Coventry City have secured a return to the Premier League after 25 years, sealing promotion with a 1-1 draw against Blackburn Rovers on Friday
Needing just a point to confirm their place, Frank Lampard’s side left it late, with Bobby Thomas heading home an equaliser at Ewood Park to spark celebrations.
Blackburn had earlier gone in front soon after the break through a deflected effort from Ryoya Morishita, putting the hosts on course for victory before Coventry’s late response.
Thomas’s crucial goal ignited jubilant scenes among the 7,500 travelling supporters, and the final whistle was followed by emotional celebrations on the pitch.
Coventry now sit top of the Championship table with 86 points from 43 matches, holding an unassailable lead over third-placed Millwall, confirming their promotion with games still to play.
