West Brom sack Eric Ramsay after winless tenure leaves club on brink of relegation

Ramsay failed to win any of the nine matches he oversaw for the Baggies - (Action Images)

West Bromwich Albion have dismissed head coach Eric Ramsay following a 1-1 draw against Charlton Athletic, a result that leaves the club precariously positioned just one point above the Sky Bet Championship relegation zone. The decision brings an end to Ramsay’s brief 44-day tenure, during which he failed to secure a single league victory.

Ramsay oversaw eight league matches, accumulating a mere four points from a possible 24. Albion now sit fourth from bottom with 12 games remaining. First-team coach James Morrison will step in as interim manager for the second time this season, with his first challenge being Saturday’s crucial fixture against relegation rivals Oxford United.
