Cover Colour
"Coventry are almost there. 96,000 fans watch on at Wembley as Tottenham pile on the pressure in the dying moments of the 1987 FA Cup Final. Hoddle launches it into the box, but Steve Ogrizovich has it covered. And that’s it. The final whistle blows and Coventry fans go wild. This 104-year-old club has its first major trophy."
Today, Coventry City is over 140 years old and its fans, across generations, have seen quite a story unfold. This book puts all those generations and moments together in one compendium of authentic newspaper reports, to take Sky Blue fans on a trip back through history. Its 140 pages include the long-awaited promotion to the top tier in 1967, the Premier League years of Dublin, McAllister and Huckerby, the ups and downs of recent seasons, and of course: that glorious day at Wembley in 1987.
