John Talbut Death | John Talbut Obituary – It is with great sadness that we report the passing of the former defender John Talbut. John Talbut, one of our famed 1968 FA Cup winning heroes, has died at the age of 79. He was diagnosed with dementia although he was well enough to make what would be his final visit to The Hawthorns to join in celebrations on “Astle Day” in 2015. He passed away peacefully on Friday, 14th of August 2020 at the care home in Mechelen with his family at his bedside following a six-year struggle with dementia.
John was a redoubtable defender who was particularly known for his aerial ability. He enjoyed a five-year career at the Baggies during one of the Club’s most celebrated eras. John was a prominent figure in Albion’s 1968 FA Cup campaign. The climax of his Albion career came when the Cup-fighting exploits of the age took the team to Wembley for another League Cup final in 1970, where we were narrowly beaten by Manchester City.
