Highfield Road Stadium Going to the Match - Coventry City FC

Highfield Road was a football stadium in the city of Coventry, England. It was the home ground for Coventry City F.C. for 106 years.
It was built in 1899 in the Hillfields district, close to the city centre, and staged its final game on 30 April 2005 when Coventry City beat Derby County 6–2 in the Football League Championship with the last goal appropriately being scored by Andy Whing, a product of Coventry City's youth academy. A concert by pop star Elton John was held at the stadium afterwards. The club then moved to the Ricoh Arena, at Foleshill in the north of the city.
Highfield Road had one of the largest playing surfaces in the English leagues and was the English league's first all-seater stadium (the first all-seater in the UK was Clydebank's Kilbowie Park). The all-seater policy introduced by Jimmy Hill was later abandoned when Leeds United fans tore-out several hundred seats after losing their First Division game to Coventry City 4–0 in 1981, only months after the seats had been installed.

EDITORS COMMENTS

This print captures the historic Highfield Road Stadium, once home to Coventry City FC for an impressive 106 years. Built in 1899 in Coventry's Hillfields district, this iconic football ground witnessed countless thrilling matches and unforgettable moments. Its final game on April 30,2005, saw Coventry City triumph over Derby County with a resounding score of 6-2 in the Football League Championship. The last goal was fittingly scored by Andy Whing, a talented player who emerged from Coventry City's esteemed youth academy. Following this momentous match, fans bid farewell to Highfield Road with a memorable concert by none other than pop legend Elton John. Notably, this stadium boasted one of the largest playing surfaces in English leagues and held the distinction of being the first all-seater stadium in England (although Clydebank's Kilbowie Park was the UK's first). However, due to unfortunate events during a game between Leeds United and Coventry City in 1981 when several hundred seats were torn out by disgruntled Leeds supporters after their team suffered a heavy defeat, Jimmy Hill's visionary all-seater policy had to be abandoned. While Highfield Road Stadium may no longer host exhilarating football matches today as its successor is now located at Ricoh Arena in Foleshill, its legacy lives on through cherished memories etched into the hearts of devoted fans and players alike.
