EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph, the energy and passion of Championship football is palpable as Robbie Savage, Derby County's midfield maestro, prepares to take his leave from the pitch for the final time. The scene is set at Pride Park, Derby, England, on the 30th of April, 2011, during the Derby County vs. Bristol City match. Savage, a fan favorite known for his tenacity and charisma, is seen in the heat of the moment, locked in a verbal confrontation with Brett Pitman of Bristol City. As the first team season of 10-11 draws to a close, Savage, an old hand in the game, faces his last game for Derby County. The tension between the two teams is high, with both sides vying for position in the Championship standings. Savage, undeterred by the occasion, remains true to form, giving as good as he gets in a heated exchange with Pitman. The photograph captures the raw emotion of the moment, with Savage's intense gaze and raised fist, and Pitman's defensive posture and determined expression. The backdrop of the bustling Pride Park stadium adds to the sense of excitement and anticipation. Despite the rivalry between the teams, the image serves as a poignant reminder of the enduring passion and spirit of football. As Savage's volley of abuse sails through the air, the crowd roars in approval, immortalizing this moment in the annals of Derby County history. This photograph, by Joe Meredith, is a testament to the power of sport to evoke strong emotions and create lasting memories.
