West Brom sack head coach

Abuja - West Bromwich Albion have sacked head
coach Alan Irvine, the club announced on their
website late on Monday.
The English Premier League club made the move
following a run of seven losses in their past nine
games, a series of results that has caused them to
slide to 16th place, just above the relegation zone.
"Securing a sixth season in the Premier League is
the over-riding target and sometimes unpleasant
decisions have to be taken to serve that imperative,"
Albion technical director Terry Burton says on the
club's website.
"Alan has impressed everyone with his manner,
dedication and diligence but he knows that results
have simply not been good enough."
Irvine was surprise choice when he was hired as
West Brom manager in June this year after the 56-
year-old Scot had spent the previous three seasons
as youth team coach at Everton.
Bookmakers have installed former Tottenham
Hotspur manager Tim Sherwood as favourite to
succeed Irvine with ex-Stoke and Crystal Palace boss
Tony Pulis close behind in the betting.
