It seems that it's only stats that matter to the numpty Fox.
In that case i'd rate Derek Kevan as possibly our best ever striker. He scored a goal every 1.66 games for Albion. Lineker couldn't even manage a goal every 2 games for Leicester!
Just sayin'
Anyway history of football is irrelevant apparently
Come on boys, Gordon Banks came through the ranks at Chesterfield and then spent a long time at Leicester before transferring to Stoke. All his best years as England's goalie were while he was a Leicester player. I also saw a 17 year old Peter Shilton for the first time at The Hawthorns circa September 1966 or 1967 in a 1-0 win for Albion (a rare Clive Clark header) and what a great keeper he was. I might as well go for the hat-trick and say Gary Lineker was pretty good too - I saw him score a hat-trick at Wembley against Poland I think it was. I think he was playing for Everton then, not sure - I'd have to check.
Shiltons best times were at Southampton

Wikipedia tells us that the original Wet Bum logo was a turdus on a crossbar, which then became a turdus on a twig.

"Wikipedia tell us"?
You probably wrote it.
I associate Shilton with Forest!
Turdus is the latin for the thrush family
The thrush on your badge is Turdus Philomelos
Philomelos is latin for 'preference to cross bars' from what i can make out

Haven't you only played three games. ... Now you're telling us Berahino is a world beater because he is your top goal scorer after three games?
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Someone said he could get into the full England squad if he has a decent season, and someone else said he's our top scorer so far this season.
Who mentioned anything about him being a world beater?
Oh yeah - that was you.
You obviously didn't do any Latin at school, Cinci.
You're a bad as Bute, and that's saying something.
"West Bromwich Albion's main club badge dates back to the late 1880s, when the club's secretary Tom Smith suggested that a throstle (turdus) sitting on a crossbar be adopted for the badge. Since then, the club badge has always featured a throstle (turdus), usually on a blue and white striped shield, although the crossbar was replaced with a hawthorn branch at some point after the club's move to The Hawthorns. The throstle (turdus) was chosen because the public house in which the team used to change kept a pet thrush (turdus) in a cage."
Wikipedia: "The generic name, Turdus, is the Latin for thrush"
"The Whorethorns fans, sick of the sight of desperately poor football, began chanting, "We're shíte" - which became "túrds us", eventually evolving to the colloquial "turdus". This prompted the club to develop the now recognised logo of a turdus (thrush) on a stick. (Not to be confused with an ice-lolly.)

Funny isn't it. It's OK for them to draw the conclusion that we're doomed based on 3 games but it's not OK for us to draw the conclusion that Berahino might be good enough for England if he continues in the same vein.
Do all these Dingles have split personalities?!

Meanwhile TWTD is in the corner sniggering at his own weird attempts at humour
Google Translate is your friend...
thrush on a twig = turdi in spumam
thrush on a branch = turdi in germine
thrush on a bit of wood = turdi in paullum silvae
Those were the days = Keepus off in drugious
Leave him be with his little name-calling, Coxy. He's giving us his best shot, and it's all he's got.
Does a club badge have any relevance to a supporters actual life?
I mean, does bute lick his own knackers, roll in other peoples schite, dry hump chair legs and small trees in public and attack small children just because his club chooses to use a dog head?
There's good odds going here....
He certainly thinks he's the dog's bóllocks when it comes to calling people names.
I can see bute giving it his all in the local park....tongue hanging out....big wet nose....
