This evocative photograph captures the intensity and passion of a pivotal moment during the 2015/16 SkyBet Championship season, as Preston North End (PNE) took on Birmingham City at St. Andrew's Trillion Trophy Stadium. Taken by renowned sports photographer Dave Kendall, the image perfectly encapsulates the determination and focus of the PNE team, with midfielder John Welsh leading the charge. The date was Tuesday, 19th April 2016, and the stakes were high for both sides. Birmingham City were fighting to secure their place in the Championship for another season, while Preston North End were aiming to maintain their push for automatic promotion. The atmosphere was electric, with the crowd on the edge of their seats as the teams went head to head. The photograph shows Welsh in the midst of a tackle, his expression a picture of concentration and resolve. The contrast between the green and white of PNE's kit and the blue of Birmingham City's shirts adds to the visual impact, while the blur of the surrounding players and the ball in mid-air creates a sense of motion and energy. Despite the challenges and pressure, Preston North End emerged victorious, with a 2-1 win that kept them in second place in the league table. This photograph serves as a reminder of the excitement and drama of that season, and the crucial role that each individual player had in helping PNE reach their ultimate goal of promotion to the Championship. Dave Kendall's photograph is a testament to the skill and artistry of sports photography, and a valuable addition to the Preston North End Football Club's archives. It is a snapshot of history, capturing the essence of a pivotal moment in the club's journey to success.
