West Brom boss Tony Pulis is happy working with chairman John Williams.

Williams has recommended a new contract for Pulis.

The manager said: “I get on well with John.

“He's been smashing since he came to the club.

“He's a football man and he understands how difficult it is to work in this league and at this level and to keep things going. He's been very supportive.

“The great thing with John is he liaises with (owner) Mr Lai on a regular basis and keeps him in touch with what we're trying to achieve.

“The balance within the club with the manager, chairman and owners has been as smooth as it could have been."
