I've little sympathy for Paul Jewell after he's allowed himself to be compromised in several revealing photos and videos (ask Derby fans) and I suspect JP has acted. It'll be interesting to see what TP's reaction is - Jewell was his appointment and I doubt he'll be bothered by Jewell's past - he'll just see him as a good coach with something to offer Albion.

A bit more info, from the BBC site:
BBC Radio 5 live's Midlands football reporter Pat Murphy says Jewell's departure is about money.
"This appears to be one occasion when Jeremy Peace can't be blamed for a dispute over money at West Brom," says Murphy.
"The chairman is a notoriously keen reader of a balance sheet but he left Pulis to sort out the hiring of his backroom staff within an agreed budget.
"Pulis was very keen to enlist Gerry Francis after seven years together at Stoke and Crystal Palace. But to fund that, Pulis, his long-term assistant David Kemp and Jewell had to take a pay cut.
"It seems Jewell, already wondering about the nature of his exact role at the club, wouldn't agree to that, although Pulis and Kemp did. Jewell says the matter is now in the hands of his lawyers."

Does this mean Pulis can now give himself a pay rise for being a man lighter?
