You'd have thought so although not much of West Broms business this season has made much senseForeverAddickted said:
Surely if you've got Man City coming up, get the new Manager in beforehand so he almost has a free hit!!MattF said:Presumably they assumed they'd be twatted by Man City yesterday, laughable decision really1 -
I completely agree with your big Sam thoughts Andy.AndyG said:You have to feel for Slaven it would take a miracle worker to get them to stay in the Premiership, a bridge to far for even big Sam I feel
The WBA squad will need some serious investment in January, which I think he will demand. (& will probably get)
This would be bizarre, as they should've given Bilic more cash in the summer.
Instead, he brought in loans he had last year, added another Championship loanee & a championship striker. (A quite large fee admittedly, but not a proven PL striker), & not much else.
A point away at City I'd consider an excellent result.
Strange timing after a gritty ream performance.
Maybe something more behind the scenes?
Back to Allardyce. If he does get the job, he may just be canny enough to drag them out of the mire. They are hardly cut adrift at this point.
I think it will be the toughest ask out of all the clubs he's either got promoted, had success with (thinking Bolton for their top ten finishes & euro fitba), & most important to look at, his relegation escapes.0 -

Allardyce must love it. Gets sacked from wherever then just waits for a premier league chairman to get a bit twitchy around christmas time and he's back in business.
He'll have a nice pint of wine to celebrate his (probable) new job tonight.5 -
Would love to someone from the media ask the WBA Chairman the straight question as to whether they were talking to Sam before the WBA game and to see him publicly deny it!

Utterly stupid appointment imo. If you are going to get rid of Billic at least go for an up & coming manger......not fecking Big Sam.ForeverAddickted said:Big Sam been confirmed as new West Brom manager1 -

They are not looking at the long-term future, Golfie - just the next 25 games.

I reckon Big Sam will possibly keep WBA up & they were probably going down with Bilic.
18 month contract.1 -
Here's how it goes:
West Brom stay up this seasonFinish top 10 next yearFans get restless about the style of footballWest Brom sack AllardyceWest Brom get relegated
Imo Big Sam is one of the great Premier League managers. He's a success almost everywhere he goes5 -
Gets Grant scoring goals and WBA sell for £ms.
Meanwhile Pullis, that other fire fighter is struggling, so far, at Sheffield Wednesday, which is nice.2 -
West Ham have managed to go one better in this pattern of alternating experienced "functional" British managers (to keep you up) and "progressive" foreign coaches (to play better football) - Big Sam, Bilic, Moyes, Pellegrini, Moyes - by actually returning to the same one they'd previously rejected in David Moyes!cafcnick1992 said:Here's how it goes:

Palace followed Big Sam with de Boer (wanting a passing style etc) but sadly quickly reverted to type with the more functional Hodgson. Hopefully they'll get bored with Hodgson and bring in an unsuitable foreign coach to bring them to the next level (down)
Amusing that Bilic replaced Big Sam as West Ham, whereas Big Sam replaced Bilic at West Ham1 -
If it was us in their position would you want a tried and trusted manager who would give us a decent shout of staying up or gamble on an up and coming manager with no experience of the premier league?golfaddick said:

Which is exactly what most newly promoted clubs need. Stay up the first season and try to grow from there.golfaddick said:

Slavan Neverheardofhimovic is lined up to take over5 -
Perhaps they'll take Bowyer off our hands, seeing as he is rated sooooo highly.0

There are some decent candidates out there like Eddie Howe and Paul Cook, but Dinamo Tbilisi manager Xisco Munoz seems to be the favourite
