EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the intense gaze and focused expression of Morgan Maddox Morgan-Owen, a renowned Welsh amateur footballer of the early 20th century. Born in 1877, Morgan-Owen began his footballing career with Corinthian F.C. and Casuals F.C., two leading amateur clubs in England. His exceptional talent and versatility as a wing half earned him a place in the Football League, where he played for Glossop and Nottingham Forest. Morgan-Owen's footballing prowess did not go unnoticed by the Welsh National team, and he went on to represent his country 12 times between 1897 and 1907. The image of Morgan-Owen in this photograph, taken in 1910, reveals a man at the height of his athletic prime. His strong, muscular build and determined posture are testament to the rigorous training and dedication required to excel in the sport during this era. Despite the demands of professional football, Morgan-Owen's commitment to the game extended beyond the pitch. He was awarded the Distinguished Service Order (DSO) during World War I for his bravery and leadership in the face of enemy fire. This photograph, a poignant reminder of a bygone era, serves as a tribute to Morgan-Owen's enduring legacy as a Welsh footballing icon.
