You're getting sacked in the morning.

Bye bye Alan F****** Irvine.

Lets have some class. He's a hard working man who seems to have honestly given it his best. He's too timid and too negative, but there's no need for that type of stuff. It's a classless shame he's been subjected to that sort of thing.

Nice guy but out of his depth. Needs to go tonight.

Complete clear out including Burton tonight, JP gets to stay for obvious reasons. Big Dave has caretaker. We would all support this

Irvine is one of the big factors, but its not just him, Downing, Kiely, Peace and a number of players who are past their sell by date now.

Agreed, gave it a shot and wasn't up for it. Nice bloke just the wrong choice.

Do the honourable thing Alan and quit.

If he don't, I don't think Peace will sack him yet. $:-\$

Pinky & Perky can do one as well

Hope I get some good news that he has been sacked, because this has ruined my Christmas period.

Enough. Witless and clueless in the second half. We need to give the new manager a running start by appointing in time for Gateshead and Hull. They also need a couple of weeks to prepare for the transfer window as we need to move on some players and maybe sell Berahino. Big changes required and a fresh impetus.

I will be happy when we start with a midfield that doesn't feature four identical players - we need Mulumbu and Jacob back.

I hope Irvine gets his job back at Everton. He's seems a nice chap; but sadly massively out of his depth in the Premier League

Its takenus > 4 weeks to appoint our last 3head coaches, i see no reason to think this will be different.

The muppet JP should have been planning, he's has since July to plan the appointment, this surely wouldn't have come as a shock to him? 30k Albion fans knew he wouldn't see new year in..

anyone know why we are reluctant to bring martin jol as head coach

No we bloody wouldn't. Not a time for a novice, regardless of his club connections.

WBAinDEVON · « **Reply #6160 on:** December 28, 2014, 05:04:17 PM »

His supporters will no doubt say he's keeping us out the bottom three

I blame the system we use! He can't get a say in the players brought in, and with pinky&perky in his ear its hopeless! Sack them pair and make him MANAGER!

Presumably the reluctance is from Jol not wanting to work within our structure. Just like every other manager worth his salt.

I said caretaker, one or two games

although we were unlucky today, he played the wrong team again no yacob and mulumbu areas in which bojan likes too roam

It matters not who is "head coach/manager", we have a group of players who are performing to the level that can really be expected of them.

Agreed. It's a bit hypocritical of us to be berating Irvine for being out of his depth, yet support the appointment of the likes of Big Dave or McInnes.

Albionic · « **Reply #6167 on:** December 28, 2014, 05:06:54 PM »

well the 12month contract can be ripped up now.
So many errors today Alan, you cannot blame anyone but yourself for this.

16th in the table, we're not much better than that are we really. We played well today, just not having the luck.

martin jol has worked with a technical directer in the past

Gary Rowett in at the blues, totally turned it around. The right appointment will save us

If that is the case why doesn't Irvine make wholesale changes?

I've just sent several e-mails to the enquiries@ address.... I suggest everyone just bombard the bloody system and give JP some earache.

Unless you think everything is peachy of course.

Yes but he hasn't had to work with Downing and Kiely beneath him
