Laurie Cunningham, quite simply the best player I have ever seen. I don't think I missed a single game he, cyrelle or Brendan played in and the 5-3 night v man ure is my greatest memory. Had the honour of meeting Laurie a couple of times during his time at the Albion and he really was a genuinely nice bloke. The three of them are undoubtedly responsible for making the Albion fans the most tolerant, accepting and unracist (if that's a word) fans in the country, certainly back in the late 70s early 80s.
Just as an aside, I actually got to meet big cyrelle for the first time at the villa game a few weeks ago and as a 50 something it was still fantastic to meet one of my boyhood heroes and introduce my 11 year old son to him. Another top bloke.
