Has to be the worst appointment of all time, surely? Came on line to say this. One of the worst in the Premier League for sure? They need someone ready for the Championship though. Not a fancy manager, someone who understands what it takes to get out of that league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inverted Posted April 2, 2018 Share Posted April 2, 2018 Rarely seen an emergency appointment go so badly. I don't think many thought he was going to drastically improve their chances of staying up, but I also don't think it was expected that it would be so bad.

Subscriber RandoEFC+ Posted April 2, 2018 Subscriber Share Posted April 2, 2018 Don't really have any sympathy for either party here. They can have Allardyce if they want though doubt he'll come back into football again after leaving us especially to manage in the Championship. This decision didn't really matter either way. They're down and if they didn't want Pardew to manage them in the Championship they could have just as easily left it until the end of the season without it making a difference. Have to say I've no idea whether Baggies fans have issues with Pardew or more with the club or the players but sacking him now gives the fans one less thing to give the club shit about for the next few weeks.

Dave Posted April 2, 2018 Author Share Posted April 2, 2018 I don't think at his age Sam Allardyce will want to take on a Championship club, and neither should he have to. He's an 8th to 10th Manager, and with a whole season under his belt could have taken a side as good as Everton's to seventh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted April 3, 2018 Share Posted April 3, 2018 Pardrew does have a good record in his first season so I can understand the appointment.

There has to be limits on the dots being connected. 100 different managers could have taken that job on after Pulis and the outcome would be different every time. Fans can't be held responsible just for saying that the team can be better than what Pulis is serving. I don't consider Man Utd fans responsible for getting their team up the league table to 2nd by wanting van Gaal out and the board landing Mourinho. They could have appointed Gordan Strachan instead and ended up 10th, it wouldn't mean that they were wrong about being capable of doing better than what they were under van Gaal. It would just mean someone on the board is a moron. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Subscriber Dan+ Posted April 3, 2018 Subscriber Share Posted April 3, 2018 Look at West Brom's form under Pulis. They were in relegation form under him. It's just quite extraordinary that they somehow got even worse under Pardew. Appointing Pardew was the error, not sacking Pulis. Based on last weeks comments from their chief executive I don't think they look too well set for a return next year either. They need a complete rebuild. They've got a ridiculously old squad, their wage bill is massive, there's no discipline at the club and by the sounds of it, no money either, which is utterly beyond belief when you look at what they've signed and what they get just for being in the league. Major questions need asking of their new owners for me. This really has been the most unbelievably bad season for West Brom ever. Combine this shambles with the fact Wolves and potentially Villa are going up too. I honestly think if you'd asked a West Brom fan in the summer what their nightmare season was it would still have been better than this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danny Posted April 4, 2018 Share Posted April 4, 2018 Dean Smith linked with the role, Brummy who's already done good work with Walsall and now is so not surprised to see the link. Seeing as he's already publicly denied speculation leading him to his boyhood club Villa to stay with us, I can't imagine he'll leave. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think sometimes fans get what they deserve I agree that Arsenal fans deserve back to back relegation No one knows a club better than their own fans. There's something pretentious about neutrals whom having watched next to none of a teams games pass judgement as to whether a manager is acceptably criticised by the fans or not simply by having a look at the league table on the bbc website. It keeps places like this going though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted April 4, 2018 Author Share Posted April 4, 2018 As @Dan eluded too, sacking Tony Pulis after none months of dross and the money to turn it around wasn't the wrong thing do. The replacement was the wrong thing. I get how Pardew could talk his way in to taking over a Tony Pulis team, but based on us it was never going to work It's a bit like Ipswich Town now in the sense there's no wrong answer over if Mick should stay or go.
