EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the England Football Team in 1895, as they prepared to take on their rivals, Scotland. The image, taken during the Victorian era, showcases the team's determination and camaraderie as they gathered for a group portrait before the highly anticipated match. The team, consisting of Jackson, Lodge, Reid (Referee), Sutcliffe, Lythgoe, Reynolds, Holt, Needham, Crabtree, Hughes, Bassett, Bloomer, Goodall, Gosling, and Smith, are dressed in their footballing attire of the time, with heavy woolen jerseys and high-top boots. The team's captain, Jack Cock, who is not present in the photograph, would have led the team onto the field. The referee, Reid, stands proudly between the two teams, ensuring a fair and just game. The players, a mix of experienced veterans and promising newcomers, display a range of emotions, from focused intensity to lighthearted banter. This photograph offers a unique glimpse into the world of football during the late 1800s, a time when the sport was rapidly gaining popularity and evolving into the global phenomenon it is today. The England-Scotland match was an important fixture in the early history of football, with both teams vying for supremacy on the pitch. The photograph serves as a testament to the passion and dedication of these early footballers, who paved the way for future generations of players and fans alike.
