Foxes rule!

All credit to Leicester City and their remarkable season ending in winning the Premiership title.  So nice to see a Midland team getting success.  OK, so they're East Midlands, but I'll take that - particularly after the Villa getting relegated.  Why the Foxes?  Well, their club badge is a fox and this relates to Leicestershire being considered by many as the cradle of organised foxhunting going back over 300 years to the founding of the Quorn Hunt which continues to meet regularly to this day.  It will be fascinating to see what next season brings, and particularly whether they can hang on to their best players, who must now surely be targets for the big money teams.
