Doug King also praised the decision, describing Hutchison as someone who perfectly represents the spirit and resilience of Coventry City.
“This is more than recognition,” King said. “Tommy embodies everything this club stands for—commitment, passion, and pride in the badge.”
Speaking briefly after the announcement, Hutchison expressed deep gratitude for the honor. The former midfielder thanked the club and its fans for their continued support and said he was proud to remain part of the Coventry City family.
“It’s a privilege to still be involved with the club I love,” Hutchison said. “I’m looking forward to helping the team and connecting with the supporters who make this club so special.”
For Coventry fans, the moment served as a powerful reminder that while football continues to evolve, the legends who shaped a club’s identity will never be forgotten.
With Hutchison stepping into his new ambassadorial role, Coventry City has once again demonstrated its determination to celebrate its heritage while building toward an exciting future.
