    West Brom Sack Steve Clarke

    What the fk is this? Totally undeserved! Was doing a great job ok not the best of form recently but didn't deserve the sack!

    Doing a great job? Since 24th Nov last year, they have only taken 38 points in 41 matches. On average, that's less than a point per game. If they manage to draw all 41 matches, they will have taken more points.

    The board already given him a year to turn the corner, that's more than enough time if he has the ability to do it.

    He looked like a good appointment considering West Brom were relegation threatened team, he got them to 8th last season 15 points out of 16 games is not the best considering they have the highest wage bill in the clubs history but he should of got a bit more time.

    Martin Jol would be an excellent appointment theres still high respect for him over there from his playing days, sounds like a nice bet too, Robeto Di Matteo or Jol for me.

    He's a very good manager if you know anything about football, that being said he should of done a better job at Fulham with the players at his disposal.

    Jol played for West Brom for a couple years so makes sense that they'd go for him

    Steve Clarke has spoken of his disappointment at being axed as West Brom manager, insisting he had "unfinished business" at the club.
    Clarke was sacked on Saturday evening after a fourth successive defeat left the side just two points above the drop zone.
    He had guided Albion to eighth in the Premier League last season - their highest top-flight finish for 30 years - and suggested expectations this term had been too high.
    In a statement released through the League Managers' Association, Clarke said: "I believe I have unfinished business at West Bromwich Albion Football Club so it is with deep regret that I was relieved of duties as head coach last night.
    "I could not have been better prepared for my first job in management after over 14 years' coaching experience learning from some of the great managers in the modern era.
    "It was certainly a challenge to succeed Roy Hodgson, having been appointed England manager, after he successfully guided the club to a 10th-place finish in 2011/12, after only securing their Barclays Premier League status the year before.
    "It goes without saying that I was extremely proud to have built on that achievement by securing the club's highest ever finish in the Barclays Premier League and for over 30 years in the top flight by finishing 8th in 2012/13.
    "Going into this season expectations were high, perhaps unrealistically so, but with it still being only our fourth consecutive season in the top flight, our primary objective had to be to establishing our status in the Barclays Premier League.

    GOD BLESS you Steve, didn't deserve it.
