Robert Mugabe resigns.
Bookies make him favourite for the West Brom job.

Pulis and Mugabe gone in 2 days - brilliant! Kim Jong-Un tomorrow. You heard it here first.

I don't know about the rest of you but I quite like Alan Pardew. He might be a bit of a twat and has had issues in the past because of it but he is an experienced Premier League manager and he likes his team to play football on the floor. He had a 40% win rate during his time there which is higher than Roy Hodgson's during his time at Albion.
I agree Josh; if we're looking for someone with PL experience it narrows it down a lot, and in our present position I can't see the board taking a punt on someone a la Mel.
Of those left, Pardew (for me) is a good option - certainly streets ahead of Fat Ham.
Not heard much mention of Nigel Pearson.....colourful character certainly; got Leicester up & running for Ranieri??
RE: Tony Pulis' replacement - WBA-Josh - 21-11-2017
Nigel Pearson is in the Belgian second division with Oud-Heverlee Leuven who have the same owners as Leicester City. It's probably a good project for him in a pretty city.
I don't particularly like him and wouldn't want him back at Albion.

Careful Josh. He'll be calling you an ostrich if he reads your post!

Dave Kemp as his Vice-President and chief yes man. What could go wrong.

Óscar García seems like a pretty good option to me.
Feel the same as Josh about Pearson.
