Gary Lineker shares one-word verdict on West Brom kit reveal as Jeff Astle tribute made

Gary Lineker has taken to Twitter to share a one-word verdict on the West Brom kit launch as a tribute to Jeff Astle was made.

The ex-professional footballer and Match of the Day host simply said "lovely" when responding to the Baggies' post on 12 July.

Sharing his thoughts on the video to his 8.9 million followers will no doubt significantly increase the number of people the heartfelt tribute will reach.

Lovely

Lineker is quite right with his verdict on the kit launch, it is absolutely lovely and a fitting tribute to a Baggies legend.

The club have clearly taken a lot of time to put the video together and it seems to be getting the response it deserves online from West Brom fans and the overall football community.

The fact that someone with as many followers as Lineker has also tweeted about will ensure it reaches an even bigger audience than the club could ever have imagined and that will mean a lot to so many people.

There also looks to be a lot of great feedback coming in about the kit as well, so there is no doubt that fans will be flocking to get their hands on the new shirt at the earliest opportunity.

There has been a lot of uncertainty for the club's fans in recent times, but at least this is a moment they can enjoy.

In other West Brom news, there has been "good interest" from a number of parties interested in investing in the club.
