EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Eric Harlow, we are transported back to the 1970s, a golden era for football. The image showcases Charlton Athletic footballer Derek Hales in a moment of respite after an intense meeting at a Paddington hotel. Dressed impeccably in his stylish coat, Hales exudes confidence and determination as he enjoys a cup of tea. His moustache adds an air of sophistication to his already striking appearance. It is evident that this meeting holds great significance for him, as he prepares to appeal against Charlton's decision to terminate his contract. The Football League serves as the backdrop for this crucial event in Hales' career. As the minutes turn into hours during their deliberations, tension fills the room. Every detail matters; every word spoken could shape Hales' future on the pitch. Harlow's expertly composed photograph captures not only the physicality of sport but also its emotional weight. We can almost feel the anticipation radiating from Hales as he awaits his fate. This snapshot freezes time and allows us to witness a pivotal moment in football history – one that will forever be etched in both Charlton Athletic's legacy and Derek Hale's personal journey within the beautiful game.
