Garry Richardson looks at the main sports stories of the week, including Leicester's incredible season, Shane Sutton's resignation and the Hillsborough inquest.

This week we discuss Leicester's stunning season with the club's former midfielder Alan Birchenall. Ex-Arsenal midfielder Ray Parlour gives his view on Arsene Wenger's position as Gunners boss, while Juan Mata reflects on a frustrating season with Manchester United. Elsewhere, we reflect on the Hillsborough inquest findings with Andy Burnham, who has campaigned on behalf of victims' families for justice. Meanwhile, in the week that British Cycling's technical director Shane Sutton quit amid sexism and discrimination claims, we speak to former top coach Bill Sweetenham, who was head of the British swimming team for seven years, to assess his fellow Australian's position. And Barry Hearn, boss of world snooker, anticipates the final of the World Snooker Championships.
