EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph taken by Dougie Allward on the chilly winter evening of December 29, 2013, at Ashton Gate, the home ground of Bristol City Football Club, Louis Carey etched his name into the annals of the club's history. The Sky Bet League One fixture against Stevenage FC was more than just another competitive match for the Robins; it marked a remarkable milestone for their veteran defender. With a steadfast determination and unwavering commitment, Carey had amassed an impressive total of 646 appearances for his beloved team, breaking the club record. The old record of 645 appearances, held by the legendary Bobby David, had stood for over five decades. Carey's achievement was a testament to his dedication, resilience, and longevity, both on and off the pitch. The atmosphere at Ashton Gate was electric as the fans, clad in their red and white shirts, eagerly anticipated the moment when their hero would surpass the record. The tension was palpable as the minutes ticked by, with every pass, tackle, and save from Carey bringing the crowd closer to the historic milestone. Finally, in the second half, the moment arrived. Carey, with his customary calmness and composure, played a crucial role in a defensive stand, ensuring a clean sheet for his team. The crowd erupted into a cacophony of cheers and applause, acknowledging Carey's achievement and expressing their gratitude for his unwavering commitment to the club. This photograph captures the essence of that magical moment, encapsulating the excitement, pride, and history-making significance of the occasion. It serves as a reminder of the passion, dedication, and enduring spirit that defines football and the special bond between a player and his fans.
