Arsenal v Blackburn Rovers FA Cup semi-final at Leicester
A jolly crowd of football fans at the Leicester ground for the semi-final of the Football Association cup between Blackburn Rovers and Arsenal in March 1928. According to The Graphic, " The uproar when Arsenal were beaten by 1-0 could have been heard over half the shire, and was echoed in the crowded trains which bore the disappointed supporters of the London team home." It being 1928, football crowds comprised almost exclusively of men, as evidenced in this photograph.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This jubilant crowd of football fans gathered at Leicester's football ground for the FA Cup semi-final match between Blackburn Rovers and Arsenal in March 1928. The excitement was palpable as the two teams faced off in this highly anticipated fixture. With rattles in hand and umbrellas raised to shield them from the elements, the enthusiastic supporters of Blackburn Rovers cheered and shouted, their faces etched with happiness and anticipation. The FA Cup semi-final was a significant event in the football calendar, and the uproar when Arsenal were defeated by a solitary goal could be heard over half the shire. The disappointed Arsenal supporters, many of whom are captured in this photograph, made their way home on crowded trains, the atmosphere on board a reflection of the mood at the ground. Football crowds in the 1920s were almost exclusively male, and this photograph offers a glimpse into the passion and camaraderie that defined the sporting culture of the time. The energy and enthusiasm of the fans, their faces a mix of elation and determination, is a testament to the enduring appeal of football and the power of community that it brings.
