EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures James Trainer, a Welsh-born footballing legend of the late 19th century. Born in 1863, Trainer's impressive career spanned over a decade and saw him play for several prominent English clubs, as well as representing Wales on the international stage. Trainer's football journey began with Wrexham, a Welsh team based in North Wales. He later joined Great Lever, a local team from Bolton, before making a significant impact at Bolton Wanderers, one of the most successful clubs in English football history. Trainer's exceptional goalkeeping skills earned him a move to Preston North End, where he helped the team secure the Football League Championship title in the 1894-95 season. This photograph, taken in the 1890s, shows Trainer in his prime. Dressed in the traditional attire of the era, he wears high-waisted trousers and a long-sleeved shirt, both adorned with the distinctive badges of his team. The image exudes an air of confidence and determination, reflecting Trainer's reputation as a formidable shot-stopper and a key figure in the early development of football in both England and Wales. Trainer's impact on the game extended beyond his playing career, as he later became a respected coach and administrator. His contributions to football during the Victorian era cemented his place in the annals of sporting history, making him a true icon for football fans and historians alike.
