McInnes 'fits the bill for West Brom post'

FORMER West Brom defender Darren Moore believes Derek McInnes would be the ideal candidate to replace Tony Mowbray as manager.

St Johnstone manager McInnes and Peterborough manager Darren Ferguson are believed to be among the leading candidates to take over at the Hawthorns after Mowbray's switch to Celtic. But Moore feels former Albion player McInnes would fit the bill for the Baggies.

Moore said: "Derek would be a top class appointment and I'm not just saying that because I played alongside him. I've played with a lot of footballers but Derek was special. Darren Ferguson's stock is already high and he's already being talked about with some jobs in the Premier League.

"Derek isn't at that stage but he brings a freshness that players can relate to which may work in his favour over the long term. People shouldn't look upon his inexperience as a bad thing – if anything it's the opposite."

Paul Ince has already declared an interest in the Albion job.
