EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph, Mark Wilson of Bristol City FC is captured in the heat of the action during the Bristol derby at Ashton Gate Stadium on August 4, 2012. The image was taken during the Louis Carey Testimonial, a pre-season friendly match between local rivals, Bristol City and Bristol Rovers. The Old City's Mark Wilson, a key player in the team's defense, is shown in the midst of a tense moment as he challenges an opponent from the visiting team. The atmosphere at Ashton Gate Stadium was electric, with both sets of fans passionately supporting their teams in this highly anticipated derby match. The 2012-13 season was an important one for Wilson, who had established himself as a first-team regular in the Championship. This pre-season friendly provided an opportunity for him to get some valuable game time under his belt before the start of the competitive campaign. The Louis Carey Testimonial, named after the former Bristol City player and club legend, was a fitting occasion for this friendly encounter. Carey, a popular figure in the city, had spent over a decade at Ashton Gate and was widely respected by fans and players alike. The testimonial match was an opportunity for the community to come together and celebrate his career, while also raising funds for local charities. The photograph, taken by Joe Meredith, captures the intensity and passion of the game, as well as the unique atmosphere of a derby match. The image is a testament to the enduring rivalry between the two Bristol clubs and the excitement that comes with a local derby.
