EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a historic moment in Gillingham's football history. Taken during the 1961/62 Fourth Division season, it showcases the Gillingham team group before their match against Rochdale on September 6th, 1961 at Spotland Stadium. The photograph is filled with determination and camaraderie as the players stand shoulder to shoulder, ready to take on their opponents. In the back row from left to right, we see Robert Ridley, Charles Livesey, Roy Proverbs, John Simpson, L. Vaessen, William Cockburn, and Cyril Simpson. The front row features Dennis Hunt, Harold Hughes (captain), Peter Godfrey (vice-captain), and Gordon Pulley. Each player exudes confidence and passion for the game as they wear their iconic Gillingham jerseys proudly. Their expressions hint at a shared sense of purpose - to bring glory to their beloved club. This image serves as a powerful reminder of an era when football was played with grit and determination rather than lavish contracts or commercial endorsements. It encapsulates the essence of grassroots football - where teamwork triumphs over individual brilliance. As we gaze upon this piece of sporting history captured by Colorsport Images, we are transported back in time to witness these heroes who etched themselves into Gillingham folklore through blood sweat and tears on that fateful day in 1961.
