The Baggies
Founded in 1878, West Bromwich Albion has developed a footballing identity recognised by generations of supporters as The Baggies. The Hawthorns provides the setting, with Birmingham Road End and Smethwick End among its familiar landmarks; English champions (1919/20) and FA Cup winners (5) sit prominently in the club’s record books.
