EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from Memory Lane Prints, we are transported back to the 1980s, a glorious era for football enthusiasts. The image showcases Coventry's legendary figure, Jimmy Hill, alongside the club's newly appointed manager, Dave Sexton. As they stand proudly at the training ground on that sunny day of May 19th in 1981, their smiles radiate with excitement and anticipation. Hill's iconic presence as both chairman and former player is palpable in this snapshot. His passion for the sport and dedication to Coventry City Football Club have left an indelible mark on its history. Standing beside him is Sexton, who brings a fresh perspective as he takes up his new managerial role. Together with their wives - Thea Sexton gracefully by her husband's side - they form a formidable team ready to lead Coventry City towards future triumphs. The atmosphere captured in this photograph exudes optimism and camaraderie; it encapsulates the spirit of teamwork that fuels success on and off the field. It serves as a reminder of how football has always been more than just a game – it unites communities and inspires generations. Williams' skillful lens immortalizes this momentous occasion within the annals of football history. This print not only captures two influential figures but also symbolizes an era when dreams were forged under blue skies and determination knew no bounds.
