Great photo captures the jubilant moment as Arsenal assistant manager Pat Rice is lifted off his feet by the triumphant players following their hard-fought victory over West Bromwich Albion in the 2011-12 Barclays Premier League season. The scene at The Hawthorns on May 13, 2012, was one of pure elation for Arsenal fans and players alike, as the team secured a valuable three points to keep their top-four hopes alive. Pat Rice, a loyal servant to Arsenal Football Club for over three decades, was basking in the glory of another successful campaign with the team. Having joined Arsenal as a player in 1980, Rice went on to make over 250 appearances for the club before transitioning into coaching. He spent the next 23 years as a coach, working closely with Arsène Wenger and helping to shape some of the most memorable teams in Arsenal's history. As the final whistle blew, the players gathered around their beloved assistant manager, expressing their gratitude and appreciation for his unwavering dedication and commitment to the team. In an emotional send-off, they hoisted Rice above their heads, celebrating not only the win but also the enduring bond between the players and their mentor. This photo encapsulates the spirit of camaraderie, passion, and triumph that defines football, and serves as a testament to Pat Rice's invaluable contribution to Arsenal Football Club.
