Great print capturing a memorable moment in Birmingham City Football Club history, as players Ed Steen and Steve Claridge make their way through Birmingham Airport after a thrilling Anglo-Italian Cup clash. Taken by renowned sports photographer David Jones, this image perfectly encapsulates the excitement and anticipation that surrounded the team during their European campaigns in the late 1980s and early 1990s. The Anglo-Italian Cup was a pre-season competition between English and Italian football clubs, providing an opportunity for both sets of players to test themselves against international opposition. In this particular match, Birmingham City had put in a valiant effort against their Italian counterparts, showcasing their skill, determination, and team spirit. As the players disembarked from their flight, the media swarmed around them, eager to capture their reactions and insights on the game. Ed Steen, a versatile midfielder, and Steve Claridge, a prolific striker, were two of the standout performers on the night. Their faces, etched with a mix of exhaustion and elation, tell the story of a team that had given their all and come away with a sense of pride and accomplishment. The photograph serves as a reminder of the passion and dedication that Birmingham City fans have for their team, both on the domestic and European stages. It's a snapshot of a bygone era, when football was more about the love of the game and the camaraderie between players and fans, rather than the commercialization and corporate sponsorship that dominates the sport today. This 8x10 inch print, signed by David Jones, makes a fantastic addition to any Birmingham City fan's collection, evoking memories of a time when football was about more than just results – it was about the journey and the moments that brought fans and players together.
