Elaine collected £ 3, 000 for naming a team that a panel of managers agreed would stay at the top for 3 years. Plus, Elaine had to nominate a goalscorer who would net her an additional £ 200 per goal for every goal scored in a certain period.
Elaine chose West Ham United star Bryan Robson (pictured), who has so far scored 5 goals, with 12 games to go.

EDITORS COMMENTS
Elaine Rose, a 19-year-old student teacher from Manchester, beams with pride as she holds up her winning photo print. She is the victorious winner of the Heinz Pick a Soccer team competition, an incredible achievement that has earned her £3,000. Elaine's task was to name a team that a panel of managers believed would dominate the soccer scene for three consecutive years. But there was more at stake for Elaine than just naming a successful team. She had to select a goalscorer who would earn her an additional £200 per goal scored within a specific timeframe. With great foresight and football knowledge, Elaine chose none other than West Ham United star Bryan Robson (pictured alongside her), who has already netted an impressive five goals with twelve games still to go. This photograph captures the joyous moment when Elaine and Pop Robson met in February 1973. Their smiles radiate excitement and anticipation for what lies ahead in their shared journey towards victory on the soccer field. The image serves as a nostalgic reminder of this remarkable accomplishment during the vibrant era of the 1970s. It showcases not only Elaine's triumph but also highlights how sports competitions like these brought communities together and created unforgettable memories.
