that shadows a huge achievement to make this claim and unfair.

Let's be fair to Leicester though they are on an even playing field. Most players are probably doping in the Premier League.

Armstrong got tested every week or so, Leicester probably didn't have ten players tested all last season, which kind of negates your point there.Let it go.
