NEWS, NOTES & MILESTONES
2004 -
Albion break their transfer record for the second time in two
months
by signing
Cardiff
City's Welsh international striker Robert Earnshaw. The 23 year old put
pen to paper on a three year deal with a further year in the club's favour.
The Baggies paid the Bluebirds an initial fee of £3 million which could
rise to £3.625 million dependent on performance-related add-ons.
2000 - On trial Norwegian under-21 midfielder Frode Fermann plays for
Albion reserves in their 1-0 defeat at home to Barnsley.
1919 - Baggies' legend Tommy Magee makes the first of his 434 first team
appearances for the club.
BIRTHS
1971 - Jordao
Portuguese midfielder Jordao joined
Albion in August 2000 from
Sporting Braga for a reported fee of £350,000. He was a key figure in his first
two seasons at The Hawthorns, helping the club to the League Division One
play-offs in 2000/01 and promotion to the Premier League in 2001/02. At the
higher level Jordao struggled and made just three substitute appearances. He
returned to Portugal
in January 2004, signing for Estrela Amadora where he finished his career.
1968 - Wayne Dobbins
Bromsgrove-born Wayne Dobbins joined
Albion as an apprentice in June
1984, signing professionally for the club two years later. He made his first
team debut as a substitute during the early stages of the 1986/87 season in a
2-0 win over Sheffield United. The midfielder turned right-back spent five
seasons in and around the Albion first team squad but never pinned down a
regular starting place, leaving for Torquay United in the summer of 1991 after
making 55 appearances for the Baggies. After just one year at Plainmoor, Dobbins
left to join Yeovil Town
where he stayed for three seasons before returning to the
Midlands with
Gloucester City, Redditch United, Stourbridge and finally Evesham United.
