Ian Holloway will meet Leicester City owner Milan Mandaric on Monday for talks that could decide his future at the Walkers Stadium.
The Foxes were relegated to League One on the final weekend of the season and Mandaric has been thinking over the future of the club.

They dropped into the third tier of English football for the first time after drawing 0-0 at Stoke as other resu
lts went against them.

Under-fire boss Holloway said: "Milan's been in America with his family but I'm going to see him on Monday.

"The papers have been speculating about my future, but there's bigger things at stake than Ian Holloway. It's not about my future, it's about Leicester."

Holloway admitted that relegation was the worst feeling he had ever had.

"I've looked at the teams in that division next year and to think Leicester are down there when they've never been there before is absolutely horrific," he said.

"To think we missed out by one goal. One goal at Stoke or one at Southampton for Sheffield United and we'd have stayed up.

"But it wasn't the game on Sunday that did it. The players needed to show that sort of spirit all season. Only once did we come back from going a goal down to win a game.

"It's always the team with the worst spirit and fight that goes down - and I have to say that it must have been us. And that's unacceptable. Gradually things were changing, but not quickly enough."
