The Legacy

Talbot sponsored Coventry City for the 1985-1986 campaign, which saw the side finish 17th in the First Division. Don Mackay took charge of the team that year, overseeing a squad that relied on the defensive partnership of Trevor Peake and Brian Kilcline. Dave Bennett and Nick Pickering provided the attacking width from midfield. This Umbro home shirt was worn throughout a year defined by the challenge of maintaining top-flight status. The club remained competitive in the league, ensuring their place at the highest level of English football for another season.

Key Moment

Coventry City built the foundation for their 1987 FA Cup winning squad throughout the 1985-1986 season.
