EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print by Colorsport Images, we are transported back to the historic Stamford Bridge on April 21,1980. The occasion was none other than Ron Harris' testimonial match, where Chelsea faced off against a formidable Chelsea Past X1 team. However, it is not just the game itself that steals our attention but rather the poignant moment captured within. Amidst the sea of players and spectators stands Jimmy Greaves, an iconic figure in football history. This match would mark his last appearance as a player before retiring from the sport altogether. Behind his charming smile lies a story of resilience and personal struggle; battling with alcoholism for several years had undoubtedly taken its toll. The image beautifully encapsulates both celebration and reflection. As Greaves takes to the field one final time, there is an air of nostalgia surrounding him - a sense of reverence for all he has achieved throughout his illustrious career. It serves as a reminder that even those who have reached great heights can face their own demons. Credit must be given to Colorsport photographer Andrew Cowie for capturing this significant moment so skillfully. Through his lens, we are granted access to witness not only sporting prowess but also human vulnerability – reminding us that behind every legend lies a complex journey filled with triumphs and tribulations. This evocative print serves as both homage to Ron Harris' remarkable career and testament to Jimmy Greaves' enduring legacy in football history – forever etched in our memories through Colorsport's timeless
