West Bromwich Albion manager Alan Pardew is reportedly expecting to lose his job on the back of Saturday afternoon's 1-0 defeat at Watford.
The 56-year-old has made little impact since taking over at The Hawthorns at the end of November, winning just one of his 15 league games in charge.
West Brom's terrible run of form predates Pardew's arrival, having picked up maximum points on three occasions in 38 matches stretching back a year.
According to The Telegraph, Albion chiefs are about to start their latest search for a new boss as Pardew is unlikely to still be at the helm for the visit of Leicester City next weekend.
Watford skipper Troy Deeney scored the only goal of the game to inflict a sixth successive defeat on the Baggies in all competitions, leaving them eight points adrift of safety at the foot of the Premier League.
