Great moment captured in this print as Leighton Baines leads Everton out onto the pitch for their pre-season friendly against Birmingham City on 30 July 2011. The image, taken by renowned football photographer Dave Howarth, showcases the determination and focus in Baines' eyes as he proudly holds the club's crest aloft, ready to lead his teammates into battle. This moment marked the beginning of the 2011-12 season for Everton, as they prepared to face off against their opponents in the final pre-season friendly before the start of the Premier League campaign. The atmosphere at St. Andrew's was electric, with both sets of fans eagerly anticipating the start of the new season. Baines, who had been a key player for Everton since joining the club in 2007, was a natural choice to lead the team out. His experience, skill, and leadership qualities made him a valuable asset to the squad, and he was widely regarded as one of the best left-backs in the Premier League at the time. Despite the friendly nature of the match, the players gave it their all, with both teams putting on an impressive display of football. The game ended in a 1-1 draw, but the real winners were the fans, who were treated to an exciting and entertaining pre-season fixture. This print is a reminder of that special moment when Leighton Baines led Everton out onto the pitch, ready to face the challenges of the new season. It's a testament to the passion and dedication of the players and the fans, and a reminder of the excitement and anticipation that comes with the start of a new football season.
