Here’s Dom Booth’s report from Ewood Park.
Lampard speaks: “Incredible moment, you worry, you worry, the power of the header. It’s what it’s about. It’s not easy. To get it over the line after 25 years, wow. Now they get this moment. This incedible fanbase and what it means to this city. To come in 15 months ago, Mark Robins had done an incredible job.”
Frank gets emotional as he pays tribute to “incredible” players. “I’m proud of myself, the staff, and myself. We went into the unknown, we have fallen in love. I was fortunate to be in great Chelsea teams….but to overachieve, no disrespect to these players…I looked at Coventry and saw the job Mark Robins had done. The resilience to come back again.
“It’s such a good feeling the lads have got it over the line. Evetything I have done in my career has been a point to prove. It’s quite stressful. I’ve got much more balance. When you trust the players it’s much easier. Those boys have sorted things out for themselves. They deserve to have a beer. We want to go and do it for them. We want to say from July 1 to the end we got it spot on.”
That was quite an interview. He really meant it, catch it on the socials if you can.
