ON THE FIFTH DAY OF CHRISTMAS Albion gave to us...one of the greatest games in the club's history.
30th December 1978, and the high-flying Baggies faced a tough trip to Manchester United. The country was snowbound in the grip of Arctic temperatures, but Albion's glowing brand of adventurous football could warm the heart of any fan.
Big Ron had built the finest West Brom team for generations with a perfect blend of invention, drive and determination.
Up front the mighty Cyrille Regis banged in the goals, the fleet-footed Laurie Cunningham dazzled defenders on the wing, battling Bryan Robson commanded the midfield, and bustling Bomber Brown wreaked havoc all over the pitch. This 8-goal thriller at Old Trafford marked their finest hour with a performance that ranks as one of the most breathtaking ever seen at that famous stadium.
For Albion fans it was the perfect Christmas gift: 5 golden goals, 4 different scorers, 3 degrees below zero, 2 points for the win, and a game never to be forgotten!
Including exclusive interviews with Ron Atkinson, Cyrille Regis, Tony Brown, Len Cantello and Bryan Robson.
