West Brom Part Company With Coach Alan Pardew

West Bromwich Albion have parted company with manager Alan Pardew after eight successive league defeats.

The 56-year-old was appointed on 29 November after the Baggies sacked Tony Pulis following a run of 10 Premier League games without a victory.

A 2-1 defeat at home to Burnley on Saturday left Albion 10 points from safety with six games left.

First-team coach Darren Moore will take charge of first-team affairs “until further notice”, the club said.

The club statement read: “West Bromwich Albion and Alan Pardew have agreed to mutually part company following discussions between both parties.

“Assistant head coach John Carver will also be leaving.

“The club would like to thank Alan and John for their efforts and wish them well in their future endeavours.”
