Sky Blue Fall starts with a football club confident of a swift return to the Premier League and ends with one clinging on to its very existence by its fingertips. In the summer of 2001, Coventry City were preparing for life in the second tier after relegation. The drop had ended their unbroken 34 years in the top flight. Fans were hopeful it would be just a one-season stay, but in the seven years that followed, the club would rarely flirt with promotion. Instead, they would go through seven managers, endure delay after delay in their move to a brand new stadium and come within minutes of entering administration. Sky Blue Fall tells the tale of a football club that lurched from hope to despair but ultimately survived to fight another day. A club that enjoyed cup giant-killings and the arrival of big-name managers but still found themselves scrapping for survival. The story is told through interviews with key figures from the time, including managers Iain Dowie and Eric Black and dozens of players, such as Michael Doyle, Michael Mifsud, Richard Shaw and many more.

Rich Chamberlain's first trip to watch his beloved Coventry City was in the inaugural Premier League season. He witnessed a dire 2-0 defeat to Wimbledon. Amazingly, this failed to put him off a life following the Sky Blues. He has written two previous books about Coventry City, When The Sky Was Blue and Benno: Dave Bennett's Life In Football.
