EDITORS COMMENTS
In this nostalgic print from Memory Lane Prints, we are transported back to the vibrant atmosphere of Bristol City's ground in the 1970s. One of the main attractions during that time was an unexpected guest appearance by an elephant on the five-a-side ground. The sheer novelty and excitement it brought to both players and spectators alike is palpable. Caught in action, we see Bristol City manager Alan Dicks helplessly positioned in goal as he faces a thunderous right foot shot. Despite his best efforts, he couldn't stop the ball from finding its way into the net. On his left stands Peter Cormack, a new signing from Liverpool, ready to lend support and contribute his skills to the team. Meanwhile, on his right is Chris Garland, another fresh addition from Leicester City. The image perfectly captures not only a moment of sporting prowess but also showcases the lighter side of football with its humorous twist involving an unexpected visitor. It serves as a reminder that even amidst fierce competition and high stakes, there is always room for laughter and amusement. Circa 1970, this photograph encapsulates a time when animals could unexpectedly grace football grounds and add an extra layer of excitement to matches. A true gem for any sports enthusiast or lover of vintage memorabilia.
