About
The Phoenix has risen. The Phoenix is the best way to follow Coventry City.
Independent, intelligent, diverse coverage with a local focus, unburdened by intrusive advertising and with the fan community as its primary focus.
What's in store?
You'll get in-depth features exploring the past, present and future of our club; insight into what's going on both on and off the field; punchy opinion; and analysis on breaking news and developments.
The site has been designed with you, the reader, in mind. No popups, no autoplay videos, no slow loading caused by dozens of third-party adverts. And we promise you will never have to complete a survey to read an article.
A message from editor Rich Chamberlain
Hello Sky Blues fans! I have been one of you for 35 years, following the club through thick and thin (mostly thin) ever since.
As Coventry fans, we know that our club has an unbelievable number of stories to tell. The Phoenix will tell those stories with pride and passion. It will offer longform features, interviews and analysis from our club’s past and present.
With a goal in mind of becoming the go-to outlet for everything Coventry City, I would love you to jump on board and join us.
The importance of community
The Phoenix will only work with the support of the community.
Our model is built on the simple idea that local journalism works best when it is directly accountable to its audience. With The Phoenix, that's exactly what will happen.
We'll be guided by you, because without you the project simply cannot happen.
