Ian Holloway
Ian Holloway was Leicester City’s manager for the Club's relegation to the third tier of English football for the first and only time in its history. A home defeat against Sheffield Wednesday in the penultimate game, in front of a 31,892-strong crowd, and a 0-0 draw at Stoke City on the last day of the season, sealed Leicester's fate.
It was little consolation that the team was relegated with the second-best defensive record in the division (45) and with the highest number of points (53) for any club relegated to the third tier.
