Some great points made on this thread, all absolutely valid. I started following the Albion during the 1967-68 season as an 8 year old and I thought that we had a wonderful side then and still believe that today. Without doubt, we had a great cup squad during the mid to late 60's and during that period there was far more glamour in the cup competitions than winning the league. As for the players rating, Astle, Brown, Clarke, Hope and Osborne were first rate players of the highest pedigree. Very happy memories.
