Jamie Vardy has apologised to Leicester City fans for the ‘shit show’ of their relegation from the Premier League.
The Foxes striker branded their miserable season a ‘total embarrassment’ after their return to the Championship was confirmed with defeat to Liverpool on Sunday. It was the ninth home game in a row in which Leicester have failed to score as the former champions suffered their second relegation in three seasons with a whimper.
Ruud van Nistelrooy has been unable to steer them to safety in what has been a dire campaign, and boos rang round the King Power Stadium on Sunday as Leicester's hopes of survival ended with five games still left in the season.
