EDITORS COMMENTS
A Spot of Trouble: Ayresome Park, Middlesbrough, March 1973 This evocative photograph captures the tension and unrest at Ayresome Park, Middlesbrough, during a football match between Middlesbrough FC and Sunderland AFC in March 1973. The image, titled "A Spot of Trouble," depicts a chaotic scene on the pitch, with police officers in riot gear attempting to maintain order amidst a sea of hooligan fans. The photograph, taken by Robin Dale, offers a glimpse into the volatile atmosphere of football matches during the 1970s in the northeast of England. The skinhead subculture was prevalent during this era, and football matches often served as a battleground for rival gangs. The photograph shows a group of skinheads, some with their heads shaved, others with short hair and braces, milling around the pitch. Their expressions are tense and defiant, reflecting the animosity between the two teams and their supporters. The photograph also shows the heavy police presence at the match, with officers in helmets and shields forming a line to keep the fans apart. The atmosphere is electric, with smoke rising from the pitch and the sound of shouting and chanting filling the air. The photograph captures a moment of conflict and tension that was all too common during football matches in the 1970s. The image is a powerful reminder of the passion and intensity that football can evoke, as well as the darker side of the beautiful game. It is a snapshot of a bygone era, when football matches were not just about the sport itself but also about tribal loyalties and territorial battles. This photograph is a must-have for anyone interested in the history of football, the 1970s, or the social and cultural history of the northeast of England.
