EDITORS COMMENTS
great photo capturing a poignant moment during the West Ham United vs Everton Barclays Premier League match at Upton Park on November 8,2008. The image shows Everton players standing in a line, with their heads bowed and hands on their hearts, as they observe a minutes applause in memory of West Ham United's former captain and legendary figure, Billy Bonds. Bonds, who had passed away earlier that week at the age of 73, spent over 15 years playing for West Ham and went on to manage the team for a further 12 years. He was a true icon at Upton Park and his loss was deeply felt by both sets of fans. The minutes applause was a fitting tribute to a man who gave so much to the beautiful game and to West Ham United in particular. The image of the Everton players paying their respects is a powerful reminder of the unity and respect that exists between football clubs, even in the heat of competition. The photograph, expertly captured by Lee Mills of Action Images, is a poignant snapshot of a moment that encapsulates the emotions and sentiments of the football community during this sad time. It is a testament to the enduring legacy of Billy Bonds and the respect he earned during his long and distinguished career in football. This image brings back memories of the previous seasons, specifically the 08-09 campaign, where West Ham and Everton faced off against each other in the Premier League. The moment captured in this photo serves as a reminder of the importance of remembering those who have made significant contributions to the game and the impact they continue to have on the sport and its fans.
