Lincoln City fans are reacting to reports Danny Cowley has held talks about West Bromwich Albion’s managerial vacancy.

According to ITV Sport, a further round of discussions is due to take place between the two parties this week, with Cowley alongside Chris Hughton and two others on West Brom’s shortlist.

The 40-year-old has led Lincoln to two promotions in three seasons and it is claimed that this is not the first time he has had interest from higher division clubs, while Middlesbrough are also said to be keen.

But what do those of an Imps persuasion make of the latest developments?

Here’s what they’re saying on Twitter.

@Nathhjones:

For the first time I’m really really nervous about cowley(s) going…. and also … who the **** replaces him

According to ITV Sport, West Brom would have to pay £500,000 in compensation for Cowley, whose brother, Nicky, is his assistant manager at Lincoln.

The pair enjoyed success at non-league sides Concord Rangers and Braintree Town before moving to Sincil Bank.

Darren Moore the manager

West Brom sacked Darren Moore in March, placing James Shan in interim charge for the rest of the season, which ended in play-off heartbreak.
