Michael O’Neill not a contender for West Brom job as Baggies seek top-flight experience

Despite being the bookies’ early frontrunner, the Northern Ireland manager is not a contender for the job.

West Brom want a manager with Premier League experience to replace the sacked Tony Pulis.

The Baggies axed Pulis on Monday after just two wins in his last 21 league games following Saturday's 4-0 defeat to Chelsea.
