Wow! Remember seeing him score (against Villa in 1972) as if it were yesterday. Six years with the Albion, 1 goal in 3 throughout that period. Can't complain about that!
RIP another of my teenage heroes.

I caught the Albion bug as a result of Kit Napier, Dave Turner, Norman Gall..... but mostly the late, great Kit. I am feeling low about this. The man is dead but the legend lives on, in our memories.

Yes, indeed. A great servant for the club. very sad.

Oh so sad was my first hero at the Goldstone , great goal scorer for the Albion RIP

He was mine as well. RIP Kit. Great player.

Scored a couple straight from corners and once the opposition keeper - Alan Stephenson playing for Chesterfield I think - put the ball on the deck mistakenly thinking he had been fouled and would get the free kick only for Kit to smash it home into an empty net.

I remember him making his Albion debut and my Dad saying he was two steps ahead of the the others.
