Fans pay homage to Super Bob

An Albion side took on a team of all stars managed by former Baggies favourite Bryan Robson for Super Bob's testimonial and the 16,017 fans that turned up to show their respects for Taylor weren't let down with the Albion winning the game 7-2.

Taylor began the game in attack and opened the scoring on 8 minutes with a controversial goal. His flick from inside the box was firstly deemed offside only for the ref (an Albion fan) to award the goal.

Super Bob then left the field on 28 minutes - his knee heavily strapped - to be replaced by Lee Hughes - but that wasn't the last the Albion fans were to see of him.

Ten minutes from the end the Albion striker re-appeared and took his place in the Albion goal and to cap the night off he scored from the penalty spot in the dying seconds.
