The finances thing isn't bollocks though. We are players at 20m, 30m and even 2 in the 50m bracket ahead of Leicester. Spurs, Arsenal, Chelsea and united the same in the main. I'm no Leicester expert at what they've spent but I know it's nothing near even the mid table clubs I would hazard a guess at. If they did the unthinkable and beat those big spending mid table teams and of course the teams who spend huge sums of money to the title, I can't see it being repeated or topped again, even with the bigger money coming in.
As for the 'I'm utterly bored of it' comment from the other poster, what's that about? I'd rather see Leicester doing this one off campaign of pushing for the title than the usual suspects, us excluded of course. Ideal for me is City first and Leicester finishing 2nd. Hope they do it.
In Leicester's circumstances though its not about what they've spent but what they have the ability to spend. On top of the stupid money clubs already get from the tv deal (which is about to significantly rise), Leicesters owner is worth £2.2bn ($3bn), the 10th richest owner in the league, he has a helicopter land on the pitch after every game to pick him up, he's certainly not a pauper.
The players they signed have just been good deals from good scouting, however they have still spent money. Just because a player costs £20m doesn't mean he's better than a £10m player, if anything a £10m premium is added on any transfer deal city make. 20 years ago maybe even just 10 years ago a relegation threatened team wouldn't be able to spend, Okazaki £8.25m, Kante £6.75m, Inler £5.25m, Benalouane £5.25m, Amartey £4.95m, Gray £3.83m (figures taken from tranfermarkt), thats £33m on 6 players and 4 players totalling nearly £20m have barely even kicked a ball for them this season. Then going back to last Ulloa £7.59m, Kramaric £6.75m another £15m worth of players to have barely been involved this season. Don't get me wrong they've picked up some great cheap deal too, Vardy, Mahrez, Huth and even Kante has proved value for money but that only because they've been in a position to take that risk. Being in the champions league next year with this £100m TV deal they're definitely going to be buying these £20m players. In the 2011/12 season when they were in the Championship they spent £14m, each club on average receives £2m from TV money in the Championship even with sponsorships they'd have still been in the red.
So although they don't spend the money of the top clubs they can still spend enough to compete and this will continue to be a theme from now on. Just look at other 'lesser' clubs in the league:
(all figure rounded from transfermarkt)
Van Dijk to Southampton - nearly £12m
Clasie to Southampton - £9m
Paloschi to relegation threatened Swansea - £7m
Imbula to Stoke - £18m
Shaqiri to Stoke - £13m
Cabaye to C Palace - £10m
Wickham! to C Palace - £7.5m
Niasse to Everton - £13m
Funes Mori to Everton - £10m
Payet to West Ham - £11m
Ogbonna to West Ham - £8m
Antonio to West Ham - £7m
Rondon to West Brom - £13m
Chester to West Brom - £8m
Wijnaldum to Newcastle - £15m
Mitrovic to Newcastle - £14m
Thauvin to Newcastle £14m
Shelvey to relegation threatened Newcastle - £12m
Townsend to relegation threatened Newcastle - £12m
Mbemba to Newcastle - £9m
In fact i'll stop there with Newcastle being a great example of teams falling through the net at either side of the table, money spent does not dictate league position entirely which is why I don't like the financial argument. Money obviously helps as you can keep spending it until it works much like our rise to the top but it isn't the be all. Arguably our 2 best players are Kompany £6m and Joe Hart less than £1m, so player value should not always dictate a teams league position. Don't get me wrong its amazing what they have done but I don't like the financial argument supporting them. Its down to good coaching, tactics and scouting.
