In 1998 , Billy Bassett and Bryan Robson were named among the list of Football League 100 Legends , along with Arthur Rowley , Geoff Hurst and Johnny Giles . Bryan Robson was also an inaugural inductee into the English Football Hall of Fame in 2002 , to be joined two years later by Geoff Hurst . Bobby Robson , a player with Albion , has also been inducted , although this was for his achievements as a manager . In 1919 – 20 , Fred Morris became the first Albion player to finish as top goalscorer in Division One , a feat which has since been repeated by Ronnie Allen , Derek Kevan , Jeff Astle and Tony Brown . Brown , who holds the club records for goals and appearances , was voted into the PFA Centenary Hall of Fame in July 2007 .
