West Bromwich Albion parted ways with manager Alan Pardew on Monday.
West Bromwich Albion are hunting for a third manager of the season after parting ways with Alan Pardew on Monday afternoon.
The Baggies lost 2-1 at home to Burnley on Saturday afternoon to make it 10 Premier League games without a victory, with relegation looking more and more likely.
West Brom sit bottom of the Premier League table, 10 points adrift of safety and set for the Championship having won just three times in 32 games this season.
Under Pardew, West Brom have won just three times in all competitions, and the 56-year-old leaves with a win rate of less than 15% after a nightmare spell at The Hawthorns.
Pardew was only appointed as Tony Pulis’ replacement back in November, but West Brom are now hunting for his replacement already – and bookmakers have been pricing up odds, as compiled by Oddschecker.
Mick McCarthy’s odds have been drifting throughout the day, to the point where Leicester City assistant boss Michael Appleton is now emerging as the favourite, with odds as short as 7/4 with some bookmakers.
The former West Brom midfielder and coach may be a popular target, far more than ex-Wolves boss McCarthy who may not have huge fan support given his ties with the Baggies’ biggest rivals.
Elsewhere, the surprise name in the running tonight is Luiz Felipe Scolari, as the Brazilian World Cup winner is now just 8/1 for the West Brom job, with the likes of Derek McInnes, Graham Potter, Chris Wilder, Nigel Pearson and Dean Smith still major names in the running, as they have been all week.
