What about Frank Griffin who scored the winning goal against Preston NE in the Cup Final of 1954.?
and another blast from the past:-
Tommy Glidden (1922- 1936) played over 400 games for the Baggies and was the skipper for two Cup Finals in the 1930's

Beefy - El Ghanassi was "E"! I mentioned him for the "E" week.
Tony Grealish - a midfielder who liked a robust challenge or two!
Another midfielder - Paul Groves!

Mark Grew. Our very good reserve keeper to Godden. Actually worked with my dad at Tipton Steel Stockholders as a sales rep to supplement his Baggies wages. He played in first team many times and got me all my Albion Autographs.
And not so pointless Zoltan Gera....... LEGEND

El in Nigeria means simply "the"
So is name is Yassine the Ghanassi in English
So I say you cheated by putting him in the "E"
Its definitely in the G category

2 players I liked, Sean Gregan signed from Preston, midfielder turned centre half as I remember and Phil Gilchrist centre half from I think, Oxford. Played around the same time too

Bruce Grobbelaar
Only ever saw old wobbly legs play for Liverpool but he did play for Albion reserves at least once as a trialist when big Ron was manager.

Di in Italian, Del in Spanish, Von in German, Van in Dutch, O in Irish. All are prefixes meaning the/of. There are many more examples lol. DD

Am I too late to enter 'Grandad' in the G category, or is that unfair to GMac? More to the point (but admittedly off topic) have we had an older player than him in modern times?

Don't know about outfield players, but didn't Dean Kiely play in goal in a cup match when he was goal keeping coach? He must have been late thirties or even 40!
