'It will take time for all this to sink in'
BBC Sport journalist and Sky Blues fan Katie Stafford on the immeasurable positives Coventry's promotion to the Premier League will have on the city and fans.
The best stories have happy endings and Coventry City finally have theirs. Just under 12 months ago, I wrote of yet another 'savage ending' in the Coventry storybook ' following the Sky Blues' play-off defeat by Sunderland. But that night at the Stadium of Light has been eclipsed by a Championship campaign branded the "the best ever" by supporters.
Coventry City are back in the Premier League and are champions of the Championship. A fairytale for the players, staff and supporters alike. The Sky Blues have come agonisingly close to the Premier League twice before and after finally getting over the line this season, there is an overwhelming sense of shock.
There was a euphoric and emotional atmosphere at Ewood Park after promotion was secured last Friday and just four days later, they won the league on home turf. That feels all the more special in a season when the Coventry Building Society Arena was bought by owner Doug King and became the club's official home after 20 years. It will take some time for promotion to sink in but what this means to the city of Coventry and its supporters is immeasurable.
Coventry City are back.
