EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in the history of English football. It depicts the return of battle-scarred England footballers from South America after their defeat in Mexico on September 7th, 1971. Amidst this group stands Pat Dunn, an extraordinary woman who played a pioneering role in women's football during that era. Dressed in a Mexican hat and sporting glasses, Pat Dunn was not just any spectator but a trailblazer for women's involvement in the sport. She coached and chaperoned the England International side at the 1971 Mexico Women's World Cup, breaking barriers and paving the way for future generations of female athletes. Beyond her coaching achievements, Pat Dunn etched her name into history as she became the first official women's football referee in 1976. Her dedication to advancing opportunities for women within this male-dominated field is truly commendable. The photograph itself exudes nostalgia with its vintage aesthetics from the 1970s. Set against an airport backdrop, it encapsulates both triumph and disappointment as these brave players return home after their arduous journey abroad. Victor Crawshaw skillfully captured this historic moment through his lens, allowing us to witness firsthand how sports can transcend gender boundaries and inspire change. This print serves as a powerful reminder of those who fought tirelessly to elevate women's football onto a global stage while also commemorating England's unwavering spirit despite defeat.
