EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the jubilant moments following Preston North End's FA Cup victory at Wembley Stadium in 1938. The team, dressed in their iconic blue and white stripes, proudly hold aloft the coveted FA Cup trophy, symbolizing their triumph in the world's oldest football competition. The boys in the image, their faces filled with excitement and awe, are likely fans who were granted the unique opportunity to be close to their heroes on this special day. The FA Cup Final of 1938 was a historic occasion for Preston North End, marking their second FA Cup win in just three years. The team, led by legendary manager Bob Jack, defeated Huddersfield Town 1-0 in a tightly contested match, with Stanley Matthews scoring the decisive goal. The victory came during a period of great success for Preston North End, who were also league champions in the 1937-38 season. The photograph transports us back to the 1930s, a time when football held a special place in the hearts of the British public. The era, often referred to as the 'Golden Age of Football,' was characterized by passionate supporters, thrilling matches, and a sense of community. This image encapsulates the spirit of that time, offering a glimpse into the past and reminding us of the enduring appeal of the beautiful game. Terry Parker's photograph is a testament to the power of sports to bring people together and create lasting memories. It stands as a reminder of Preston North End's rich footballing heritage and the joy that football continues to bring to fans around the world.
