Alan Pardew’s departure is causing huge problems for the World Bollard Association

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. https://twitter.com/WBA/status/980753887228547072?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw&ref_url=http%3A%2F%2Flebuzz.eurosport.co.uk%2Fviral%2Fworld-bollard-association-make-alan-pardew-plea-36102%2F&tfw_creator=LeBuzz&tfw_site=LeBuzz 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: https://twitter.com/NicklessRoss/status/980756872922791936   https://twitter.com/Jhiggins3/status/980755453893373952 https://twitter.com/Blacklebo/status/980765910192574464 https://twitter.com/utdBrett/status/980807559014699009 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." https://twitter.com/WorldBollard/status/980780101213310976?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw&ref_url=http%3A%2F%2Flebuzz.eurosport.co.uk%2Fviral%2Fworld-bollard-association-make-alan-pardew-plea-36102%2F https://twitter.com/WorldBollard/status/980785187712847873?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw&ref_url=http%3A%2F%2Flebuzz.eurosport.co.uk%2Fviral%2Fworld-bollard-association-make-alan-pardew-plea-36102%2F
