BroadstairsR 2,256 Posted February 12, 2012 Dreadful today, especially in the first half. Completely humiliated by local rivals and a team we have recently tucked up twice. I feel sorry for McCarthy and have liked him ever since his spat with the dreaded Roy Keane. I doubt now that he will last the week. What irony if he ends up at Ippy. He''s a better manager than Keane or Jewell IMO. It would have been a good result for us had we been in danger. As it is, it proves just how good we are and that the League doesn''t lie.

Sing Up The South Stand 0 Posted February 12, 2012 I''ve never really rated him to be honest.It''s one thing buying your way out of the championship (with Sunderland too) but he''s not cut it in the Prem IMO.Fair enough he''s kept Wolves up in the previous two seasons, but there''s been no progress. 15th in their first season, 17th last season and now look set to return to the Championship. Also at Sunderland he''d got 10 points from 28 games before being sacked. Bit like Warnock, good in the Championship but isn''t good enough to become succcessful in the top flight.

star_manic 0 Posted February 12, 2012 after this result the bottom five are 7 points adrift of 15th place villa who have just kicked off their match, so if they get at least a point the gap is 8. can''t see three of them making up that deficit let alone the 14 points to us so 3 relegated to come from the bottom five.

Mister Chops 7 Posted February 12, 2012 McCarthy strikes me as someone who relies on "old school" 4-4-2 football and can barely string two words together. I understand why this endears him to some, mostly people who think they could probably manage a football team because how hard can it be etc etc., but the reality is he''s bought poorly, set his teams up poorly and has no "plan B" when the game''s not going his way. Wolves will fire him tomorrow and get Steve Bruce back into management. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rudolph Hucker 0 Posted February 12, 2012 Wolves are in the midst of a massive ground re-development. Have they spent much on their team? When they go down they could be in serious financial problems. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
