EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful and poignant photograph captures the moment when Rangers Football Club lifted the Scottish Cup in 2003, marking their seventh time winning this prestigious trophy. But what sets this championship apart from the others is the unique poppy emblem adorning the chest of each player's shirt. The poppy is a symbol of remembrance and honor, worn in recognition of the sacrifices made by soldiers during times of war. The tradition of wearing poppies on football shirts during Remembrance Day ceremonies began in the UK in the 1920s, and has since become a significant part of the country's cultural heritage. In this image, taken by acclaimed sports photographer Kirk O'Rourke, the players of Rangers FC proudly display the Scottish Cup, their faces etched with determination and pride. The poppy emblems on their shirts stand out against the green and blue of the team's jerseys, serving as a powerful reminder of the importance of remembering those who have given their lives in the service of their country. The Scottish Cup Final of 2003 was held on the weekend of Remembrance Day, making the decision to wear the poppy emblems a fitting and poignant tribute. This photograph is not only a testament to Rangers FC's triumph on the field, but also to the enduring spirit of remembrance and honor that lies at the heart of the Scottish football community.
