Taylor: 'We needed a striker'

West Bromwich Albion

Available for over a year

Albion legend Bob Taylor hopes new striker Barney Stewart can become the regular goalscorer they've been missing in recent seasons. The 22-year-old has arrived from Falkirk after scoring 18 goals in Scottish football last season. Taylor, who scored 131 goals in his careers discusses the summer signing, as well as his thoughts ahead of James Morrison's first full campaign as a head coach. But first the former striker spoke to Daz Hale about an Abseil Challenge that he's doing at The Hawthorns to raise money for the Albion Foundation. He'll be abseiling down the Birmingham Road Stand on Saturday, July 18 and Baggies fans can take part as well. Image: Getty
