Sure enough, Leicester City’s artistically-minded grounds staff have outdone themselves ahead of their team’s final match of the season.
As was teased last week, the Foxes have gone all out with their pitch preparations for today’s game against Bournemouth at the King Power, snipping a giant version of their club crest into the turf.

The design was actually produced with an assist from Belgian company New Ground Tech, with Leicester being the first ever football club to use their TurfPrint Graphic system to create such an intricate motif.
Excellent work, and reassuring to know that the dazzling quality of Leicester’s turf has never dipped, even in spite of some of the rubbish being played on it earlier in the campaign.
