Coventry spent 34 consecutive seasons in the top division from 1967 to 2001, a remarkable run. They currently compete in the Championship, playing home matches at the Coventry Building Society Arena, which holds 32,609 spectators. Notable former players include Cyrille Regis, Steve Ogrizovic, Dion Dublin, and Robbie Keane. The club moved back to Coventry after years groundsharing in Birmingham.
