Oh dear.
A truly wonderful player who never got the recognition he deserved north of the border.
People rightly praise the contributions of 'The King' and 'Bomber' but this lad was the engine room of Albion's 60's team.
I remember him chipping golf style a ball down the left wing for 'Chippy' to run on to. The opposition full back like me thought 'too hard that's a goal kick'. But Bobby had put so much back spin on it it stopped dead after first bounce.
A very sad day and I would just like to wish Bobby's family my sincere condolences on their sad loss.
R.I.P Bobby on your reunion with the King.

Some days I'm top dog, most days I'm just the lamp post.
