Great image capturing a special moment in the history of Preston North End Football Club at the Deepdale stadium on the 6th of April, 2002. The scene shows Sir Tom Finney, a legendary figure in English football, leading out both teams to the pitch on his 75th birthday. Finney, who is fondly remembered as "The Preston Plumber" for his humble origins and exceptional skills on the field, is seen here in his iconic blue and white stripes, looking determined and proud as he prepares to kick off the Nationwide Division 1 match against Coventry City. The players of both teams follow closely behind, with their focus on the upcoming game momentarily shifted towards the revered figure leading them out. The atmosphere is electric, with the excited cheers and applause from the spectators in the background adding to the sense of occasion. This photograph, taken by the skilled lens of Tony O'Brien, encapsulates the passion, tradition, and community spirit that defines football culture in the United Kingdom. It serves as a reminder of the enduring legacy of Sir Tom Finney and his continued influence on the game he loved so much.
