EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print by Stewart Fraser from Colorsport Images, we are transported back to the intense atmosphere of a football match in 1973/1974. The image captures the momentous clash between Leyton Orient and Aston Villa in the Second Division at Brisbane Road. The focus of the photograph is on two players: Gerry Queen from Leyton Orient and John Robson representing Aston Villa. Both athletes exude determination as they engage in a fierce battle for possession. Their expressions reveal their unwavering commitment to their respective teams, highlighting the passion that fuels football. This particular game held great significance for Leyton Orient, as it was their chance to secure promotion to the prestigious First Division. However, despite their best efforts, both sides ended up drawing with a scoreline of 1-1. The disappointment is palpable as it becomes evident that Orient's dreams of reaching higher heights were shattered on that fateful day - May 3rd, 1974. Fraser's expertly captured image not only freezes this crucial moment in time but also encapsulates the emotions surrounding it. It serves as a reminder of how close success can be yet so elusive at times within the realm of sports. This print stands as a testament to the dedication and resilience required in pursuit of greatness on any playing field.
