Bob Finch, (born in Hednesford 31 August 1908, died 2000) was an association football player. He joined Hednesford Prims in 1922 and Hednesford Town in 1923, but after only a few first- team games he was approached by West Bromwich Albion, signing professional forms for them in 1925, making his debut at home to Leicester City, 27 February 1926, at the age of 17. Bob made two England International trials, one of them for the Rest v England, opposite the great Dixie Dean. On 6 March 1937, he played against Arsenal in a 6th Round FA Cup game before 64,815 Hawthorn supporters. Transferred to Swansea in May 1939, Bob managed only one game before War was declared. Bob made 216 senior appearances for Albion and 231 more for their Central League side, many as captain, winning Championship medals in 1926-27, 32-33, 33-34 and 34-35, but was unlucky in being out of the Albion team for most of the 1930-31 season when they won promotion from Division Two and the FA Cup in the same season. Bob died locally in 2000, aged 92. ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Rob Finch」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
