EDITORS COMMENTS
In this iconic photograph, Sir Tom Finney of Preston North End proudly holds aloft the Footballer of the Year trophy for the second time, cementing his status as one of the greatest footballers in British history. The image captures the moment of triumph and pride as Finney, with a beaming smile, raises the coveted award above his head in front of an adoring crowd. Finney, affectionately known as "The Preston Plumber" for his humble origins, began his professional football career with Preston North End in 1946. His exceptional talent and dedication quickly earned him recognition, and he went on to make his debut for the England national team in 1947. Over the next decade, Finney's skill and versatility as a winger or inside forward made him a key player for both Preston and England. The Footballer of the Year award, which was first presented in 1948, is considered one of the most prestigious individual honors in English football. Finney was the first player to win the award twice, achieving this feat in 1954 and 1957. This photograph, taken during the 1957 presentation ceremony, encapsulates the essence of Finney's remarkable footballing career and his enduring legacy as a beloved figure in the sport. Despite his many accolades, Finney remained grounded and humble throughout his life. He continued to support Preston North End and remained an inspiration to generations of football fans. This photograph serves as a testament to his unwavering passion for the game and his undeniable impact on British football.
