AUTHOR Carrera, Luca
PUBLISHER Independently Published (06/17/2025)
PRODUCT TYPE Paperback (Paperback)

Description

Rise of the Sky Blues is the definitive narrative of Coventry City Football Club-a story not of endless triumph, but of unwavering spirit. From its humble beginnings as Singers FC in an industrial heartland, through the glory of the 1987 FA Cup, to the heartbreak of exile and relegation, this is a footballing odyssey like no other.

Told with gripping detail and unrelenting accuracy, the book charts Coventry's many reinventions: the vision of Jimmy Hill, the highs of top-flight survival, the wrenching loss of Highfield Road, and the rebirths that followed. It honours the fans who travelled miles for home games, the academy stars who carried hope, and the managers who dared to dream.

Whether you're a lifelong member of the Sky Blue Army or a student of football's cultural impact, Rise of the Sky Blues is a story of endurance, pride, and the unbreakable bond between a club and its city.
