Albion greats to honour Sir Bobby
Albion greats Derek Kevan, Don Howe and Graham Williams will return to the Hawthorns tomorrow to lead the tributes to their old friend Sir Bobby Robson.
The legendary trio will be among a group of 14 former Hawthorns team-mates of Sir Bobby, who will be presented to supporters before a minute's applause in his honour.
Albion have invited Sir Bobby's ex-colleagues to tomorrow's 5.30pm clash, when the club will be paying a full tribute to his life and career.
Goalscoring legend Kevan, FA Cup-winning captain Williams, and iconic full-back Howe will be joined by Brian Whitehouse, Roy Horobin, Alec Jackson, John Lovatt, Brian Macready, Stuart Williams, Stan Jones, Keith Smith, David Burnside and Chuck Drury, all of whom played alongside Sir Bobby during his six-year Albion career.
They will be joined at pitchside shortly before the pre-kick-off minute's applause by Ray Wilson, chairman of the West Bromwich Albion Former Players' Association.
The Express & Star has joined the tributes to Sir Bobby by producing a special poster to commemorate his illustrious career.
The posters, which depict Sir Bobby's playing and management days, will be available to fans outside the Hawthorns tomorrow along with a special edition of tomorrow's paper produced especially for the occasion.
