EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Mervyn Berens, we are transported back to a crisp October day in 1972. The image showcases the vibrant energy and camaraderie of Manchester City football supporters as they gather outside the stadium before a highly anticipated match. The scene is filled with youthful exuberance and an undeniable sense of community. A sea of fans, predominantly teenagers, clad in their fashionable 1970s attire, eagerly await entry into the hallowed grounds. Their clothing choices reflect the prevailing trends of the era - bell-bottom trousers, bold patterns, and colorful accessories. One cannot help but notice their distinctive long hairstyles that were emblematic of youth culture during this period. These boys proudly display their rebellious spirit through their unique hairdos which further solidify their identity as passionate football enthusiasts. Amidst all the excitement and anticipation for what lies ahead on the pitch, it is heartwarming to witness these friends coming together to support their beloved team. Their shared passion for football unites them beyond any differences or backgrounds they may have had. Berens' photograph serves as a powerful reminder of how sports can foster unity among people from diverse walks of life. It captures a moment frozen in time where friendships were forged over shared victories and defeats on game days like these – memories that would undoubtedly last a lifetime for those present at that very moment in history.
