Chairman Jeremy Peace said in a statement released on the club's official website: "This has been a tough decision but we, as a Board, believe it is the right one to give the Club the best possible chance of remaining in the Premier League. Our poor sequence of results stretches back more than three months and there has been little sign of it coming to an end.



"If this run continues much longer, achieving our goal of retaining our Premier League status will become increasingly difficult. That is why we felt compelled to act now. This Club's track record proves we do not take such decisions lightly, with Roberto being only our fourth Manager or Head Coach in almost 11 years

I'm with CJTill on this....haven't got a clue.



Maybe we were foolish enough to think it was Cyprus related?

West Brom manager Roberto Di Matteo has been relieved of his duties and put on gardening leave with immediate effect.

The Baggies lost 3-0 at Manchester City on Saturday and the club gave the side's run of 13 defeats in 18 games as the reason for their decision.

Thanks wanderer....some folk seem to think that RDM is a universally recognised abbreviation for Roberto Di Matteo !
