Eastwood-born Jeff Astle would get in the perfect position as the cross came in before beating the defenders to the ball and heading it into the net with unstoppable power.
That always came after fans’ expectation grew while the attack unfolded. Supporters knew what Nottinghamshire's Astle could do and they loved him for it.
His bravery and skill helped him become one of West Brom’s greatest ever goalscorers and earned him the nickname of the King, reports The Mirror.
