r4derby Posted June 14, 2014 Share Posted June 14, 2014 Interesting to hear that Pat Murphy (BBC Midlands correspondent) thinks that WBA, or more specifically Peace, will put spin on this announcement by saying that Irvine was always there first choice, despite Sherwood passing up the chance before they gave it to Irvine. Peace living up to his reputation of "my way or highway" again, but is it to there detriment? I don't know if Irvine is any good, apparently he is a good coach, and presumably a yes man...but if he says he doesn't need Thorne will it actually change anything?

Bris Vegas Posted June 14, 2014 Share Posted June 14, 2014 Alan Irvine is simply a yes man What on earth is going on at WBA - George Thorne must be itching for a move here, rather than play for hoofball Irvine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cannable Posted June 14, 2014 Share Posted June 14, 2014 Having a look at his win percentage at both of his previous clubs and they aren't actually bad at all. 40% win ratio at both. Also with him being a former youth director and coach I'd imagine he'd be big on youth. I have absolutely no idea what his playing philosophy is, I never really paid attention to Wednesday or Preston Does this mean that Peace didn't take too kindly to Sherwood's ultimatum?

cannable Posted June 14, 2014 Share Posted June 14, 2014 A brief glimpse at the WBA fans' reaction on Twitter suggests that Peace is very unpopular, being described as "only in it for the money" and "lacking ambition". It would explain why he tends to hold out for large transfer fees. JR @thejonreeve 8m Get Jeremy Peace out of our club. @WBAFCofficial. ZacWBA @ZacG_ 11m @WBAFCofficial Tell Jeremy Peace he can have my season ticket back first thing Monday morning. PEACE OUT. Tom Bayliss @tcbayliss 46s I'd love to see Alan Irvine prove me wrong .. but I have major doubts. Jeremy Peace has proven he isn't concerned about the club #noambition George Wakeman @_GeorgeWakeman 1m Got a good mind to ram my season ticket up Jeremy Peace's arse karl southall @karlsouthall 1m @WBAFCofficial Jeremy peace you are a joke tim sherwood would of been great for the club but yet again you are to tight #****** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GaryDCFC Posted June 14, 2014 Share Posted June 14, 2014 I have a feeling this is not going to be West Brom's year. Anyone else having this same view? I'm actually thinking of placing my very first bet and that is to suggest West Brom are going to be relegated this season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ambitious Posted June 14, 2014 Share Posted June 14, 2014 If I was George Thorne, I'd be kicking and screaming (more than he is) to get out. Absolutely horrendous appointment, there is no two ways about it. Sherwood was bad enough, but Irvine? Jesus. It'd be as bad as Leeds hiring Dolan and the t'other bloke.

McRamFan Posted June 14, 2014 Share Posted June 14, 2014 I love our owners, I think we are one of the most fortunate clubs in terms of how we are run, the sourcing of investment, development of youth etc, no wonder players are now noticing us and wanting to play in an environment that hands players the perfect conditions to play their football and not be destracted by off field stupidity.

Carl Sagan Posted June 14, 2014 Share Posted June 14, 2014 Out of the frying pan (Sherwood), into the fire (Irvine). The only problem for us is that surely all the half dozen midfielders ahead of Thorne in the WBA reckoning will surely also now hand in transfer requests. Maybe he'll be the first name on the team sheet there after all? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
