As i said gonna be a quick update when abit to far in my game without relising, too much work and time to update it all in one go so just gonna do a quick little update.
So Leicester managed to get into to the top 4 a great acheviment by manager Jake Stratton. A season to remember for the Leicester fans, winning the League Cup too.
Sorry for another poor update but for next season, gonna put loads of effort in .
Jake Stratton has now been at the club for 5 years since taking over he has an amazing impact, gaining promotion the the Premier League seemed a fantasic acheivment. But it was just the start, reaching the FA Cup final and qualifying for Euro Cup, Leicester fans we're in dream land. Some worried they would suffer second season sydrome going back down but they had a steady year reaching 9th in the table, but each year the squad gets stronger they put up a title challenge for half of the season in 2013, slowly fading away. But they managed to keep in the top 4 and that means the big time, Champions League but first they willl have to get through the qualifying round. A League Cup victory put the gloss on their fantasic season, their first since lifting the Championship title.

Man of the match: L.Cattermole 7.8
Leicester made hard work over newly promoted Birmingham it was the away side that took the shock lead after just 47 seconds, when Michael Johnson was robbed off the ball and O'Connor slotting the ball home. Lee Cattermole equalised for the home side after a good cut back by Diogo, a fairly even game until Birmingham's Pearce got sent off for a second bookable offence. Soon after Niki Zimling missed from the spot after De Jong won a penalty, but subtistute Bas De Jong scored a controversial goal late on after he appeared to be offside from a ball from Martinez.
