Lampard: Coventry must 'keep feet on the ground' after landmark win
Coventry City secured their first top-flight win in 25 years, beating Nottingham Forest 1-0. Manager Frank Lampard called it a landmark day while urging caution.

Coventry City marked a historic milestone by claiming their first victory in England's top division in 25 years, defeating Nottingham Forest 1-0 away at the City Ground.
Manager Frank Lampard described the result as a landmark occasion for the club, while stressing that the team must stay grounded and not let the achievement go to their heads.
A long road back
The win ends a quarter-century wait for Coventry at the top level of English football, underlining how significant a moment this represents for the club as it seeks to re-establish itself among the country's leading sides.
Lampard, who has extensive experience as both a player and manager at the highest level, emphasised the need for humility and focus so that the victory becomes a foundation for further progress rather than an isolated high point in the season.
