After a 25-year absence, Coventry City are back in England’s top flight. Mark Chapman is joined by Golden Boot-winning former striker Dion Dublin, club legend Steve Ogrizovic, BBC CWR's Rob Gurney, and others to reflect on the club’s remarkable story.
The Sky Blues have been all the way down to League Two since their last Premier League appearance, had to move out of their own city on two separate occasions, endured a spell in administration and they’ve had 15 managers!
So, how did it happen, and how did they get back here?
In the end, Frank Lampard was the man to bring them back up. We’ll hear from Lampard, recall the club’s rejuvenation under Mark Robins and the fan stories during the darker years.

Aaron Paul and Jobi McAnuff are joined by Bolton manager Steven Schumacher to break down the opening weekend of league fixtures in the EFL - and we hear from Luton boss Jack Wilshere.
Bolton won on their return to the Championship, but how can they compete with their big-spending rivals. The panel also discuss Will Lankshear's dream start at Middlesbrough, how Southampton will deal with being pantomime villains after Spygate and whether VAR is needed in the Championship after a blatant handball helped West Brom beat Norwich.
Jack Wilshere joins the pod after his Luton side came from 3-1 down to beat Reading in their opener, and talks about his first pre-season as a first team manager.

This week, former Manchester City, QPR and Sunderland defender Nedum Onuoha submits three stories from his football career.
Did Manchester City boss Stuart Pearce really send England goalkeeper David James up front in a desperate attempt to qualify for Europe? Was Onuoha handed a tactical note by his manager that somehow only included ten players? Or did a Championship manager spend every matchday watching soap operas on his iPad instead of focusing on the game ahead?
Armed with photographs, football knowledge and plenty of confidence, Karel and Anita dissect every detail before Onuoha returns to reveal the truth.
Karel Prince: Lie Detector is presented by Karel Prince and Anita Abayomi and is a Sport Social Studios production for BBC Sounds.
