Out of the list of contenders it would be Wagner for me. I'd love Gary Monk but that's not realistic.

if we are going to beat the Villa on Friday Gayle has to replace Robson Kanu tonight and score or out of misplaced  loyalty Kanu will continue to play and we won't beat Villa. Not wishing anyone ill but maybe his knee will seize up during there half time break  after clattering the post?

Johnstone

Nyom                 Dawson                            Hegazi                 Townsend

                                    Barry                         Field

Burke                                                                                    Chadli

                               Morrison

                                            Robson - Kanu

That would be my team on Tuesday if Chadli is fit. We desperately need some loan players in my opinion. Definitely a young box to box mid fielder and a right back. Watched highlights of the stoke game and they looked terribly slow  in mid field with too many old legs like us.

So are guys like Chadli, J Rod and Rondon available for selection on Saturday?

If so does Big Dave pick them?
I think the team selection will reflect the probability of any of these three leaving. If he knows the likelihood either way we will see it in the lineup. I just hope he has a strong sense of what is on the cards as going to the wire of the transfer window is the worst situation for us. I would like to see Jay Rod, Dawson, Rondon then Chadli retained in that order, with at least 2 of the 4 being kept crucial to us having a chance of promotion.

Have to say I would be a little disappointed at that.
Me too but when you look at the squad and the probable outs of some of our remaining best players 11th seems about right,

11th ? Sounds about right to me at the moment.

Lose today and I honestly think we are relegated. I know its early but all the other clubs are at least winning some games. Its not just the loss of the points today but the confidence further dented and the declining attractiveness to any possible signings in January.

It's a good appointment. Boro are floundering and Pulis will give them a much needed sense of direction.
Would Albion fans prefer him to bring Midlesbro up at the expense of the Villa and if we by some miracle stay up play against his team next season?

I am now. If we don't get a quality striker in January we are going to be relegated in my opinion.

if we can't keep him just make sure he is replaced with a younger up and coming player such as Ben Gibson. Our priority is a striker whether he leaves or not. Its up to the owner and how much he want his investment to be safeguarded by remaining in the Premier League.

Thought the pre match press conference on the West Brom site was very good from Pardew. So much better than Pulis in his outlook and positivity. I hope all those who wanted an up and coming lower league manager will get behind Pardew who will play positive attacking football. It is now fans negativity and not the managements that could hold us back.

As with previous appointments the favourite never seems to land the job. Watch this space for a sudden change in direction. Albion are never predictable
So Ryan Giggs or Neil Lennon then?

Sums up wonderfully why I hope it's not Pardew rocking up here
So other than mother teresa who would you like to see keep the Albion up playing more attacking football?

Although Pardew's win percentage is generally reasonable in the top flight, what worries me about him is reading things like:

West Ham: "Pardew was criticised after seeing West Ham through their worst run of defeats in over 70 years"
Charlton: "Hundreds of supporters remained for more than an hour to condemn their manager, chanting 'we want Pardew out'"
Sothampton: "Pardew was dismissed by the club amidst reports of low staff morale"
Newcastle: "This was arguably the worst personal abuse a Newcastle manager has had to endure at any game...some fans created a website Sackpardew.com....printing of 30,000 A4 sheets calling for his dismissal"
Palace: "Pardew was sacked as manager on 22 December 2016; Palace had won only 6 matches of 36 played in 2016"

Looking at the above, you have to wonder what he's learned during his career, as it seems to be a case of rinse and repeat in almost every job he's had. Pulis was hopelessly entrenched in his ways and I'm concerned that we'll just switch to someone else who's equally inflexible.

Worst of all was the headbutting incident with Hull's David Meyler. In case anyone doesn't recall it, here it is:

Link: Pardew headbutt

One thing you don't seem to get with Pardew is stability in any sense of the word....
Most managers are disliked prior to being sacked. It usually follows a run of poor results, just like Pulis. Even long term managers can hear the 'out' chants at some point.Clubs like ours either lose their managers through poor results or by being poached by the big boys if they are doing well, that life.

I’m behind the idea of Pardew after doing some research. He’s definitely a dick but him win % is good, 12% better than Pulis’ and plays more eye-pleasing football. He will embarrass us at times.

Jacko2000 - you said you ALSO heard he’s joining before the weekend, what was this in addition to as I think I’ve missed something.

Negative of this, come 2020 we’ll probably be looking for a new manager.
Better that he embarases us than the football we play.
