FanView: Why Nigel Pearson Would Be a Great Appointment for Championship Bound West Bromwich Albion

West Bromwich Albion parted company with manager Alan Pardew earlier this month, in what was probably the least surprising managerial departure of the season.

The 56-year-old won just 3 of his 21 matches in charge of the Baggies after taking over from Tony Pulis in November. He got his marching orders after a 2-1 loss to Burnley on March 31st.

With the club destined for the Championship next season, the Hawthorns hierarchy are now on the look out for someone to take over the reigns at the start of next season, with the hope that they can help the Baggies bounce back to the Premier League again.
