EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph taken by Joe Meredith on September 4, 2013, the raw passion and excitement of the Bristol Derby between Bristol City and Bristol Rovers is palpable. The image captures the moment when jubilant fans, known as "Gasheads" for their support of Bristol Rovers, invaded the pitch at Ashton Gate to celebrate their team's victory in the first round of the Johnstone's Paint Trophy. The atmosphere was electric, with both sets of fans creating a cacophony of noise and color. However, the euphoria of the moment was suddenly halted as police horses were brought in to restore order. The old stadium, filled with history and rivalry, had once again played host to a fiercely competitive local derby. The first team of the 13-14 season had delivered an unforgettable cup game, with the underdogs, Bristol Rovers, triumphing over their rivals, the "Robins" of Bristol City. This photograph encapsulates the raw emotion and intensity of football in England, where the passion of the fans often spills over onto the pitch. The image is a testament to the enduring rivalry between the two Bristol teams and the unforgettable moments that make up the English football scene. Joe Meredith's photograph is a reminder of the unique energy and excitement that comes with a derby match, and the unforgettable moments that can unfold on the pitch. The image is a must-have for any football fan, and a valuable addition to any collection of sports photography. This photograph was taken during the first round of the Johnstone's Paint Trophy, a competition that provides an opportunity for teams outside the Football League Championship to compete against each other. The tournament is an important part of the English football calendar, and this photograph captures the essence of the competition in a powerful and memorable way.
