EDITORS COMMENTS
In this poignant moment captured at Ibrox Stadium, the sea of blue and white scarves wave in unison, a heartfelt tribute to a beloved football hero. The year was 2003, and Rangers Football Club had just secured their 26th Scottish Cup victory. But this triumphant day was about more than just the trophies and accolades; it was a day to honor the indomitable spirit of Fernando Ricksen. Diagnosed with Motor Neurone Disease in 2013, Ricksen, a former Dutch international and a key player for Rangers from 2000 to 2006, had been forced to retire from the game he loved. The news of his illness had struck a chord with the Rangers community, who rallied together to show their support for their beloved hero. A special tribute match was organized, with proceeds going to the Fernando Ricksen Foundation, a charity set up to raise awareness and funds for Motor Neurone Disease research. As the game came to a close, Ricksen was carried off the pitch on the shoulders of his former teammates, his face etched with a mixture of emotion and determination. The print captures the raw emotion of the moment, with the stadium bathed in a golden glow as the sun sets on the horizon. The players, fans, and even Ricksen himself, are lost in the moment, united by their love for the game and their admiration for the courage and resilience of their fallen hero. This image is a testament to the power of football to bring people together, to inspire and to heal. It serves as a reminder that even in the face of adversity, the human spirit can prevail, and that the bonds formed on the pitch can last a lifetime.
