EDITORS COMMENTS
Manager Jimmy Hagan of West Bromwich Albion, showcasing his skills with the ball at his foot during a training session on 10th December 1963. This photo captures the essence of a turbulent time for the club, as ten first team players have requested transfers due to their alleged dissatisfaction with Manager Hagan and his training methods. In this snapshot from the Birmingham Post and Mail Archive's Memory Lane Prints collection, we witness Hagan leading players from the reserves and third team in what appears to be an intense practice session. The determination on their faces reflects both their commitment to improving their game and perhaps hints at underlying tensions within the squad. The year is set in the swinging sixties, a transformative era for football where tactics were evolving rapidly. As West Bromwich Albion navigated these changes under Hagan's leadership, it seems that not all players were aligned with his vision. Their discontent has led them to seek new opportunities elsewhere. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of how even successful teams face internal challenges behind closed doors. It immortalizes an important chapter in West Brom's history when conflicts between manager and players threatened to disrupt team dynamics.
