Worrying that a football clubs reaction to losing to us is to sack the manager...
'What? You lost to f**king CARDIFF!? Out!'

Comments from BBC's Pat Murphy about Clarke's tenure...
"You have got to look at this in the context of this calendar year. They have played 34 Premier League games and scored 31 points. Since they were third in the heady days of 2012, they have played 41 Premier League games and they have only won nine of them. Their chairman Jeremy Peace is ruthless. He is unsentimental.
"The 20% win percentage in 2013 is a major blow to the club's prospects. They put a lot of money into the first-team squad. They smashed West Brom's transfer record twice in the space of a couple of hours before the window shut.
"Having followed West Brom for over 40 years, I believe this is the best squad since 1981-82 and I think they are underachieving.
"Roy Hodgson left behind a professional outfit. Under Steve Clarke, when West Brom were at their best, they were more attractive than when they played under Hodgson, but they were less difficult to beat. Jeremy Peace likes his seat at football's top table and it would not sit well with him if they got relegated."
