Jimmy shan it is then

[baggieal]

Really? He bought in Edwards from nowhere who scored the winner v Brentford. He made a half time change v Birmingham that you could argue won us the game. He switched formation so we had 2 up front v Preston.

I wasn't at Millwall, but the major incidents in the game were down to player error - we missed a penalty, scored an own goal and a bad keeping error lead to their first half. We also had individual errors lead to goals against us against Bristol City.

He's said the right things in the press since that game about having a 'lower league' mentality at the back and not taking so many chances. He seems to me a progressive, young manager who wants to improve.

There are no other candidates out there jumping out at us. Can not for the life of me understand any fans who knock Shan. He's given us 15 years of service and helped create a youth team to be proud of. You could say he's earned a chance. The decision has been made now, let's get fully behind them until the end of the season no?

I am not knocking Shan who has done well in the circumstances. I would get behind any manager otherwise it would be pointless going to the matches - and I do almost every game.

Yes Edwards did well against Brentford but then understandably struggled. Our best prospect in years Harper has been bombed out which is a shame. Perhaps Livermore should be bombed out as he contributes very little. Brunt at least gives 100% although past it - certainly should not play in CM.

Jenkins will do whatever he wants as West Brom fans unlike other fans are too accepting!!! Would Shan have stayed had we lost to Preston? No. So the cheap option has been dangled on a string game by game. If you have been impressed in the last six games then perhaps - we have been to different matches. Swansea could have had four - Blues were very unlucky and certainly was no penalty - Brentford was a poor game with one act of brilliance. We were shocking collectively at Millwall and was not down to one player. Bristol - we were shocking in the first half and Preston had their heads down from the start. It sums up the shambles at West Brom when Neil would rather stay at Preston!!!

So if we don’t get through the play offs - what should we all say - we tried!! No guarantees with an experienced manager but then again supporters would be more foregiving for having a go!

Shan would not have wanted the likes of Megson, Pearson or Shakespeare coming in but he can walk away - the supporters will not. I would have had one of these three managers at the helm with Shan assisting.

Tolerance ensures people like Jenkins do exactly what they want. The same tolerance ensures scum bags like Begum get what they want because of your comment - ‘ she’s British so we have to deal with it’. This same tolerance is why the UK is a magnet for all the dross coming through Europe to the UK. I have been saying for years that the ownership and board at West Brom stinks but hey - nobody does nothing but blame the manager!!!

For sure Shan will be the next culprit who is the innocent guy albeit an inexperienced one! If we don’t make the play offs - many will blame Shan. I won’t blame Shan but my anger will be directed at Jenkins but he will be on a beach. Will he care? No because of tolerance and because he can do what he wants and when he wants. Fat Mike thought he could do the same until he got screwed by the Debenhams Board!
