EDITORS COMMENTS
In this nostalgic print captured by John Bassett, we witness a heartfelt moment as the Coventry City players bid farewell to their beloved manager, Gordon Milne. The year is 1982, and Milne has made the difficult decision to leave his post at Coventry City and embark on a new journey with second division Leicester City. The image radiates both camaraderie and respect as the Sky Blues' players gather around their departing leader. Their faces reflect a mixture of emotions - sadness for losing someone who has guided them through countless victories, but also admiration for Milne's next chapter in football management. A firm handshake between Milne and one of his players symbolizes the bond they have built over time. It represents not only gratitude for his guidance but also serves as an acknowledgement that life moves forward, even in the world of sports. This photograph encapsulates an era when loyalty was paramount in football clubs. It reminds us of a time when managers were revered figures who left indelible marks on their teams. As we delve into this piece from Memory Lane Prints, we are transported back to the 1980s - an iconic period in sporting history where passion for the game ran deep within every player's veins. John Bassett's skillful capture allows us to relive this poignant moment forever etched in Coventry City's rich legacy.
