    Not a lot of people know that John Osbourne.

    Played for England schoolboys as a wing half.
    The modern game would have suited him perfect, although with him playing out from the back.
    he wouldn't have time for his fag, drink of beer or eat his sarnies.
    There was another Albion goalkeeper who converted to a full back, help me out I've forgot his name.

    I think that it was Gordon Nisbett.

    AmI right in thinking he actually made his debut for us as a keeper before converting to a full back ?

    I think he only ever played 1 game in goal and I was there to see a very shaky performance mid week at a packed Highfield Road which we lost 3-1
