West Bromwich Albion boss Darren Moore wants to be 'inspiration to all'

Darren Moore hopes his appointment as West Brom head coach will be an inspiration to all young British managers and not just those from ethnic minority backgrounds.

The 44-year-old is only the second manager in the Premier League, alongside Chris Hughton at Brighton, to represent a Black, Asian and minority ethnic (BAME) group. There are currently just three in the top four divisions with Keith Curle making up the number - although he is set to leave Carlisle.

Moore has been given the Baggies job following an impressive spell as caretaker manager after Alan Pardew was sacked at the start of April.
