EDITORS COMMENTS
In this historic photograph, Princess Margaret, the younger sister of Queen Elizabeth II, is seen engaging in a warm and friendly encounter with members of the Everton Football Club before the FA Cup Final at Wembley Stadium in 1966. The FA Cup Final is one of the most prestigious events in English football, and the opportunity to meet a member of the Royal Family was an experience that the Everton players would never forget. The image captures a moment of joy and excitement as the Princess, dressed in a smart coat and hat, greets the team with a smile and a few words of encouragement. The Everton players, dressed in their blue and white striped shirts, are beaming with pride and anticipation as they stand before her, some bowing their heads in respect. The FA Cup Final of 1966 was a particularly memorable one for Everton, as they went on to win the match against Sheffield Wednesday with a thrilling 3-2 victory. This triumphant moment in the team's history was made even more special by the Royal encounter, which served as a symbol of the close connection between the monarchy and the sport of football in England. The photograph is a testament to the enduring appeal of football and the Royal Family, and the unique place they hold in the hearts of the British people. It is a reminder of a time when these two institutions came together to create moments of joy, excitement, and history.
