Frank Lampard faces a friend and former teammate Scott Parker in the weekend championship match – while Coventry is preparing to honor 50 club legends

Coventry City will talk about the 1987 spirit while Frank Lampard will face the former Chelsea teammate and England Scott Parker in the weekend championship match.

FIFTY SKY BLUES GREATS, including the winners of the FA CUP, Steve Ogrizovic, Dave Bennett and Trevor Peake will be part of a parade of the day of legends at Ricoh Arena while the Lampard eliminatory series hunters will face Burnley.

Coventry beat 3-2 Spurs in Wembley in the 1987 final the most famous day in the history of the club and other heroes exposed will include Tommy Hutchinson, 77, considered by many to be the best player in the city.

Parker will have other things in mind with Burnley in a pulsating pursuit with Sheffield United and Leeds for a place of automatic promotion.

Lampard was alongside Parker when the manager of Clarets made his debut for Chelsea and England, and it is not surprised that his rival at lunchtime entered management.

“You often find that some players are interested in the tactical side and are more involved in details that you must understand, but others could find boring,” said the boss of Burnley.

“There are certainly those you can become coaches or enter coaching.”

Parker, who previously won the promotion of the Premier League with Fulham and Bournemouth, says that secret should not be distracted by the results elsewhere.

“There is no look on the road to us or what others do. It is absolutely out of words, ”he argued.

“We continue to bring the best version of ourselves that we have done for large games of the season. Our form suggests that we must continue to do so, and the figures also suggest it.
