EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from The Northcliffe Collection takes us back to a moment of pure footballing nostalgia. In 1978, amidst the historic grounds of Old Trafford, we witness the legendary Manchester United F. C. manager Tommy Docherty being escorted by mounted police through a sea of enthusiastic fans. The image captures the essence of a bygone era, where passion for sport was palpable in every frame. As Docherty stands tall on his way to the pitch, one can almost feel the electric atmosphere that surrounded him. The adoring crowd eagerly reaches out towards their beloved manager, their faces filled with excitement and anticipation. The contrast between the monochromatic tones adds an air of timelessness to this snapshot from history. It serves as a reminder that even in an era without color photography or modern technology, moments like these were etched into memory forever. Docherty's impact on Manchester United cannot be overstated; he led them through both triumphs and challenges during his tenure at the helm. This photograph encapsulates not only his significance but also represents an era when footballers were revered as heroes and stadiums overflowed with ardent supporters. John Sherbourne's expert eye has perfectly captured this iconic scene, allowing us to relive those cherished memories once again. Whether you are a fan of sport or simply appreciate historical views frozen in time, this print is sure to evoke feelings of nostalgia and admiration for our shared sporting heritage
