ISMAEL IS A GONER AT ALBION

BY

WEST BROM are set to sack underpressure boss Valerien Ismael.

The Frenchman is not expected to be in charge when the Baggies play at Sheffield United a week tonight.

Fans have turned on the former Barnsley boss after a dreadful run of one win in seven Championship games.

at the Hawthorns in June to take over from Slaven Bilic.

But his team are eight points off second spot and in grave danger of slipping out of the top six.

The Baggies’ board are set to go for a change at the top in the hope of sparking a late rally.

Ismael is understood to have been away in Germany visiting family, taking a flight immediately after the 2-0 weekend defeat at Millwall.
