Former Sky Blues boss Dave Sexton passes away at the age of 82

Coventry City Football Club are extremely saddened to learn of the death of former manager Dave Sexton.

The 82-year-old, who lived in Kenilworth, managed the Sky Blues between 1981 to 1983 but passed away this weekend.

Commenting on the death of the former Coventry City manager, CCFC deputy chairman John Clarke said: “This is very sad news. Dave was a major national figure in the football world and he had a very distinguished career at the highest level.
