EDITORS COMMENTS
"This poignant photograph captures the Rangers Football Club's Scottish Cup Champions team of 2003, proudly wearing their poppy-adorned shirts in honor and remembrance of the fallen soldiers who sacrificed their lives for our freedom. The Scottish Premiership giants clinched the coveted trophy on May 3, 2003, with a thrilling 3-2 victory over Celtic at Hampden Park. However, this triumphant moment was not just about soccer glory, but also about paying tribute to the brave men and women who have served and continue to serve in the armed forces. The poppy, a symbol of Remembrance Day and the sacrifices made by soldiers, was prominently displayed on the left chest of each player's shirt. The team's captain, Barry Ferguson, led the way, with a poppy proudly pinned to his armband. The sea of poppies in the stadium, worn by both players and fans, created a powerful and moving sight, as the crowd observed a minute's silence before the game in honor of the fallen. The 2003 Scottish Cup Final was a poignant reminder of the importance of remembering the sacrifices made by our military personnel. The Rangers Football Club and its fans showed their respect and gratitude by wearing the poppy on their shirts, creating a powerful and unifying symbol of remembrance that went beyond the soccer pitch and touched the hearts of the community. This photograph is a testament to the enduring spirit of honor, remembrance, and unity that exists between the game of soccer and the armed forces."
