EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a pivotal moment in the 2001-02 Nationwide League Division One season, as Coventry City's Lee Hughes prepares to take a corner kick against Nottingham Forest at the City Ground. The image, taken by renowned sports photographer Steve Mitchell, transports us back to the thrilling matches of the early 21st century. The year was 2001, and Coventry City, managed by Gordon Strachan, were holding their own in the top tier of English football. Hughes, a prolific striker, was a key player for the Sky Blues, and his presence on the pitch was always a source of excitement for fans. In this game against Nottingham Forest, Hughes was not only contributing as a player but also taking on the role of a set-piece specialist. The atmosphere at the City Ground was electric, with both sets of supporters eagerly anticipating the outcome of this crucial clash. The leaves on the trees outside the stadium were beginning to change color, signaling the approach of winter, but the intensity of the game remained undiminished. As Hughes positions himself at the corner flag, the focus is on him. The opposing team's defenders are on high alert, while Coventry City's teammates form a defensive wall, ready to spring into action. The anticipation is palpable, and the tension in the air is almost tangible. This photograph is a snapshot of a bygone era in English football, a time when passion, skill, and determination were the driving forces behind the beautiful game. It serves as a reminder of the excitement and unpredictability that comes with following a football team, and the enduring memories that can be created on the pitch.
