EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back to the historic football match between Southport and York City in 1949/1950. The image captures a pivotal moment as York's goalkeeper, Alick Grant, skillfully gathers the ball with unwavering focus. His determination is palpable as he prepares to make his next move amidst the intense atmosphere at Haig Avenue. Standing beside him is Alan Stewart, a Southport player who watches closely, ready to seize any opportunity that may arise. Their contrasting expressions reveal the fierce competition and unyielding spirit of both teams on that fateful day. The photograph exudes a timeless quality, transporting us back to an era when football was played with raw passion and grit. It serves as a reminder of the rich history embedded within every game - where victories were hard-fought and draws were celebrated for their hard-earned points. This remarkable snapshot was captured by Colorsport / Provincial Press on March 18th, 1950. Its monochromatic tones add depth and nostalgia to an already evocative scene. As we gaze upon this piece of sporting history frozen in time, we can't help but be reminded of the enduring legacy left behind by these dedicated athletes who graced the pitch over seven decades ago.
