EDITORS COMMENTS
On the town. . . Some of the women behind the England football World Cup team, captured in a timeless moment on their way to a London Theatre. It was Friday, 29th July 1966, just one evening before the historic World Cup Final. In this print by Daily Herald from Memory Lane Prints, we witness an intimate gathering at a restaurant. Seated around a beautifully set table are Lesley Newton, girlfriend of Alan Ball; Judith Hurst; Kay Stiles; Norma Charlton; Pat Wilson; Carol Paine and Ursula Banks. These remarkable women played vital roles as pillars of support for their beloved footballers during that electrifying era. The atmosphere is filled with anticipation and camaraderie as they enjoy an exquisite meal together. Their radiant smiles reflect both excitement and pride for their partners who were about to make history on the pitch. This snapshot not only captures a delightful dinner outing but also symbolizes the strength and unity within these relationships. The wives and girlfriends (WAGs) showcased here demonstrate unwavering dedication towards their loved ones' sporting careers while maintaining vibrant social lives themselves. As we delve into this nostalgic scene from the swinging sixties, it serves as a reminder of how integral these incredible women were in shaping England's journey towards victory in that unforgettable World Cup tournament.
