New West Brom head coach Sam Allardyce says his friends are calling him 'Red Adair' after the famous firefighter as he embarks on another Premier League salvage mission.
The former England boss has developed a reputation for dragging teams out of relegation trouble in recent years.
He managed it at Sunderland and Crystal Palace after mid-season arrivals.
The 66-year-old also stabilised Everton as their 2017-18 season threatened to spiral out of control.
Now he has succeeded the sacked Slaven Bilic at West Brom, who are second-bottom and have won only one game all season - against bottom club Sheffield United.
