West Bromwich Albion have parted company with manager Alan Pardew after eight successive league defeats.<\/p>\n
The 56-year-old was\u00a0appointed on 29 November\u00a0after the Baggies sacked Tony Pulis following a run of 10 Premier League games without a victory.<\/p>\n
A\u00a02-1 home defeat by Burnley\u00a0on Saturday left bottom club Albion 10 points from safety with six games left.<\/p>\n
Coach Darren Moore has taken over the first-team and is likely to stay in charge for the rest of the season.<\/p>\n
Pardew has become the 10th permanent manager in the Premier League to leave his post this season, which is a joint record along with the 2013-14 campaign.<\/p>\n
The Baggies’ statement read: “West Bromwich Albion and Alan Pardew have agreed to mutually part company following discussions between both parties.<\/p>\n
“Assistant head coach John Carver will also be leaving.<\/p>\n
“The club would like to thank Alan and John for their efforts and wish them well in their future endeavours.”<\/p>\n
Pardew, a former team-mate of West Brom technical director Nick Hammond, was the club’s sixth manager since 2011.<\/p>\n
West Brom won just once in 18 league games under him, taking only eight points from a possible 54.<\/p>\n
They are in their eighth successive Premier League season but have taken only 20 points from their 32 matches this campaign.<\/p>\n
Pardew’s previous job in the Premier League was with Crystal Palace, who sacked him in December 2016 with the club 17th in the table.<\/p>\n
