EDITORS COMMENTS
Great image capturing a special moment in the history of Preston North End Football Club during a pre-season friendly match against Blackburn Rovers on July 31,2004, at Deepdale. The focus of the photograph, however, is not on the football action but off the pitch. In the foreground, we see the unveiling ceremony of the Tom Finney statue outside Deepdale Stadium. Sir Tom Finney, a Preston North End legend and English footballing icon, is immortalized in this beautiful bronze sculpture. Finney, affectionately known as "The Preston Plumber" spent his entire professional career with Preston North End, making over 500 appearances for the club between 1946 and 1960. The statue's unveiling took place during half-time, and the occasion was marked by a guard of honor from both teams, as well as a large gathering of fans and dignitaries. Finney, dressed in a Preston North End blazer, is seen standing proudly next to the statue, looking on as the plaque is unveiled. The atmosphere is electric, with the excitement of the football match in the background adding to the sense of occasion. The Preston North End supporters can be seen cheering and applauding, while the Blackburn Rovers players and staff look on with respect and admiration. This photograph is a testament to the deep connection between Sir Tom Finney and Preston North End Football Club, and the enduring legacy he left behind. The Tom Finney statue remains a popular attraction for fans and visitors to Deepdale, serving as a reminder of the club's rich history and the contributions of one of its greatest players.
