John Templeman...

picked me up in his cab yesterday, shared some stories of back in the day, he was before my time, but my Dad remembers him well. The only thing i am a bit confused is that he said played when Mullery was manager and as far as I can see he didn't. Anyone else been in his cab? Not sure whether he got confused or was making the whole thing up!

He played from 66 to 74 and then went to Exeter. He scored the goal against Rochdale in the last match in 72 that got us promotion. 36,000 in the ground and an estimated 10,000 listening outside. He played until 81 but not for us.

He scored the very first Albion goal I ever saw
