EDITORS COMMENTS
In this poignant moment captured at Ashton Gate Stadium on May 7, 2011, an emotional Steve Lansdown bids farewell to the Bristol City Football Club community as he steps down as Chairman after a decade of dedicated service. The scene unfolds following the Championship match between Bristol City and Hull City, with the old Ashton Gate stands filled with a sea of supporters who have come to pay their respects to the man who had given his all to the team. Lansdown, a Bristol native and lifelong fan, had taken over the club in 2004, leading it through financial struggles and ultimately guiding it back to the Championship. His tenure was marked by a commitment to the club's heritage and a focus on nurturing young talent, instilling a sense of pride and unity among the fanbase. As the final whistle blew, signaling the end of the 2010-2011 season, Lansdown made his way to the pitch, surrounded by players, staff, and fans. With tears in his eyes, he addressed the crowd, expressing his gratitude for their support and his love for the club. The image of Lansdown, bathed in the warm glow of the stadium lights, stands as a testament to his unwavering dedication and the indelible impact he left on the team and its community. This photograph, taken by Joe Meredith, encapsulates the raw emotion and sense of closure that filled the air that day as the chapter on Steve Lansdown's tenure as Chairman came to a close, leaving behind a legacy that will be cherished for years to come.
