My brain is not willing to adhere to the fact of life that is West Bromwich Albion. I'm pretty sure I first heard of Alan Irvine when he was sacked the other day and Pulis took over. Just as I'm writing this I'm googling his name just to be absolutely sure it's Alan Irvine. I also did a quiz on Sporcle the other day to try and name all the teams that have played in the Premiership. I was able to name all of them bar West Bromwich fucking Albion. What an absolute black hole of irrelevance WBA is.

Steve McClaren was a close friend to Sir Bobby no?

Wow just saw the score. http://media.giphy.com/media/aZ3LDBs1ExsE8/giphy.gif

His performance today... http://replygif.net/i/132.gif

The approach for second half and the substitutions were just laughable. Riviere was doing an ok job and Armstrong is nowhere near ready to lead the line upfront just yet. Don't understand why Carver didn't just slot Haidara into left back when Taylor died as Dummett is a lot better in the center of defense. Tiote was a disaster and I barely noticed Colback. One of Coloccini's worst games for quite some time now.

worst goalkeeper in the world

Why just why those goalkeeper free kicks?

Are we sure Riviere knows the objective of playing the sport of football?

hahahaha for fucks sake what a time to be alive

If he finally leaves tomorrow... what an ending to an awful year.

I'm sure he won't be offered the job, as that'd be absolutely ludicrous. But f***ing hell, man. Just absolutely no! Even the suggestion has me absolutely f***ing petrified. Reminds me of the rumors of Xavi being offered the Barça gig when Vilanova was forced to retire due to his health. Actually, It would be cool in a retro way to see a player/manager in a respectable team again, if it's just temporary. Just dawned on me that Chelsea had three consecutive player/managers in Hoddle, Gullit and Vialli in the 90's

Come home son.

There are no talented managers from Newcastle (currently). Not even from England at all for that matter. When was the last time an English manager would have been considered world class? Sir Bobby? Allardyce and Pardew are probably the English managers with the best reputations right now. English football has seriously gone to shits hasn't it?

I'd definitely take him but he is probably earning loads in Russia Then again AVB is probably being paid in euros or dollars and given the present economic situation in Russia they might be tempted to get rid. AVB has however probably had enough of England.

You da real MVP's. Can't thank this lot enough for their efforts!

Why Ketsbaia? He's done f*** all apart from getting sacked by Georgia He did an amazing job in Cyprus and his record with Georgia is quite decent. He also had a stint with Olympiakos but was fired after six games. He actually didn't lose a single one of them nor did the team concede a single goal. I know he isn't the most glamorous choice but he's realistic and in my opinion worth the gamble.

Can we just have this minger as a manager please. Fucking brilliant.

Please just not someone from the english merry-go-round of managers. Ketsbaia and Tuchel are out of a job at the moment and I'd be ecstatic with them. However Laudrup's and de Boer's contracts are up in the summer and if that means Beardsley or Sherwood in the meantime I'll also be happy. I'm actually very worried but so relieved at the same time.

Tuchel is out of a job. Please bring him in.

THERE IS ACTUALLY NO 'C' IN HIS NAME.
