Ryan Mason a brave appointment by West Brom, says Steve Hermon

3 weeks ago | bbc.co.uk | Steve Hermon

Albion have taken their time with the appointment of Ryan Mason but for good reason. It's been 43 days since Tony Mowbray was sacked on Easter Monday after a 3-1 defeat by struggling Derby ended their play-off hopes. Mowbray was appointed just over three weeks after Carlos Corberan left on Christmas Eve for Valencia and, in hindsight, it could be argued that it was rushed.

WBA: Opinion - A waiting game but a worthwhile one?

1 month ago | bbc.com | Steve Hermon

It's been a month since Albion sacked Tony Mowbray after a dismal defeat to Derby on Easter Monday put paid to their play-off hopes. The thinking behind the swift decision just hours after the game was to give the Baggies a head start in the recruitment process. The only problem is that since then, several clubs have also begun searching for new bosses, including Championship rivals Norwich, Hull and Watford; the latter of whom have already filled their vacancy.

West Bromwich Albion: 'Mowbray's arm around the shoulder proved wrong fit'

2 months ago | bbc.com | Steve Hermon

There's an air of sadness to Albion's decision to end Tony Mowbray's second spell in charge after less than 100 days. Particularly due to the huge respect he built in his memorable first reign, but the swift sacking barely hours after a 3-1 defeat by Derby County is probably best for all parties.
West Bromwich Albion's future could be brighter than some fear

Feb 28, 2025 | bbc.com | Steve Hermon

It is absolutely an eye-watering amount. However, there is more to that figure than meets said watery eye. Anything spent on infrastructure and areas of the club such as the Academy or Women's team doesn't have to be included, so the actual losses are significantly lower. In the accounting world, they would be considered 'add-backs'.

Many fans will see a £33.9m loss in a single financial year and be alarmed after all the talk about having to keep losses under £39m over a three-year period as part of the EFL's profit and sustainability rules.

Feb 11, 2025 | ca.sports.yahoo.com | Ged Scott |Steve Hermon

West Bromwich Albion boss Tony Mowbray has warned that Wednesday night's Hawthorns opponents Blackburn Rovers may well be "galvanised" after several days of speculation about his opposite number John Eustace's future. Albion take on Mowbray's former club - fifth against sixth - looking for a third straight home win since the veteran Baggies boss returned. Rovers could be managerless as Eustace appears on the verge of a move back to the Midlands.
West Bromwich Albion: Adam Armstrong proves icing on the cake

Feb 4, 2025 | bbc.com | Steve Hermon

Albion fans were made to wait but it was absolutely worth it because they have managed to acquire one of the Championship's most prolific marksmen with the extremely late capture of Southampton striker Adam Armstrong. The 27-year-old has scored 80 career goals in the second tier, including 24 last season for the Saints, who beat the Baggies in the play-offs on their way to securing promotion to the Premier League.
