EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Maurice Tibbles takes us back to the 6th of October, 1970, capturing a moment in time at Newport Football Club. The image showcases the once vibrant terraces that now lay in disrepair and abandonment. As our eyes wander across the frame, we are met with a scene of grassy overgrowth, stubborn weeds pushing through cracks, and broken chairs scattered haphazardly. The photograph evokes a sense of nostalgia for football enthusiasts who remember this era when grounds were not always pristine but carried an undeniable charm. It serves as a reminder of the passion and dedication fans had for their beloved sport despite less than ideal conditions. Tibbles' composition skillfully captures both the beauty and decay within this forgotten corner of Newport Football Club's history. The contrast between nature reclaiming its territory and man-made structures falling into ruin is strikingly poignant. As we gaze upon this image from Memory Lane Prints, we cannot help but reflect on how time has transformed this once bustling sporting venue. It invites us to ponder on the fleeting nature of things while appreciating the enduring spirit that resides within these weathered walls.
