Petrovic pays the price.

Question

Petrovic pays the price. Why did Petrovic pay the price? Can someone tell me the details?

Answer 1

West Ham United have parted company with assistant manager Zeljko Petrovic as they attempt to turn round their faltering season. Petrovic had only been at Upton Park for four months, having joined in late July as part of new manager Avram Grant's backroom staff. Yesterday a brief statement on the West Ham website read: "The club would like to wish Zeljko for his efforts during his four months and wish him well for the future." The former Yugoslavia midfielder joined West Ham having managed Boavista in Portugal and Dutch club RKC Waalwijk, as well as a spell assisting Martin Jol at Hamburg but he paid the price for the Hammers bad start to the season. They are currently bottom with just nine points from their first 14 games and have only won one PremierLeague game so far, the fewest in the division.
