EDITORS COMMENTS
In this poignant photograph taken by Dougie Allward on Boxing Day 2012, the dejected expression on the face of Derek McInnes, manager of Bristol City Football Club, speaks volumes. The scene unfolds at Ashton Gate, the historic home ground of the Robins, where the much-anticipated Championship match against Watford was called off due to a waterlogged pitch. The image captures McInnes in the rain, deep in thought, as he gazes out over the sodden turf. The disappointment etched on his face is palpable, as he processes the news that his team's hard work and preparation for the game would go unrewarded. The postponement was a bitter pill to swallow, especially given the importance of the fixture in the context of the 2012-13 Championship season. The Old Boys' Day, which was to be celebrated on this occasion, added an extra layer of significance to the game. Fans had eagerly anticipated the opportunity to see their team in action, and the prospect of a win against Watford would have been a welcome boost for the morale of the club and its supporters. Despite the disappointment, McInnes and his team remained resilient. They regrouped and focused their energy on the next fixture, determined to bounce back and continue their fight for a place at the top of the Championship table. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the unpredictability of football and the resilience required to navigate the ups and downs of the beautiful game.
