EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from the iconic Northcliffe Collection, we are transported back to a nostalgic moment in football history. The year is 1971, and the Arsenal team gathers with their beloved wives at Highbury Stadium before the highly anticipated FA Cup Final. The image captures not only the excitement surrounding this historic event but also offers a glimpse into the personal lives of these legendary footballers. Each player proudly stands alongside their devoted partner, showcasing a bond that extends beyond the pitch. Amongst them, Jon Sammels and his wife Angela exude elegance as they pose for the camera. Bob Wilson and his wife Megs radiate warmth, reflecting their unwavering support for one another. Peter Marinello's infectious smile is matched by his wife Joyce's undeniable charm. And Peter Simpson stands tall beside his loving wife Anne, epitomizing strength both on and off the field. In front row, John Roberts shares an intimate moment with his wife Yvonne while George Graham embraces his wife Marie with tenderness. Frank McLintock locks eyes with his adoring spouse Barbara as Charlie George proudly introduces girlfriend Susan Farge to this cherished group of individuals. Eddie Kelly completes this remarkable lineup accompanied by girlfriend Sylvia Pini. This photograph encapsulates not just a snapshot in time but also represents an era when football was more than just a game; it was a way of life. As we gaze upon these familiar faces frozen in black and white, we are reminded of how sport has always had the power to unite people across generations. Chris Barham skillfully immortalizes this treasured memory through photography - allowing us to relive those glorious moments etched forever in our collective sporting consciousness.
