EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from Memory Lane Prints, we witness the jubilant celebration of a happy hypnotist named Romark. The image captures the essence of his spellbinding victory over football boos and showcases his immense power. The photograph commemorates an unforgettable moment in football history when Romark claimed responsibility for Crystal Palace's defeat against Southampton in the FA Cup semi-final on Saturday, 3rd April 1976. It was believed that his curse had played a significant role in knocking Big Mal's team out of the competition. Romark, also known as Ronald Markham, is depicted wearing a halo adorned with Southampton Saints' colors on 6th April 1976. This visual representation symbolizes both his triumph and divine intervention. Interestingly, Romark's curse was allegedly cast upon Crystal Palace after their manager failed to keep an appointment at his office located in London's prestigious Harley Street. The consequences were devastating for Big Mal and his team. This snapshot not only captures the intensity of sports but also highlights the mystical elements that can influence its outcome. With this mesmerizing image frozen in time, we are reminded of how powerful belief systems can be within our sporting world during the vibrant era of the 1970s.
