Sam Allardyce had a busy first day as the new head coach of West Bromwich Albion.
The boss arrived bright and early at the Monster HydroSport Training Ground on Thursday morning to check out his new surroundings, before meeting the players and staff a little later in the morning.
After overseeing a light training session, it was straight up to The Hawthorns for interviews with club TV, broadcasters, radio reporters and journalists.
Club Photographer Adam Fradgley was on hand to snap Sam’s opening day from start to finish and we’ve put a selection of his photos into a gallery. Enjoy.
