They have responded via a hilarious tweet.
So, the inevitable finally happened this weekend and Alan Pardew was removed from his post at West Brom by ‘mutual consent’.
The Baggies are rooted to the bottom of the table on 20 points and look certain to be relegated after Pardew failed to rejuvenate the side when he took over in November.
West Bromwich Albion and Alan Pardew have agreed to mutually part company following discussions between both parties.#WBAhttps://t.co/5nB4TJWdes

In an official club statement, West Brom said: “The Club would like to thank Alan and John for their efforts and wish them well in their future endeavours.”
Fans of West Brom saw the departure as a cause for celebration. As you can see:

West Brom have finally sacked Allan Pardew

Pardew's sacking long overdue. No doubt he'll get a Premier League job again next season though when another bottom half team sacks their manager.

But not everyone was as happy with the move as them.
The World Bollard association have issued a statement following Pardew’s release, as they have apparently received an influx of messages via the #WBA hastag.
They followed up the initial statement, by adding: “Alan Pardew managed 11 bollards. We manage over half a billion bollards worldwide.”
Can everyone please stop tweeting us about Alan Pardew
