I doesn't have to be a conspiracy

My best guess is that it comes down to luck and an element of unconscious bias on the part of referees (BTW I don't blame them for that as every human has these type of biases). But I simply don't believe that Leicester have had 10 times as many worthy penalty shouts as us this season.
