EDITORS COMMENTS
In this poignant photograph taken during the Preston North End (PNE) versus Rotherham United SkyBet Championship match at Deepdale on October 27,2018, Lukas Nmecha proudly wears a poppy on his chest as he prepares to honor the fallen. The centenary of the Armistice, marking the end of World War I, was commemorated during this emotional home game. Preston North End Football Club, with its rich history dating back to 1880, has a deep connection to the community and the region's military heritage. As the crowd gathered at Deepdale Stadium, the atmosphere was filled with a sense of solemnity and respect. Lukas Nmecha, a young and talented forward on loan from Manchester City, joined his teammates in paying tribute to the brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice for their country. The poppy, a symbol of remembrance and hope, adorned the jerseys and scarves of players and fans alike. The English Football League (EFL) and its clubs, including Preston North End, have a longstanding tradition of supporting the Royal British Legion's Poppy Appeal. This annual campaign raises vital funds for the welfare of the Armed Forces community, providing financial, social, and emotional support to veterans and their families. As the sun began to set on this memorable occasion, the players took to the field, with Lukas Nmecha leading the way, his poppy proudly displayed. The crowd fell silent as the teams observed a minute's silence, paying their respects to those who gave their lives for our freedom. This powerful image encapsulates the spirit of unity, respect, and remembrance that was prevalent at Deepdale Stadium on October 27,2018, as Preston North End and Rotherham United came together to honor the fallen heroes of the past and present.
