The throstle was chosen because the <a href="/wiki/Public_house" class="mw-redirect" title="Public house">public house</a> in which the team used to change kept a pet thrush in a cage. It also gave rise to Albion's early nickname, <i>the Throstles</i>. The hawthorn bush is also a favourite bush of throstles, which were regularly seen on the pre-stadium estate and local area. As late as the 1930s, a caged throstle was placed beside the touchline during matches and it was said that it only used to sing if Albion were winning.<sup id="cite_ref-McOwan_p15_Throstle_67-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-McOwan_p15_Throstle-67"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>67<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> In 1979, an effigy of a throstle was erected above the half-time scoreboard of the Woodman corner at the Hawthorns,<sup id="cite_ref-69" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-69"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>69<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> and was returned to the same area of the ground following redevelopment in the early 2000s.<sup id="cite_ref-70" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-70"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>70<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p><p>In 1975, a version of the badge (on a <a href="/wiki/Roundel" title="Roundel">roundel</a> rather than a shield) was granted by the <a href="/wiki/College_of_Arms" title="College of Arms">College of Arms</a> to the Football League for licensing to the club.
