EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph captured by Albert Cooper, we are transported back to the gloomy atmosphere of May 26th, 1982. The image features Glen Roeder, the esteemed captain of Queens Park Rangers football team, who is seen sitting out the replay match. With a fed-up expression etched on his face and a grumpy demeanor evident in his posture, Roeder's frustration is palpable. The print from Memory Lane Prints perfectly encapsulates the essence of sport in the 1980s - raw emotions laid bare for all to see. As we gaze at this snapshot frozen in time, we can almost feel the weight of disappointment that hangs heavy in the air. Roeder's absence from the replay adds an intriguing layer to this image. Perhaps he was nursing an injury or serving a suspension; regardless, it is clear that being forced to sit on the sidelines was not where he wanted to be. This moment captures both his determination as well as his longing to be out there with his teammates battling it out on the pitch. Cooper's skillful composition and choice of monochrome further enhance our connection with this iconic sporting figure. It serves as a poignant reminder that even champions have their moments of despair and frustration. This print invites us into a world where passion meets adversity – reminding us why football has always been more than just a game.
