EDITORS COMMENTS

This evocative photograph captures the intense focus and determination of Fred Harris as he leads Birmingham City's attack against Tottenham Hotspur during a Wartime League South football match. The image, taken by the renowned sports photography company Barratts, transports us back in time to the mid-1940s when football provided a much-needed distraction from the hardships of wartime. Fred Harris, an English professional footballer, is depicted here in his Birmingham City jersey, number 11 proudly displayed on his back. His strong, athletic build and steely gaze convey a sense of purpose and resolve as he prepares to receive the ball from a teammate. The contrast between the pristine white football pitch and the grey, overcast sky adds to the dramatic atmosphere of the scene. The Wartime League South was formed in 1939 as a response to the suspension of the Football League due to the outbreak of World War II. The competition provided an opportunity for professional footballers to continue playing the sport they loved while also raising morale and funds for the war effort. The matches were played in various locations, including military bases and football grounds, and attracted large crowds who were eager to support their teams and enjoy a brief respite from the realities of wartime life. This photograph is a testament to the enduring power of football to bring people together and provide a sense of hope and normalcy in challenging times. It also serves as a reminder of the rich history and traditions of Birmingham City Football Club, which continues to inspire and unite fans to this day.
