Seems Wagner can't take another job until the summer so guess that rules him out unless they keep the caretaker guy in charge for rest of the season given he's won his first two.

I hope that is the case as he won't win the play offs. I hope they don't get jokanovic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Above the championship I don't really rate him. He blew £100m on a Fulham squad that look set to be relegated. I really do not understand all the hype that surrounds him.

Then they made a absolutely stupid decision to hire raneri who doesn't do well at struggling sides. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The games are much more entertaining in championship as a neutral fan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jokanovic didn't ever control transfers at Fulham, which he why he almost quit several times. They have a bunch of 'moneyball' experts who sign players based on stats. I don't think Jokanovic was even that keen on signing Mitrovic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For next two months that's all WBA care about otherwise they'd have given Darren Moore the season.

imavillan Posted April 1, 2019 Share Posted April 1, 2019 (edited) This is quite funny. A case of careful what you wish for. https://www.birminghammail.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/west-brom-next-manager-odds-16060134 Sam Allardyce’s odds to become the next West Bromwich Albion have been slashed. Paddy Power say several ‘chunky wagers’ have been placed on the Dudley-born former England boss to take over following Darren Moore’s sacking last month. At the start of Monday Allardyce, 64, was 50/1 to be named Albion boss but Paddy Power have now made him 8/15 favourite https://www.paddypower.com/football?tab=specials Sam Allardyce 8/15 James Shan 9/4 Alex Neil 5/1 Slavisa Jokanovic 12/1 Michael Appleton 20/1 David Wagner 22/1 Edited April 1, 2019 by imavillan added Paddy Power link and odds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
