EDITORS COMMENTS
On the town. . . some of the women behind the England World Cup team on their way to a London Theatre, Friday 29th July 1966. This print captures a moment of joy and camaraderie among the unsung heroes of English football - the wives and girlfriends (WAGs) who stood by their men during one of the most iconic moments in sporting history. Lesley Newton, girlfriend of Alan Ball, Judith Hurst, Kay Stiles, Norma Charlton, Pat Wilson, Carol Paine, and Ursula Banks exude elegance as they make their way to a London theatre. Dressed impeccably in fashionable 1960s attire, these women showcase not only their support for their partners but also embody an era where style met substance. The image serves as a reminder that while all eyes were on the players themselves during that historic World Cup win in 1966, there was an entire network of love and support behind them. These remarkable women played vital roles in providing emotional stability amidst intense pressure and celebrated alongside their loved ones when victory was achieved. This photograph encapsulates more than just a night out at the theater; it symbolizes unity within this tight-knit community. It is a testament to resilience and strength displayed by these extraordinary women who often remained unseen but whose unwavering presence undoubtedly contributed to England's success on that fateful day.
