About Coventry City

Coventry City were founded in 1883 as Singers FC, a team of workers from the Singer cycle and car works, taking their present name in 1898 and their sky-blue colours — and nickname — in 1962. The Sky Blues spent 34 unbroken years in the top flight from 1967, including their sole major honour, the 1987 FA Cup, but were relegated in 2001 and spent the next quarter of a century in the lower divisions, including a spell playing home games outside the city during a stadium dispute.

Coventry won the 2025-26 Championship title outright to return to the Premier League for 2026-27, twenty-five years after they left it — one of English football's longer waits finally over.

Coventry City records & quirks

  • Highfield Road became England's first all-seater top-flight stadium in 1981, though standing terraces returned a few years later.
  • In 1976-77, Coventry and Bristol City stopped competing mid-match once news came that Sunderland had lost elsewhere, sealing safety for both sides.
  • Coventry's heaviest ever defeat was 2-11 away to Berwick Rangers in the FA Cup, November 1901.
  • The club's "Sky Blue Song", first sung in December 1962, was later recorded as an instrumental single by Ted Heath's orchestra.
