West Brom Make 54-Year-Old Manager First-Choice to Replace Eric Ramsay

"There aren't many better firefighter managers in English football than Dyche, who is newly available after being sacked by Nottingham Forest earlier this month, having been in charge at the City Ground for just 114 days himself. According to Sports Boom, West Brom made the 54-year-old their top target prior to the dismissal of Ramsay on Tuesday, and now they could make their move for him."

"Not only has Dyche proved he can work in difficult circumstances at the likes of Burnley and Everton, but he is proven at keeping clubs afloat, as he did with both the aforementioned teams. West Brom need a manager now who will make them solid and hard to score against, so they can regularly pick up points and wins between now and the end of the campaign."

"West Brom are in a dire situation and lie just one point above the Championship relegation zone after a run of 10 games without victory, and it's only Leicester City's points deduction that has kept them out of the bottom three."

West Bromwich Albion sacked Eric Ramsay following a 1-1 draw with Charlton Athletic, making him the club's second managerial casualty this season. Ramsay managed only nine games across 44 days without securing a victory. West Brom currently sits one point above the Championship relegation zone after ten consecutive matches without a win, relying on Leicester City's points deduction to avoid the bottom three. The club has identified Sean Dyche as their primary managerial target. Dyche, recently dismissed by Nottingham Forest after 114 days, is recognized as an experienced crisis manager with proven success at Burnley and Everton. However, uncertainty surrounds his potential move to the Hawthorns, as Burnley also pursues him amid pressure on current manager Scott Parker.
