EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative image captured by Joe Meredith on the chilly afternoon of December 26, 2012, at Ashton Gate Stadium, the tension and disappointment of the Championship match between Bristol City and Watford are palpable. The photograph depicts Watford's midfielder, Jonathan Hogg, in a moment of frustration and despair as he slides into the muddy pitch, surrounded by a sea of water, with the Watford fans in the background. The scene unfolds as the referee, Michael Naylor, makes the difficult decision to call off the highly anticipated derby game due to a waterlogged pitch. The heavy rainfall that had persisted throughout the day had rendered the playing surface unplayable, leaving both teams and fans disheartened. The old, first team photograph from the 12-13 season is a poignant reminder of the unpredictability and challenges that come with professional football. The image encapsulates the raw emotions and determination of the players, as well as the unwavering support of the fans, even in the face of adversity. Despite the game being postponed, the spirit of competition and camaraderie between the two teams and their supporters remained undeterred. This photograph serves as a testament to the enduring passion and dedication of football fans, and the resilience of the players, who continue to push through the challenges and uncertainties that come with the beautiful game.
