Least we can do is give the guy a chance. With one of the lowest budgets in the Championship he managed to get a Huddersfield side promoted with as many points as Albion got under Mowbray when we won the league in 2008.

Indeed. All he’s done is apply for a job, not his fault he’s actually been given it.
Looks like he’s in now, may as well get behind him.

Agreed. No disappointment from me. It's certainly the wildcard option but there's no reason it can't work out well. The only issue is that if the rumours are true that it's all gone tits up in the boardroom then it half ruins the decent foundation we have.
Otherwise, welcome to the Hawthorns, Mr Wagner.

His first two seasons at Huddersfield were Manager of the Year stuff; it is what happened after that worries me.

Two years ago we'd have been delighted to get him...he obviously has talent.
Could be worse...is not very inspiring but hey, this is the Albion.
How long will he get under this regime?

I wouldn't say I'm warm to the idea.
But I wish him well and am totally behind him, I don't have any issue with him, like if we'd appointed John Terry.

It’s always worth reminding yourself that the VAST majority of Albion fans are neither contributing to this dump nor whining on FB or Twitter. I have spoken to three separately since last night, that all fall into that category
They all think it is a decent appointment and I tend to agree. I would have preferred Wilder but I understand Lai’s reasoning for blocking that one.
I wish him well and will be supportive!
