So not actually 'official' yet?

It's come from Percy. Can't get a more reliable source. It's done. Albion will get round to announcing it when they get their arses into gear.

Might take them three months though.

Locking this until we get official confirmation from a club channel (Twitter, website etc)

Very Happy and looking forward to hopefully some â€œrockâ€™nâ€™rollâ€ football but just donâ€™t understand why this wasnâ€™t done once Moore was ousted? Itâ€™s taken this long to get someone who was out of work which for me is just penny pinching. I suppose the whys and howâ€™s donâ€™t matter now. Welcome Slav, good luck I think you may need it

I just heard on radio WM that he as signed a 2 year deal and it will be announced in the next couple of hours.

Can all fans now get behind the club now PLEASE and stop moaning.

This isn't a cheap option and no we didn't get Appleton.

If you haven't got a season ticket, get one, lets get behind the club and make the Hawthorns a special place next season.

ATID.

Considering some of the dross we have been linked with, I'm quite happy.

I can still see him walking in November after an argument with Jenkins.

Chuffed!

Some character to the club, finally!

Can only paste what I said earlier...

Great news. Let the rebuild commence!

Welcome to the club Slav. I will go on record as saying, I am very happy with your appointment. First time I have said that since we appointed Roy.

Jack Thrust · « **Reply #13 on:** June 13, 2019, 01:18:55 PM »

Overall I'm pretty pleased with this, certainly puts paid to the Yes Man/Cheap option/steady eddy predictions imo.

I've got to give some credit to the board for the apparent ambition of this appointment, and if they now back him to build a squad I don't know how i'll cope with some positivity around the place.

gazberg · « **Reply #14 on:** June 13, 2019, 01:19:46 PM »

Proper happy with this appointment. Might get a season ticket now.

Interesting that he said the club has a short term and a long term strategy. I was convinced we had neither.

STILL negativity.

Come on man let's big ourselves up for once. Let's get everything buzzing. Remember that atmosphere vs Villa. We can do it, let's make sure we do.

PS! No offence intended.

GET IN!

Welcome Big Slav I am excited to see what this season will bring now. Lots of arrrrd work rebuilding the squad but bring it on!

Hopefully a new look team ready tot= take the league by storm come the first day.

silver surfer · « **Reply #17 on:** June 13, 2019, 01:22:36 PM »

Looking forward to the season now.
Lets get behind him.

BalisPen · « **Reply #18 on:** June 13, 2019, 01:23:45 PM »

All the best Slaven, hopefully you get the right backing and get us promoted.

I'm thrilled with this appointment! Welcome Slav! Let's do this!

miggybaggy · « **Reply #20 on:** June 13, 2019, 01:27:26 PM »

Great. Lets hope he can instil a lot more urgency about the place and kick a few butts. Been far too much 'old-pals' stuff going on recently.
Looking forward to not being bored senseless by backwards and sideways football!

sammyg · « **Reply #21 on:** June 13, 2019, 01:28:10 PM »

Chuffed with this. Letâ€™s hope it works out! Least it wonâ€™t be boring! Welcome Slav!

What the hell does it take for some people? Are you on medication?

agreed. do not need any negativity and the club need to re-group and create more atmospheres like against the villa and not like various home games last year when we went 1-0 down or took a short goal kick and full of groans and moans.

really excited about this appointment and glad we didnt rush in giving it some nobody or a someone promoted within the club. financially back Bilic and i believe we will see results.

FallOutBoy · « **Reply #24 on:** June 13, 2019, 01:31:58 PM »

Sorry everyone. I forgot that everything will be brilliant if we sing louder, clap harder, and believe in everything the club do, even the things that contradict the other things they were doing.

PS No offence intended
