Jones in frame as Mel faces West Brom sack

West Bromwich Albion boss Pepe Mel is fighting to keep hold of his job after defeat to Manchester United.

The Sunday Mirror says the Spaniard has been in charge at The Hawthorns for less than two months, but has failed to win any of his seven matches.

And chairman Jeremy Peace is now considering bringing in an experienced British manager for the final 10 games of the season.

Former Cardiff boss Dave Jones, who is close to Peace, is believed to be the leading contender - with current Arsenal reserve team boss Terry Burton likely to assist Jones if he gets the post.
