In 1980, Cunningham was long gone, having moved to Real Madrid the previous year. Johnston, meanwhile, was asked to rejoin Rangers and, after doing so, what followed next might have seen a dismantling of Albion's Holy Trinity for good.
Johnston, then aged 33, was asked to recommend a striker who might be suitable for the Glasgow giants.
He suggested Regis.
Thankfully, for all concerned - though obviously not Rangers - the move never happened. Regis was to remain in the Black Country for four more years.
In those less enlightened times, Regis’ race and religious beliefs - he was raised as a catholic - made it a non-starter in what was then a fairly intolerant and volatile landscape. Rangers weren't willing to embrace players who failed to fit their 'profile'.
