OFFICIAL: West Brom have confirmed they have parted company with the Club’s Head Coach Darren Moore.
Darren Moore who was a former player at the club has been saved hours after the 1-1 against Championship bottom team, Ipswich Town.
The club currently sit 4th in the Championship table and the previous result has dented the hope of promoting to the Premier league division.
The Baggies have only managed a run of just four wins in their last 12 games, which has been perceived to be awful.
In April 2018: Darren Moore becomes the first West Brom manager since 2015 to be named Premier League Manager of the Month.
Chief executive Mark Jenkins told the club's official website: "This has been an enormously difficult decision for a club which will always hold Darren in such high regard.
"He took over at a very difficult time last season and reunited the club, a contribution that will never be forgotten.
"We have made it clear from the outset that everything this season was geared to making as swift a return to the Premier League as possible.
"Unfortunately Darren has not been able to engineer the consistency of form and results to convince the board that this objective would be met."
Press Association Sport understands Moore was sacked in the boardroom by Jenkins and technical director Luke Dowling over an hour after the game.
Moore's assistants Graeme Jones and Wayne Jacobs have also left the club while first team coach James Shan has been put in temporary charge of team affairs.
The club have indicated that they intend to identify a replacement for Moore as soon as possible, with former Fulham boss Slavisa Jokanovic linked with the post.
Moore, who made over 100 playing appearances for the club between 2001 and 2006, had given no indication of his impending departure at his post-match press conference.
Moore said: "Nobody is going to give West Bromwich Albion the right to win. We have to go and earn it and find it. So we will continue trying to work towards that."
Big names including Gary Lineker and Ian Wright were among those to express surprise at the decision. On 9 March 2019 Darren Moore sacked by West Brom
