(Reuters) - Tony Pulis has been sacked as West Bromwich Albion manager after nearly three years in charge following a run of poor results, the Premier League club said on Monday. West Brom are 17th in the standings with 10 points from 12 games, having lost six of their 12 matches. West Brom ended last season in 10th position but finished the campaign with one win in their last eight league games. Pulis, who has also managed Stoke City and Crystal Palace in the Premier League, became West Brom manager in January 2015 when they were 17th and helped them finish in 13th place. Pulis is the fifth Premier League manager to lose his job this season after Palace's Frank de Boer, Leicester City's Craig Shakespeare, Everton's Ronald Koeman and West Ham United's Slaven Bilic were all sacked.
