EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph, taken by Joe Meredith on August 4, 2012, at Ashton Gate Stadium, the historic home of Bristol City Football Club, a special moment unfolds as Louis Carey, a beloved figure from the club's past, is reunited with two cherished friends, Marina Dolman and Keith Dawe, during his testimonial match. The occasion marked the end of a remarkable career for Carey, who had spent over a decade as a first-team player for the Robins during the late 1990s and early 2000s. A key figure in the team's promotion to the Championship in the 1999-2000 season, Carey's contributions to the club were not limited to his impressive performances on the pitch. His dedication, professionalism, and commitment to the community endeared him to fans, earning him the moniker "Carey the Lion." As the sun began to set on Carey's career, the club organized a testimonial match to celebrate his achievements and raise funds for local charities. The opposition that day was none other than local rivals, Bristol Rovers, in what was known as the "Bristol Derby." The friendly encounter drew a sizeable crowd, eager to pay tribute to the man who had given so much to the club. In this poignant moment, Carey is seen sharing a heartfelt embrace with Marina Dolman and Keith Dawe, two individuals who have been a constant presence in his life throughout his time at Ashton Gate. The trio's connection is palpable, a testament to the enduring bonds forged during the beautiful game. The photograph encapsulates the spirit of camaraderie, nostalgia, and appreciation that filled the air that day, making it a cherished memento of a special reunion at Ashton Gate.
