As an away fan I obviously won't vote in this poll but, from the outside looking in, it could only be Peter Ward surely?

Hans Kraay for me, but ask this in ten years time and Spanish Dave will be right up there.

What about Tommy cook, Charlie Webb Jack Doran, Pom pom whiting, Norman gall,,,, got to be worth a mention !!!
Ward was a hero for a few brief years in a an expensive squad at the time. As Tommy Cook was a hero to so many over a longer period of time in a poorer squad, if we could watch videos I'm sure he would be up there surely.....
It wasn't an expensive squad when he first broke into it. In later years maybe.

He wasn't a 'cult hero' as such though. He's more of an all-time great. I'd say they are different things.
Exactly. John Crumplin is probably the archetypal Albion cult hero (for someone of my age) .
So much wrong with this thread

Definitely, it's all over the shop.
Of our Amex era for example, you would say Ulloa was a HERO whereas Vicente has to be a CULT HERO.

Abso-bloody-exactly. Just looking at my avatar, it struck how much 'marley' looks like a subbuteo figure.

Perry Digweed?
Funny name, played in tights and lost a bollock for the cause. Is that cult hero or just plain old hero?

CULT! equals unlikely, strange, unexpected, not the most sung about player in the history of the club for goodness sake.
