The Legacy

Coventry City finished 16th in the Football League First Division in 1980-1981, securing safety under manager Gordon Milne. Garry Thompson led the attack alongside Mark Hateley, while Tommy Hutchison provided experience in midfield. Admiral manufactured the teamwear for the campaign, which featured the Talbot sponsor on the front. The squad successfully maintained their top-flight status despite a difficult schedule against the country's strongest sides.
