Leicester City relegated to League One

A decade after the most remarkable underdog story in sporting history, Leicester City have dropped to the third tier of English football.

A 2-2 draw against Hull City on Tuesday night sealed their fate, making them one of the most expensive squads ever to be relegated from the Championship.

Fans gathered outside the King Power Stadium to demand the resignation of the chairman and board members following the final whistle.

The club now faces a massive financial crisis and the likely departure of several key first-team players as they prepare for life in League One.
