EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage photograph captures the intensity and excitement of the Calcutta Cup clash between Scotland and England during the Five Nations Championship at Murrayfield in 1989. The image focuses on a pivotal moment in the match, with John Carleton of the English rugby team darting past Keith Robertson of Scotland to score a crucial try. The atmosphere in the stadium is electric, with both sets of fans on the edge of their seats, fully engaged in the high-stakes encounter. The Five Nations Championship, now known as the Six Nations Championship, is one of the most prestigious international rugby union tournaments in the world. The Calcutta Cup, a symbol of Anglo-Scottish rugby rivalry, is contested between England and Scotland every year during the championship. This particular match at Murrayfield, the home ground of Scottish rugby, promised to be a fiercely competitive affair. John Carleton's evasive maneuver around Keith Robertson is a testament to the skill, agility, and determination required to excel in rugby union. The photograph not only encapsulates the athleticism and competitiveness of the players but also the passion and pride that both teams and their supporters bring to the field. This photograph, part of The Northcliffe Collection, is a valuable piece of rugby history that transports us back to a time when the Calcutta Cup was a highly anticipated annual event, filled with intense rivalry and unforgettable moments.
