The Dead Thread



I remember as a young child in the 70s seeing Cyrille play for West Brom and being amazed because he was black. That just shows how much prejudice was still around at that time. Shocking now when you think of it. He very quickly became one of my favourite non-Everton players because he was so fast and powerful.

59 is no age though. RIP Cyrille

Yes, the dignity he showed when racism was at its height at football grounds, quite something.
