Caretaker Gary Megson aims to lift West Brom's mood following Tony Pulis exit

Caretaker West Brom boss Gary Megson wants "bouncy people" around the training ground as the team look to move on from the sacking of Tony Pulis.

Megson, who managed the Baggies between 2000 and 2004, has been put in charge of first-team affairs on an interim basis and is preparing the squad for Saturday's trip to face Tottenham at Wembley.

However, the new backroom set-up has left no hands on role for assistant head coach Ben Garner, who had also worked with Pulis at Crystal Palace.

Megson, though, insisted there was "never a cross word" between the pair as everyone looked to move forwards.
