The 2018–19 season is West Bromwich Albion 's first season in the Championship since 2009–10 and their 141st year in existence. In this season the club participated in the Championship , FA Cup and League Cup . On 18 May 2018, caretaker manager and former player Darren Moore was given the permanent job, after earning 11 points from 6 games in the previous season. He was sacked on 9 March 2019, despite the club sitting fourth in the table, a series of poor results forced the board to make the decision and the club 'will always hold Darren in such high regard'. First team coach James Shan took over as caretaker manager, who has been working for the club academy from under-7s age group all the way to under-23s.
They lost to local rivals Aston Villa on penalties in the play-offs semi-final on 14 May, failing to make an immediate return to the Premier League .
The season covers the period from 1 July 2018 to 30 June 2019, with competitive matches played between August and May.
