Albion captain Jonathan Greening today crowned Kevin Phillips the new 'Super' – almost five years after cult hero Bob Taylor left The Hawthorns. Phillips took his Baggies goals tally to 38 in 61 appearances on Saturday by opening the scoring in the 3-1 victory at Hull. And Greening revealed that Phillips' team-mates now refer to the former England man by the nickname made famous by former Hawthorns hero 'Super Bob'.

Phillips has enhanced his reputation with the Baggies fans further with a blistering return from injury in the last month. Read the full story in the Express & Star.
