EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful and poignant photograph captures the moment of triumph and reverence as the Rangers Football Club team proudly donned their Poppy Shirts during the Scottish Cup Final of 2003. The team, led by manager Alex McLeish, had just secured their place in history as champions, but this victory was not just about soccer. The poppies emblazoned on their shirts served as a tribute to the fallen heroes of the armed forces, honoring their sacrifices and remembering the lives lost during wars and conflicts. The Scottish Cup, a symbol of excellence and perseverance in Scottish football, gleams in the foreground, reflecting the team's hard-earned achievement. The players, their faces etched with determination and pride, stand united, their poppy-adorned shirts forming a sea of red and white. The stadium roars with applause and admiration, the atmosphere electric with the spirit of remembrance and camaraderie. This image encapsulates the essence of the Poppy Shirt tradition, which began in the United Kingdom in 1921, as a symbol of respect and gratitude for the fallen soldiers. The Rangers Football Club's adoption of this tradition during the Scottish Cup Final of 2003 was a powerful statement of respect and solidarity, reminding us all of the importance of remembering and honoring the sacrifices made by our brave men and women in uniform. Photographed by Kirk O'Rourke, this image is a testament to the enduring power of sports as a unifying force, bringing people together in times of celebration and remembrance. A true masterpiece, it stands as a reminder of the indomitable spirit of the game, and the importance of remembering those who have given their lives in the service of their country.
