EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by John Bassett, we are transported back to the 7th of August 1991, witnessing a thrilling football match between Coventry City FC and Southampton. The focus of the image is on Coventry City's talented player, Cyrille Regis, as he finds himself in a prime scoring position. However, fate seems to be against him as his shot veers off target. With determination etched on his face, Regis battles against time and Southamptons' Neil Ruddock who closes in swiftly. The photograph perfectly encapsulates the intensity and excitement that permeated through stadiums during 1990s football matches. It serves as a reminder of the skill and passion displayed by these athletes who dedicated their lives to the beautiful game. As we gaze at this snapshot frozen in time, memories flood back for fans of both teams. For Coventry City supporters - known affectionately as Sky Blues - it represents a moment filled with hope and anticipation for victory. Meanwhile, Saints fans can relish in Ruddock's defensive prowess which prevented what could have been an equalizing goal. John Bassett's expertly composed photograph not only captures an unforgettable sporting moment but also immortalizes two iconic players from that era: Cyrille Regis and Neil Ruddock. This print is undoubtedly a cherished piece for any avid collector or fan seeking to reminisce about one of football's most exciting decades – the vibrant 1990s.
