EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to a historic moment in Manchester football history. It captures the intense rivalry between two of England's most renowned clubs, Manchester City and Manchester United, during the 1955/1956 First Division season. The scene unfolds at Old Trafford on December 31st, 1955. In this team group shot, we see the determined faces of the Manchester City players as they gather before their clash with their arch-rivals. Standing tall at the back are D. Ewing, Ken Barnes, Bert Trautmann - an iconic goalkeeper who played through injury during the FA Cup final that same year - W. Leivers, Roy Paul, and Roy Little. The front row showcases Billy Spurdle alongside J. Hayes, R. Johnstone - known for his exceptional goal-scoring abilities - J. Dyson, and R. Clarke completing this formidable lineup. The image is a testament to both teams' dedication and passion for football during that era when matches were fiercely contested battles fought with grit and determination. Preserved by Colorsport Images from Provincial Press archives, this photograph allows us to relive a significant moment in sporting history while paying homage to these legendary players who left an indelible mark on English football.
