March 2:
After wins against Chesterfield, Leeds United and Crystal Palace, Town travelled to the Hawthorns on this date in 1929 to take on West Bromwich Albion in the quarter finals of the FA Cup. the Baggies had beaten our West Riding neighbours, Bradford Park Avenue in the last round and so excitement must've been high as the mighty Town came to town. So much so that 52,333 spectators turned up for this one.
The Baggies were in the 2nd Division back then and the visit of our brave lads would've had them down as underdogs and so getting a 1-1 draw was a good result for them. George Brown scored for Town and the replay is set for the 6th of March, back at Leeds Road.
