EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from The Northcliffe Collection, we are transported back in time to witness a tender moment of care and support between Manchester City footballer Bill Leivers and his loving wife, Shirley. As the camera freezes this intimate scene, we catch a glimpse into the world of footballers during an era filled with nostalgia and historic significance. Bill Leivers, known for his remarkable skills on the field as part of Manchester City's esteemed team, finds himself nursing an injured foot. With determination etched on his face, he sits comfortably while delicately submerging his foot in a bowl of water prepared by Shirley. Her dedication is evident as she stands beside him, her gaze fixed upon her husband's well-being. The image exudes a sense of camaraderie that transcends the boundaries of sport. It reminds us that even celebrated athletes like Leivers require moments of vulnerability and care. In their private sanctuary away from the roaring crowds at stadiums, it is within these simple acts that love flourishes. This photograph not only captures a poignant moment shared between two individuals but also offers us insight into the past – an era when football was played with passion rather than commercial gain. It invites us to reflect upon how sportsmanship was once defined by genuine connections forged both on and off the pitch. As we immerse ourselves in this snapshot frozen in time, let us appreciate not only its artistic value but also its ability to transport us back to an age where sport held deeper meaning; where players were revered for their skill but cherished for their humanity.
