The win over Swansea was the Sky Blues’ eighth in a row at home, a feat the club had not seen for more than seven decades.

This success not only strengthened the leadership of the team, but also inscribed the name of the current coaching staff in the history of the club. With victory over the Welshmen, Coventry made it eight consecutive home wins. This achievement was a repetition (and according to some indicators, an update) of the club record, which had been held since the distant 1954.
The magic of the Building Society Arena under the leadership of Frankie has turned the stadium into an impregnable fortress where opponents of any rank remain scoreless. Coventry are currently showing impressive consistency, which has seen the team single-handedly top the Championship table. The Sky Blues maintain an eight-point lead over second place.
Analysts note that Lampard managed to balance the team’s game: Coventry not only attacks effectively, but also shows iron discipline in defense, which was evident in the tense match against Swansea. If the team keeps up this pace, a return to the elite of English football could happen prematurely.
The fans are already preparing for the celebrations, because such a solid points margin at this stage of the season has historically almost always guaranteed promotion.
For Frank Lampard himself, this success is a chance to finally rehabilitate his coaching reputation after difficult periods at Chelsea and Everton. It seems he has finally found his team in Coventry.
