Big Sam

Good move for West Brom. You've just given yourselves a fighting chance by taking on the Red Adair of football management. It may not be pretty but it will be effective. Anyone of the team who is not giving 100% will get a simple choice to make. Sam will be ruthless (shape up or ship out, my way or the highway etc ).
I expect there will be some very good and surprising signings after Christmas whether the team respond or not.
Your Messiah has arrived a little early, and no - he's not just a naughty boy!
Best wishes to Sam and the team.

I'm a little surprised there's so much opposition to sacking Bilic. He always comes across to me as a rather average manager and not someone who's going to progress a team much. Although I can't imagine Big Sam would be a popular choice given West Brom have spent the last few seasons trying to get away from Pulis-brand football. And particularly not when people like Eddie Howe are available.

In theory i'd be happy with Eddie Howe but my current priority is for the owner to move on. What manager comes in is irrelevant while he's still at the club.

Bilic did a good job without having significant backing. He got us promoted in his first season and we've been unlucky not to get more points than we have in the Prem. VAR has robbed us of at least 4 points this season and we've been very competitive against City, United Chelsea and Spurs.

So is a draw away at City a fair start?

It's going exactly as expected. Fingers crossed it continues and we can retire Allardyce!

If you look back at my comments when Pulis was in charge i've been totally consistent. I said the same thing when he was in charge even when we were mid table. But don't let the truth get in the way of your biased fantasy!
