Club captain Wes Morgan will lift the trophy in front of the Blue Army at King Power Stadium on the final day of the season against Doncaster Rovers on Saturday 3 May – City’s seventh second tier title.
That seventh title equals the all-time English league record of second tier league wins held by Manchester City, and means Morgan’s name will be alongside Johnny Duncan, Sep Smith, Matt Gillies, Jack Froggatt, David Nish and Mark Wallington as the men to have lifted the famous trophy in City blue.
The Foxes have been top of the league since a 1-0 victory over Reading at King Power Stadium on Boxing Day – the second game of a Club record nine game winning streak.
A Club second-tier record of 21 games without defeat between December and April followed to cement the Foxes’ place at the summit, while Tuesday’s win at the Reebok made it a remarkable 29 league games since the Foxes failed to score.
Just two fixtures now remain for the Foxes to go on and achieve even more Club records this season – away to Huddersfield Town and at home to Doncaster Rovers – before they begin preparations for their first Premier League season since 2003/04.
Excitement is already building for the new campaign, and the newly crowned Championship winners will discover their Premier League fate at 9am on Wednesday 18 June, when the full 2014/15 fixture list will be released on www.lcfc.com.
