EDITORS COMMENTS
In this poignant photograph, taken during the Ladbrokes Championship match between Rangers FC and Alloa Athletic at Ibrox Stadium in Glasgow, fans and players come together in a heartfelt tribute to honor the memory of Fernando Ricksen. The Dutch-born footballer, who spent three successful years at Rangers from 2000 to 2003, was diagnosed with Motor Neurone Disease in 2013 and passed away in March 2020. At half-time of the game, a collection was taken to raise funds for the Fernando Ricksen Foundation, an organization set up to support those affected by Motor Neurone Disease and their families. The photograph captures the moment of solidarity as players and fans alike make their donations, with many wearing poppies in remembrance of Ricksen and the sacrifices made by service personnel. The backdrop of the image is the iconic trophy cabinet at Ibrox Stadium, adorned with the Scottish Cup won by Rangers in 2003, a trophy that Ricksen played a significant role in securing during his time with the team. The image serves as a poignant reminder of the power of football to bring people together in times of need and to honor the memory of those who have made a lasting impact on the game. The photograph, taken by Kirk O'Rourke, captures the essence of the moment and the spirit of the Rangers community as they come together to support a worthy cause in memory of a beloved former player. The image is a testament to the enduring legacy of Fernando Ricksen and the impact he had on the game of football in Scotland.
