    WEST Bromwich Albion are delighted to announce they have appointed Roy Hodgson as the Club's new Head Coach.

    The 63-year-old former Inter Milan, Switzerland, Fulham and Liverpool boss has this morning committed himself to the Club until June 2012.

    Hodgson was voted Manager of the Year by the League Managers' Association last season after guiding Fulham to the Europa League final.

    Michael Appleton, who was appointed Caretaker Head Coach on Sunday after Roberto Di Matteo was relieved of his duties, will remain in charge for the West Ham game (ko 3pm).
    The Club are now channelling all of their efforts into supporting Appleton, his assistants Keith Downing and Dean Kiely and the players as they prepare for tomorrow's vital game.

    If they go down it'll be all Di Matteo's fault, he's left behind a poor squad. ;)

    Saw the interview with him on Sky this morning - he looked about ten years younger than when he was managing us.

    I'd put money on him to finish outside the bottom three with WBA - probably fourth or fifth from bottom.

    With us it was a case of decent fella, but completely out of his depth....

    Cant imagine this is a good move for west Brom they like to play in an attacking way that roy certainly doesnt. What are the odds on them going down i reckon it would be worth a few bob

    Best of luck to him.

    I hope he keeps them up. When you look at what he did at Fulham then WBA have every chance of staying up.

    Honestly can't see West Brom stay up with Roy in charge. Their supporters have become used to playing football the way it should be played now that will all change. Roy's away record is a concern for them now IMO.

    Playing football the way it should be played isnt really working for them is it. What he did with Fulham when he first arrived was a Houdini job.
    With his away record they might struggle to to stay up as you say.

    Wouldnt be at all surprised if he did it though.
