The 1999-00 campaign delivered a memorable, if inconsistent, season for Coventry City under manager Gordon Strachan, with the Sky Blues finishing 14th in the Premier League. The season was defined by a Jekyll-and-Hyde form: a formidable force with 12 home victories at fortress Highfield Road, contrasted with a frustrating failure to win a single away match all season. Spearheading the attack was the sensational teenage marquee signing, Robbie Keane, whose 12 league goals provided flashes of brilliance, most notably his unforgettable, sensational winning goal in the thrilling 3-2 Boxing Day victory over title-challenging Arsenal. The year also marked the emotional retirement of club legend Steve Ogrizovic, severing the final link to the 1987 FA Cup winning side.
