Albion honour players lost in WWI

Brunt and Rodriguez plant trees for war heroes

CHRIS Brunt and Jay Rodriguez have added their tribute in this Remembrance season after planting trees at the Club’s Palm Training Ground in memory of the nation’s fallen.

The tree planting is part of the national campaign Football Remembers, which features a partnership between the Woodland Trust and the National Football Musuem’s For Club and Country project.

As the nation commemorates the centenary of the end of the 1914-18 war, Albion have taken delivery of two trees to remember the two players who were killed in action after leaving The Hawthorns to answer their nation’s call.
