Megson blocked from seeking new job

GARY MEGSON has revealed his frustration at not being allowed to look for a new job after being put on “gardening leave” by West Brom, who are still his employers.

Megson says his lawyers are negotiating with the club regarding his departure and that the Hawthorns outfit are still paying his wages.

The former Stoke and Stockport boss was relieved of his duties yesterday after writing a letter to the board of directors announcing his decision not to extend his contract beyond its expiry next summer.
