In this print titled "A Policeman's Lot!", we are transported back to the vibrant atmosphere of a football match in Middlesbrough on the 20th of May, 1987. Amidst a sea of passionate fans, one particular supporter stands out as he unleashes an ear-bashing tirade upon a hapless sergeant. The image captures the essence of hooliganism prevalent during the 1980s, when football matches were often marred by rowdy behavior. The policeman's lot is indeed a happy one here, as evidenced by the mischievous grin on his face despite being subjected to vocal abuse from this noisy fan. It serves as a reminder that even in challenging situations, humor can prevail and diffuse tension. This photograph encapsulates not only the fervor surrounding sport but also highlights the crucial role played by law enforcement officers in maintaining order amidst chaotic scenes. The dedication and resilience displayed by these policemen deserve recognition. As we delve into our collective memory lane through this evocative print, it prompts us to reflect on how far society has come since those tumultuous times. While hooliganism remains an issue that needs addressing in modern-day sports events, it is heartening to witness efforts made towards fostering safer environments for supporters and players alike. Staff at Memory Lane Prints have expertly curated this snapshot from history, allowing us to relive moments that shaped our sporting culture while appreciating those who work tirelessly behind-the-scenes to ensure our safety and enjoyment
