EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "If you can't beat them, join them" we are transported back to August 1965, where a football widow has made a bold decision. Determined not to let her husband be the only one enjoying Saturday afternoon off to watch the footie, she joins other women in supporting their teams from the terrace and stands. The expressions on these women's faces tell a story of worry mixed with excitement as they immerse themselves in the world of sport. Their dedication and passion for football shine through, defying societal norms that often relegated women to mere spectators. This snapshot captures an important moment in history when women were beginning to challenge traditional gender roles and assert their presence in male-dominated spaces. It serves as a reminder of how far we have come in terms of gender equality within sports. The black-and-white aesthetic adds a timeless quality to this image, emphasizing its historical significance. As we gaze upon these determined supporters and spectators from decades past, we cannot help but feel inspired by their courage and resilience. This print is more than just a visual representation; it encapsulates an era defined by change and progress. It reminds us that sometimes, instead of fighting against something we may not fully understand or appreciate initially, joining forces can lead to unexpected joys and newfound connections.
