Leicester have marked their Championship success with an open-top bus parade through the city. After suffering relegation from the Premier League on the final day of last season, the club appointed former Parma boss Enzo Maresca as they looked to bounce back at the first time of asking. However, the club again rebounded with three back-to-back wins with Leeds' defeat against QPR last week confirming their promotion. Travelling in an open-top bus adorned with the words 'straight back up', the players and staff travelled through jubilant scenes in the East Midlands city. The Foxes will be joined in the Premier League next season by Ipswich Town, who secured automatic promotion on the final day of the season thanks to a 21-0 win against Huddersfield.
