RE: 2015-16 Football Season

A shame in my opinion after he brilliantly guided The Foxes to a well deserved 14th place finish and as a result secured another season of Premier League football for the club

Meanwhile Championship team Sheffield Wednesday have appointed Carlos Carvalhal as their new manager following the departure of Stuart Gray at the start of the month after being manager of The Owls for eighteen months. Another shame as despite our poor form at home (5 wins and 11 draws out of 23) last season he guided us to our highest placed finish (13th) for a number of seasons with a number of very good results away from home along the way too

Interesting appointment!
I wonder if Nigel Pearson had been sacked earlier would he have been a contender at Hillsborough especially the last time the Owls won any silverware he was club captain!
