EDITORS COMMENTS
In this iconic photograph captured by Colorsport Images, we are transported back to the historic football season of 1946/47. The image showcases the Preston North End team group before their highly anticipated match against Manchester United at Deepdale. The players stand tall and proud, exuding determination and unity as they prepare to take on their formidable opponents. In the back row, we see a young Bill Shankly, who would later become one of football's most legendary managers. He is flanked by his teammates Jack Fairbrother, William Watson, Emlyn Williams, and William Scott. At the forefront of the picture stands Tom Finney - a true icon of English football. With his unmistakable presence and skillful prowess on the pitch, Finney became synonymous with Preston North End during his illustrious career. Surrounded by him are William Hamilton, William McIntosh, Robert Beattie - all integral members of this talented squad that made waves in the First Division that year. This print not only captures a moment frozen in time but also serves as a testament to the rich history and passion that surrounds British football. It reminds us of an era when these athletes played for love of the game rather than commercial gain – a reminder that will forever be cherished by fans worldwide.
