Freddy put on transfer list

freddy.jpgFreddy Eastwood was today officially slapped on the transfer list by Wolves.

The 24-year-old striker, who arrived from Southend for £1.5m last summer, has been told by boss Mick McCarthy that he hasn’t done well enough and doesn’t fit into his team.

Championship rivals Coventry will make a fresh move for Eastwood in the coming weeks - but the fans’ favourite is definitely leaving Molineux.

“I have had discussions with him and he has been made available for transfer and he knows that,” said McCarthy.

“There are times when he has not done well enough.

“I have said to him maybe that’s me as well - Freddy is Freddy and he just does not fit into my team.

“It’s nothing personal, it’s just that he is not going to get into my side. He wants to play, so is available for transfer.”

McCarthy insisted he has no regrets about a player who has been arguably his most controversial signing.

The root of criticism from many Wolves fans has been McCarthy’s refusal to give Eastwood more match time - the former Southend hot-shot has made just ten League starts this season, with a further 21 appearances coming off the bench.

“I don’t do that regret nonsense,” said McCarthy. “I had watched him often enough, others had watched him and we thought he would be a great player in the side.

“We thought he would fit in, but it just hasn’t worked out. He might be the best he can at what he does. I don’t think he did that during the season and it’s just not for me.”

McCarthy has received assurances from star keeper Wayne Hennessey that he intends to stay at Molineux for at least another season.

“He came in to say thanks for putting faith in him, but I ended up thanking him for having such a great season,” added the boss.

“His view on it is that he needs to play. He wants to be in the first team and at the moment he is a first-choice keeper irrespective of who comes back for the start of next season. He knows he has to improve and he wants to develop here.”

McCarthy won’t release his retained list until later this week or early next week.

    Lets get rid im sick of reading about him.
    Clear the decks and start again

    Gibbons start your engines.

  3. GW said:

    The bottom line, MM is staying as manager and Freddy was always going to go based on the fact it just hasn’t worked out for either party and he wants to play. All fair enough.

    I await the comments of the mindless minority with pins ready to stick in my eyes.

  4. Nathan Lloyd said:

    How about a McCarthy transfer instead?

  5. Roy said:

    Yes I agree get rid of McCarthy and clear the decks and start again with a manager who knows what he is doing.

  6. drayton wolf said:

    god i can’t cope with the arrogance of this muppet.it turns my stomach and makes my blood boil that he is still the manager of our great club.
    Best of luck freddie wherever you go,you’ve proven you can score regularly at international level but you don’t run round enough for the muppett who stated at the end of the season we just haven’t scored enough goals.

  7. Beobridge Wolf said:

    Good luck Freddie, never given a chance by the Muppet!
    Your big mistake was finding some ancient Welsh relative, why couldn’t you find an Irish ancestor?

  8. BNMAwolf said:

    Well Said Jon Lets use the money where its needed bolstering the defence

  9. SBB_UK said:

    I’ll give him a game for the Moulinex Mixres!

  10. PeteWolf said:

    Great scouting that then Mick.

  11. ProudWolvesFan said:

    this pathetic , ” he has not done well enough in my team” can you tell me who has this season , oh the premiership rated striker andy keogh who is going to fire us into the premiership!

    yeah right mccarthy, your a joke

  12. Woolly Bully said:

    GREAT NEWS - we’ve started slapping players on the transfer list who “haven’t done well enough” (to quote MM)…..

    Just out of interest Mick the Muppet, why haven’t you put Neil Collins, Darren Ward, Stephen Elliott, Darren Potter, Gary Breen, and Stephen Ward on the transfer list??

    They surely fall into the same category??

    Or is that that Mr McCarthy can’t handle someone who’s evidently got more quality about him than he does??

    We all know he’ll score against us next season - if ramming the words down MM’s throat means he’ll cost MM his job, then WWFC wins in the end.

  13. wolf-brainer said:

    disgrace! just because he doesnt fit into micks hoof tactics! collins has not done well enough but you dont see him slapped on the transfer list! nooo he gets praised for his shifts. mick McCarthys managment is dated and belongs in the 80’s this just sums him up. gotta go!

  14. Pertonian Wolf said:

    Bye bye freddy…. thanks for nothing but disruption.

    Well done mick for sticking to your guns

  15. Dr G said:

    Good - he was didn’t try half enough. Don’t you lot know that its not about skill these days …. all about how hard you work!!!!!!!!!!!!

  16. Angrywolf said:

    His better the Mick. What a waste of talent. One of the top strikers in the league turned into a walking talking dummy. Micks arrogance has cost him and Wolves an absolute gem.

    Poor management at its most evident.

  17. muppetout said:

    McCarthy this proves you are 100% an idiot. Lets hope Ebanks Blake doesnt get injured cause weve got nobody good as a replacement. Oh sorry S Ward, you muppet!. MM OUT

  18. Berkshire Wolf said:

    Good luck Freddy, hope you do well under Coleman. Shame it never worked out with us; nah well.

  19. MOTOWN BOY said:

    HARDLY A SURPRISE IS IT . RUMOUR HAS IT HE WOULDN’T PUT A “SHIFT IN ” IN TRAINING . GOOD LUCK FREDDIE - NO DOUBT YOU WILL COME BACK TO HAUNT US . NEVER MIND GETTING RID OF QUALITY - HOW ABOUT SHIPPING OUT SOME RUBBISH - COLLINS , STEPHEN AND DARREN WARD , KYLE , BREEN , ELLIOT , GIBSON , KEOGH ( YES KEOGH - RUNS AROUND LOOKING BUSY WITH NO END PRODUCT - TOTAL AND COMPLETE WASTE OF SPACE ) .

  20. bolanwolf said:

    Big mistake, the guy never had a chance, if he never fitted into his team, why buy him? Good luck Freddy, I’m sure you will get a better chance elsewhere.

  21. Wolvesben said:

    awful, absolutely disaster, i cant believe it what a waste of a good player

  22. Wolvesben said:

    awful waste of a good player who could be a league leader for us i feel!

  23. aussiewolver said:

    1.

    Sounds good.

  24. The Wolf said:

    Good Luck Freddy!

  25. Rashy said:

    it should be MM going

  26. Boris's Johnson said:

    Thank god for that! They really don’t like him do they!

  27. smithy said:

    Madness. Bet you where ever he ends up he will score goals. If he had been given a proper run in the starting line up, he would have scored these goals for Wolves. Wolves would do better clearing the decks of the ex-Sunderland ex Repubic of Ireland crowd. Too many of these not up to the mark.

  28. stuwolf said:

    Well I suppose Mcarthy will live and die by making these kind of decisions,I dare say “time will tell”.
    I would like to wish Freddie all the best,but also for wolves I hope MM’s got it right.
    Somehow I don’t think he has,but we’ll know for sure next season.
    UP THE WOLVES!!

  29. dappa100 said:

    if he has not done anuff then the hole team is on list,ect 4 playes ?

  30. Tony said:

    Sad day but lets home we recover our money at least if he goes to Coventry or elsewhere- and that he doesnt come back to bite us like so many ex players.

  31. Max180604 said:

    Your call Mick. Obviously a clash of personalities but I have a feeling that this will come back to bite us. Either way we need to replace Freddie and find a 20 goal a season man to partner SEB. Keogh is not good enough and is not the answer. We will not get promoted with a striker who bags 10 or so goals a season.

  32. true fan said:

    get rid, he’s no better than Bothroyd.

  33. Marlow Wolf said:

    Sorry Jon, I have different perspective.

    ….and this is that not “A Freddy is God” post.

    Eastwood is clearly a player that has the potential to do well. Sadly it will now be at another Club.

    What really concerns me is the manager’s apparent lack of ability to get the best from maybe difficult, but clearly talented players. To me, it just provides more fuel for the MM haters who belive he is only comfortable working closely with players that are not challanging.

    Sadly again that was all too apparent in the style of play seen in many, many games during the season, when lack of charecter and determination were so painfully missing.

    Let us hope the Summer proves that he will sign fiesty players that get stuck in and show real leadership.

  34. Jay said:

    I hope he scores a hat trick against us next season. DISGRACEFUL. MM OUT

  35. Next season said:

    “There are times when he has not done well enough.

    “I have said to him maybe that’s me as well - Freddy is Freddy and he just does not fit into my team.

    No maybe about it Mick.

  36. brummie rob wolves said:

    1) The point is he signed him and paid a lot of money.The next one will be Darren Ward. No one can tell me that he is worse than Neill Collins.
    There are many signings within our squad that have the fans divided and Freddy is the main one. Others are Potter, D.Ward and Henry.
    They must get a quality goalscorer lined up alongside a centre half very quickly.

  37. NathanWolves said:

    We all knew this was coming, just a shame it has. I agree with 1 Jon’s comments, lets forget about him now, get rid of the rest of the dead wood and start building for next year.
    I am sitting firmly in the get rid of Mick camp though. Anyone else in with me?

  38. Tonywolf said:

    It’s McCarthy who hasn’t done enough. He’s the one who should be going!!!!!!!!!!

  39. Spuddy said:

    a player who has good touch, goal threat and can drop deep and pass a ball - damn right he doesnt fit into a Mcarthey team!

    There are times he didnt do well enough - which of the 10 mins at the end of a game was that mick?

    Too many times we jump to change the manager and lets hope Mick gets it right next year but having watched nearly all our games this year i know Freddy has more ability than Keogh, Elliot, Ward, Kyle and Bothroyd - we have wasted an oppourtunity with this one

    Good luck Freddy, you will still have a great career

  40. James Rees, Cannock said:

    So Freddy doesn’t fit into your team McCarthy, well I have news for you McCarthy, YOU don’t fit into my idea of a Wolves manager, it’s nothing personal BUT YOU ARE CRAP!!

  41. tonimischi said:

    Square peg round hole…shame great player and he’ll be scoring against MMs team next year…and i am half hoping he scores a hatful of goals for someone to show us what inflexibility means to management style….

  42. jjwolves said:

    Not done well enough???? How was that pass last Sunday McCarthy, not good enough for you, you want someone who runs around like a headless chicken without doing anything (Stephen Ward?)…..McCarthy is an idiot

  43. WOLF said:

    Freddy Eastwood will always score more than featherweight Keogh. Mick is gona get it next year if we start poorly - a lot of fans won’t put up with any more duff signings in the Potter/Gibson/Ward(both)/Collins mode. Oh well Kyle will be in so we can lump it to him next year. More pretty football to watch.

  44. Oli said:

    Of course Eastwood didn’t play well :/

    McCarthy didn’t bloody play him enough to let him shine, he should be sacked, Freddy is an amazing player, and could get actually get us into the playoffs.

  45. rubster said:

    your right mick freddy hasnt done well enough!!!!!! playing in a winning team untill you got it in for him.playing 10 mins every week i doubt there is a player in the land who would of been a success.roy keane was right about you and the majority of wolves fans wont let you forget this now.you have signed your p45 and the quicker it gets processed the better.

  46. worcester_wolf said:

    AT Last!

  47. cashman said:

    Dear Mr Mcarthy, This one will prove you wrong probably by scoring goals against his old club but hopefully you wont be there to see it. Outer Mongolia need a coach

    Gawd !!!!
    Have you not nothing better to do than mourn our 4 goals a season super striker ?
    He has gone get over it move on.
    Was you all this emotional when Steps broke up ?

  49. Breretonwolf said:

    He won’t score 20+ goals at Championship level or higher. He’s too bone idle, and doesn’t get into the box enough.

  50. DunblaneWolf said:

    Thank God! Finally we get this whole thing over with, it’s up to Moxey and Morgan now to get a decent transfer fee for him. 1.5M would be reasonable but we could probably squeeze some more money out of Coventry if we start a bidding war.

    Freddie is obviously talented but just didn’t fit in with the rest of the team. This whole situation can be salvaged but only if we bring in some real quality to replace him.

  51. Mark Leach said:

    Rosa doesn’t fit in to the team either. Will we see him on the transfer list as well ?

  52. U2 WOLF said:

    £3m for him . but good riddence i say. Get good money Moxey nothing less will do . cover his fee and wages be a good accountant for once.

  53. Wolves9 said:

    Not really to fussed if he stayed or went, looks like he has some potential, but also looked lazy and big time. Not really worth getting worked up about.

  54. SUPERSTARDJWOLVES said:

    Comment 1 you are a tool! I guess you are happy with Stephen Ward then Freddy.

    Freddy all the best son, I am sure Chris Coleman or whoever will see you at your best. Pity Mental Mickey sees you no better than Stephen Ward.

    Comment 21. Steps were a great band I just wish they would reform….. :-)

  55. Joe Bloggs said:

    I think this is an absolute disgrace, how Moxey and McCarthy can say he has been disappointing is beyond me.

    When he started he was scoring goals. I like Keogh I really do but the bottom line is he doesn’t score enough goals, I think Freddy and SEB could bag goals for fun.

    Typical wolves me thinks!

  56. SUPERSTARDJWOLVES said:

    I meant comment 28 re: Steps ha ha the heat is obviously getting to me.

  57. Jacko said:

    If Mick thinks this is an end to it I think he misunderstands the situation. If he had been given a chance and failed no-one would be bothered, but he now has a point to prove aility and a welsh manager who will believe in him. He will score plenty, lets hope Wolves score more.

  58. south bank faithful! said:

    Shocking..MARK MY WORDS,All you people sticking up for MAD MICK will be wishing he was the one going come ten games in to the season.He a complete idiot.HOW BAD WAS THE FOOTBALL WE PLAYED THIS SEASON??and dont give me that it was because we had players injured,all teams have had the same..and as for luck..YOU MAKE YOUR OWN.S ward,D ward,Kyle,Elliot,potter,collins sending Craddock on loan,What rubbish.And all this D Jones and Little being sent in and out every two mins…THE PLACE IS A JOKE…Not forgetting Rosa..was he even given a chance???Enough said.Get the hell out of here Mick….

  59. wilko said:

    mm doesn’t know what he is doing lets get rid of him.
    whats he finking letting freddy go he jst wants to c the club stay in the league

  60. we8wba said:

    wheres the likes of

    collins, ward, elliot, bothroyd on this transfer list? shows you what a joke he is!

  61. wolveswolves said:

    Lets take bets how many he will score next season?
    I would say 20+ and Keogh maybe 10 again if we’re lucky, Elliot might get one.

    Disaster Mick, now this is why we call you Thick Mick

  62. we8wba said:

    AS I SAID MANY A TIME

    funny how so many clubs knocking on our door enquiring about freddy eastwood

    yet how many enquiries have we had for

    s.ward?
    s.elliot?
    a.keogh?

  63. Adam said:

    end of the day freedy had done nothing for us. So good riddence! Why cant anyone see thatw e have 2 good strikers under the names of Andy Keogh and ebanks blake! WELL DONE MICK LETS PUSH FOR NEXT SEASON GET SOME NEW PLAYERS AND START A FRESH AND DONT LISTEN TO NEGATIVE SUPPORTERS WHO DONT UNDERSTAND THINGS TAKE TIME!

  64. Mike Hunt said:

    He’ll be coming back to haunt us next season! Just you watch!

  65. Grumpy Ole Man said:

    Time for us all to rub our hands, gleafully.
    Roy Keane has released 4 deadbeats and one of them is Irish !

    All together now. ” ? ? ? ? “

  66. bantocker said:

    According to the E&S report, “he just does not fit into my team” - the manager calls it ‘my’ team. I thought it was the Wolves’ team or the owner’s team, but not an employee’s team. This manager’s personality does not have Hoddle’s wackiness, just the same delusions of entitlement and grandeur.

  67. Nickswolves said:

    Fed up with the whole Freddy saga, at the end of the day he didn’t fit in so had to go. Agree with the decision to transfer list him and glad it’s bought an end to all the fuss! He’s not THAT good as has proved (yes he’s had enough chance to prove himself!). Get behind MM we need support not divide.

  68. MARKTIPTON said:

    No qualms

  69. mac said:

    Good luck fred hope your hat trick against us helps to get the muppet out.

  70. MARKTIPTON said:

    No qualms about Eastwood leaving if McCarthy sincerely feels that he his not up to sufficient standard. But where the hell does that leave a number of Wolves personnel who are definitely not the required standard

  71. Mozzawolves said:

    So what has this fantastic player done since he came to the club?

    4 goals, thats all, not good enough!!!!

    In Mick we trust!!!!!!!!

  72. Monkster said:

    Get McCarthy out now, this confirms the guy just doesn’t have a clue.
    Another season of false dawns awaits followed by a final day of disappointment as Wolves finish 7th because while Coventry could only draw we failed to beat Blackpool by the 25 goals we needed to overtake them on goal difference.

    You heard it here first.

  73. Dane Ole said:

    A complete joke but it was to be expected. Muppet didn’t have the guts to do it during the season. Now there’s nobody to boo him on a saturday.

  74. Weston Wolf said:

    Unfortunately this news was inevitable and is almost as inevitable as the howls for McCarthy’s head if we don’t make a flying start to next season.

    Yes Mr. McCarthy the pressure is on your head now !

  75. Glorybox said:

    Unfortunately by the time he makes MM eat his words MM himself will be long gone and we’ll be left with all of the regrets

  76. mac said:

    SACK MICK KEEP FRED.

  77. wolf66 said:

    My money’s on Freddy proving stuuborn Mick wrong.

  78. BONESWBA said:

    29) I rate Eastwood but there is no way your doubling your money mate, not after the way he’s been treated, and games he has had!

  79. deeps said:

    freddy didn’t get a fair crack whilst he was at wolves, and thats purely down to his relationship with MM…

    But since we have to suffer MM for at least the start of the season, it is probably best he leaves for the good of the players who are staying… it can’t have been nice for our forwards hearing freddys name been chanted whilst they were playing…

    good luck to him..

  80. southbank barmy army said:

    Get rid of him he`s useless. I`d buy Kyle, holds the ball up superbly.
    Trust Mick, he`ll take us up next year.

  81. CanadaWolf said:

    I hope he goes to Coventry then comes to Wolves and knocks in a hat trick! He can then laugh at the muppet who will look an even bigger pratt than he does now. The very best of luck Freddy. Muppet and Moxey out!!!!

  82. 100%Wolf said:

    Compare Eastwood’s and Keogh’s goalscoring record when the both played in the same division For Southend and Scunny !!

    Compare Eastwood’s and Keogh’s International goalscoring records ( difficult I know as Keogh can’t get into his International side often) !!

    Compare Eastwood’s and Keogh’s goalscoring record this season (on a goals per minute played basis).

    Now lets wait and compare Eastwood’s and Keogh’s goalscoring NEXT season (where ever Freddy may be)….!!

    ps. I am not Keogh bashing, but putting a reasonable head to head comparison on which player would have given us a best chance of success…

    I know who I would have gone for. Sadly MM and his ego thought otherwise !!

  83. 100%Wolf said:

    Looks like Andy Cole will be Freddys replacement, afterall Sunderland have released him today, Varga anyone….oh, and Ian Harte, now thats surely a foregone conclusion !!!

  84. Bournemouth Wolf said:

    Who decided to bring him to Molineux? And now says he wont fit into his team? Hmmm! Well didn’t he ought to have realised all this before spending 1.5m on him. A question of judgement I would say. A big one at that. Now what is he goingto bring into the club and say he doesn’t actually fit into my team.

    I have to say none of this inspires one with confidence. There are a number of players that have been bought in that fit the ? mark and I would suggest should be going rapidly - I think most of us know who these prople are?

    I am not confident that we wont have many a repitition here and be suffering the same again next season…

    Sorry to be doom and gloom, but I can’t see the light at the moment with things the way they are…! We are headed for more uncertainty and expensive mistakes or not spending enough on proven quality which is what is required..

  85. deeps said:

    ps this also shows that mr mogan and moxy are 100% behind MM…allowing him to do what he likes with the team..

  86. reidmail said:

    Comment 28 is spot on. The sheep will all be following each other and calling for Mick to go instead no doubt.
    WWFC is much bigger than any one player….
    Good luck Fred but better luck Wolves.

    Good riddance I say. Disruptive and unproductive.

    Freddy Next Season .. Good Luck And I No You Will Score 20 Goals+ For Coventry ( Or Whoever ) And Make Mick And Moxey Look Like Clowns Beacuse This Club Is A Joke !! Morgan I Hope You Know What You Are Doing With Puting Freddy On The Transfer List .. Many Fans Wont Be Very Happy At All And Next Season You Will Find OUt You Did THe Wrong Decision By Getin Rid Of Freddy Beacuse THe Attendances Are Defornatly Going To Drop Big Time !!

    Clubs That Want Freddy Eastwood :
    Coventry,Crystal Palace,Derby,Qpr,Nottingham Forest And Southend !!

    And Last Of All Freddy .. BEST OF LUCK YOU WILL NEVER BE FORGTON BY US WOLVES FANS AND MAKE MICK AND MOXEY LOOK LIKES CLOWNS NEXT SEASON FOR ME BY GETTING 20+ NEXT SEASON !! GOOD LUCK !! FREDDY IS WANDERER AND WILL NEVER BE FORGOTTON NANA NA NA HEY NANA NA NA HEY !!

  90. Essex Wolf said:

    Sorry Freddy, looks like you’ve wasted a season with us. You will no doubt go to a championship team and get 20+ next season. Southend could be on their way back up, my mate would like to see you back there anyway

  91. Billy Whis-Man said:

    If hes in the Championship–Definatly be at the game at our place–This beach is really hot–Keep the Dream Alive–Cheers.

  92. john birch said:

    seems a shame but i’m sure he’ll do well wherever he goes. good luck. as for mick i just hope he goes back the drawing board!

  93. shatpankwolves said:

    see ya freddy, thanks for the 3 (4 if you count morecombe) goals you scored, the penalty miss against ipswich, the 1 through ball against plymouth sunday, and the lay off to keogh against QPR!!!!
    What a player, cant believe i didnt laugh while typing that.
    where will he go though??
    man utd, arsenal, liverpool (now that crouch is going), maybe villa or newcastle??
    nah Coventry……….. Brilliant!!

  94. GW said:

    Mick ain’t going, Freddy is.

    Learn to live with it muppets and maybe try supporting the team rather than wishing Freddy scores against us for someone else next year. Too much to ask?

  95. Fenwolf said:

    I give up - I’m going to watch my local team next season (Peterborough Utd). I can’t take anymore of this torture!!!

  96. UKOD said:

    On this basis Mad Mick you should be on your bike as well…dont suppose you fancy doing the honourable thing do you?

    I know who I would prefer to stay at the club!!!

  97. terryCHAMPIONbaggie said:

    if only he had been irish instead of welsh,i think you,l be staying in the championship for many years to come,you wont even pay decent wages boing boing

  98. Hartlebury Wolf Man said:

    Does this mean that, when he’s gone, the E & S pages will be empty?

    Are there going to be any redundancies due to lack of work for the sports writers at the E&S?

  99. Copenhagen Wolf said:

    Why on earth did we pay for him in the first place he McCarthy knew he didnt fit the system?
    Or maybe he didnt know, but thats just make McCarthy look even more stupid.

  100. Loyal-Cannock-Wolf said:

    Good Luck Freddy!

    Your a quality player, and would get us up next season with enough starts. When you come back to bite us I won’t hold it against you.

  101. Sandwell massive?? said:

    Better tek my away top back and get another name on then.

    Disappointing

  102. Loyal-Cannock-Wolf said:

    I hope Elliot, S.ward, D.ward, Collins are out too then, If MM thinks theyre better than Freddy he really has lost his mind.

  103. turgutrieswolf said:

    this sums mm up…we miss out on the play offs.cause we did not score enough goals..yet we had one who could & he never played him.and they all wonder WHY.yes we all know why.HE NEVER BUT A SHIFT IN.

  104. Tipton Wolf said:

    All the best FREDDY and as much as i hate to say it, its how i feel. If thick mick is still in charge next time you come to molineux please bang a few past us so all the muppets that doubt your abillity can see what a loss you are to WOLVES.

    35#Southbank, get in the shade chap, looks like sunstrokes setting in

  106. ExPat Aber said:

    I believe this will come back to haunt Wolves.
    Freddy scores goal last game of season against us, which stops us gettin a top two finish, then failing in the play offs.

    ive alread placed my bet for freddy to score against us next season…….

    What a bloody disgrace! Freddy is one of the most talented players in the squad. This is a clear sign that MM will be at the club next year. I thought S Morgan promised Premiership football by the end of next year - not a hope with MM and his backroom staff, so a year from now we will lose our talented youngsters as they get fed up with MM too.Wake up Morgan listen to the fans,or they will start to turn and all clubs need fans. MM is not going to achieve anything at the Wolves, so we need to sack him now. MM has no tactical brain, cannot attract the right players and is too stubborn to accept Freddy for the good of the team. All Moxey is doing is preserving his own interests. As a businessman Morgan we need a clear out of the deadwood now. MM and Moxey to go. I hope Freddy comes down the Wolves and bags a hatful and rams it down MM’s throat. MM you are a muppet and your not bigger than our club, so pack your stubborn yorkshire bags and take a long walk.

    “It’s nothing personal, it’s just that he is not going to get into my side. He wants to play, so is available for transfer.”

    I really had hoped it was personal, because otherwise it seems like McCarthy is a complete idiot.

    If Eastwood is transferlisted, the following players should be as well:
    Collins
    Ward(both)
    Elliott
    Potter
    Bothroyd
    Breen(free)

    But chances are that maybe just 1-2 of them will be sold. Why? Because McCarthy think the likes of Elliott are “different quality” while a talented striker such as Mr.Eastwood “just does not fit into my team.”

    Tragic really.

  115. RF said:

    Fair play to Mick, more than enough quality up front with Kyle and Elliott up front, if can get Stephen Carr and keep Michael Gray fit then promotion is almost certain.

    So why did MM buy him in the first place, another one of his great decisions. Aint answered that one has he…

    MM out by EOM.

    Why play him in a testimonial at Walsall then if the decision had already been made to sell him?

    get him out!!!!!

    Good ridance to Freddy Flamin eastwood. If he hadn’t been there maybe some of the numb skull south bank muppets might finally get behind the manager and the team.

    I’m fed up to the back teeth with hearin Freddy, Freddy. What exactly has he ever done?

    He’s only a welsh international because they’re scrapin the barrell. I’m glad he’s goin and I hope he take all the boo boys and 1 collective IQ fans with him!

    Good luck to MM and the rest of the lads.

  134. E11 Wolf said:

    This is rediculous. Every player deserves a run in the team but he’s better gone if Mick isn’t going to play him.

    I feel sorry for him cos its a year of his career gone down the pan. Of course if he ever returns to Molineux to play against us what’s the betting that he’ll score….

    One thing, if he goes for less than 1.5 million does Mick pay the difference?

    Good luck Freddy. Wish you well in the future.

  135. Jon Finlan said:

    53. you clown,people keep harping on about freddy doesnt help anyone,ok he might be a goalscorer but his face dont fit so we have to just get on with it.
    im just sick of reading about freddy all the time anyone would think we are talking about Ronaldinho.

    He’s leaving just face it and get on with it!!

    He might not be ronaldinho but lets face it MM would even put ronaldinho on the transfer list.

    To play in Micks team all you need to do is chase down the keeper and your in.

    He doesnt fit in the style MM plays - which is boring long ball - gd that should mean freddy stays MM goes - and Moxey!!

    FOR SOME REASON MY FIRST COMMENT ON FREDDY EASTWOOD WAS NOT PUBLISHED ? I DID NOT SWARE ALL I SAID ! I WILL PUT IT ANOTHER WAY I WISH HIM ALL THE BEST FOR NEXT SEASON WITH A CLUB AND HIGH PROFILE MANAGER WHO KNOWS HIS GAME.

  145. Copenhagen Wolf said:

    “im just sick of reading about freddy all the time anyone would think we are talking about Ronaldinho.”

    I am quite sure he would get the same treatment by McCarthy so maybe the comparison is not that far off.

    The reason people are mad, are because we have struggled for goals all season yet Eastwood is the only one of the strikers who was never given the chance. Even Elliott was picked instead of him, and I think that’s what makes McCarthys management so insane.

  146. Wolf-08 said:

    Mick being stubborn?! He’s being honest at least, but it smacks of trying to convince himself…

    Shame to see Eastwood go, but can’t blame him. Good luck!

  147. Matty Wolf said:

    Mick you don’t know what your doing so quit while your ahead, or should that be behind?
    You’ll regret what your doing next season when eastwood rips our diabolical defence to pieces

  148. Old Timer Wolf said:

    When wll Morgan wake up and rid us of this curse on our great club. Each decision the muppet makes is worse`and worse - surely even the most blinkered McCarthyites can now see he must go.

  149. Shrimper said:

    This is sad day for Wolves. I have watched Eastwood for many years. He is a proven goal scorer, but you need to be on the pitch for more than 10 mins in a week to be able to do this. MM has lost the plot. We really have lost a talent today and I am sorry boys but I hope that he comes back next season and scores a hat full against us. It is a disgrace how he has been treated.

    It looks like MM is staying then!! What about the dad’s army defence at the back, not to mention some of MM little so called gems. Makes you laugh they are the ones who do not fit! Any manager that needs to move 5 players around to complete 1 subsituition does not fit.

    We need to get MM out. I am fed up with him going from, ‘yeh we are aiming for promotion, to we can win the playoffs to, we are not good enough!!!!!!

    I will support Eastwood wherever he goes.

  150. Wulf said:

    It’s not worked out and he is going to move on. Even if he goes to another club and scores loads it still doesn’t mean he would have at Wolves. He seems to drop too deep and want to shoot from range. He’s more like a lazy attacking midfielder and with the money from his sale we can put towards a better midfielder than he’ll ever be. BYE FREDDY, GOOD LUCK EXCEPT AGAINST US!

  151. QB WOLVES said:

    Good Luck to Freddy wherever you go. I shall be sorry to see you go, you where never given a chance, 10 mins at the end of a match is no good.
    McCarthey as ruined wolves season, too much deadwood MM being the main one. I have missed 9 home games this season just because i had no interest, and will not be renewing my season ticket this time. And as for rebuilding the stadium to seat 40000, you can fill 25000 seats let alone 40000.
    Get rid of MM and JM because no matter how much you get for Freddy it will not be invested in a replacement but only in JM bonus!!

  152. Simon in Oklahoma! said:

    Two things spring to mind…why was he signed in the first place when he’s played exactly as he was expected to. It must have been pretty obvious back then whether he would ‘fit’ or not.

    Secondly, when Coventry were desperate to have him, and we clearly didn’t want him…pulling out of the deal kept them in a relegation battle which was always going to be dependant on not losing to us. We forced them to do everything they could not to lose to us, which cost us promotion. …and NOW you want to send him there.

  153. NottsWolf said:

    (88)

    Looks like you are going to have to change your name.

    Personally I’m glad he’s going. I’ve never known Wolves fans be so divided on one issue.

    Let’s all unite for next season. We know we are the best let’s prove it.

    Come on lads…..

  154. George Berrys Afro said:

    Looks good at times but too ineffective overall. 35 appearences (admittedly a lot from the bench) 4 goals just isn’t a good enough return. However the worst bit is the split it has provided amongst the supporters so good luck Freddy but I can’t say I’m sorry to see you go.

  155. Bemused Wolf said:

    I’m disappointed about Freddie but believe there is more to this than meets the eye. As for Mick I am disappointed he is staying but who should replace him ? I’m not too sure. Anyway for next season I will continue to support my team and Mick in the belief he can get us promoted. If he fails he will be gone.
    What is sad about this season is the way we have all been at each others throats over Freddie and McCarthy. Lets all move on, Freddie is going Mick is staying - its Wolves we all support - not individuals

  156. Brett Powell said:

    Hi all,
    Firstly let me say that you do not have to hold a season ticket to be a Wolves fan. I personally did the majority of my time a Molyneux standing during the sixties and seventies, and it must be the best part of ten years since I last sat there to watch a football match, but I am still a fan, it is a life long commitment, you cannot get a divorce ( oh to stand there and say ” your honour when we first met I was young and Wolves were exiting; but now……….”). As a fan I/ we are all entitled to an opinion and the right to express it.
    Secondly statistics do not actually lie ( though they can be manipulated ) and the stats are that for the past three seasons the champions have scored:-

    For Against
    99 32
    76 47
    88 55

    While Wolves have scored:-

    For Against
    53 48
    59 56
    50 42

    The year we last gained promotion the figures were
    81 44

    conclusion:-

    We are at least 30 goals a season short of promotion.

    This past season our leading goalscorers; in terms of goals per game have been:-

    Denes Rosa ( all in reserves as he was never given a first team start ) who scored 13 goals in less than 26 games ( he missed some games and I am not sure how many ) but non the less has scored at a rate of better than: 1 in 2
    SEB 12 in 20 or 1 in 2
    Freddie 4 in 12 or 1 in 3
    Keough 11 in 38 or 1 in 3.5
    Elliot 5 in 19 or 1 in 4
    Kites 5 in 21 or 1 in 4

    So two of our three top scorers were just not given any starts, may explain the lack of goals, and begs the question does MM put his own feelings about players ahead of the good of the team ( bit like the Roy Keane / Ireland world cup situation? ).

    Another set of statistics, no team has ever had two forwards score 80 goals in a season between them, the best you can hope for is one scoring at a rate of 1 goal every 2 games, ( 23 per season ) and one at 1 in 3 ( 15 ) giving a total of 38 goals between then, leaves you needing 40 goals from midfield, that is 10 goals per player at a rate of 1 goal every 4 games. Our current midfield goalscoring rates are as follows:-

    Denes Rosa 13 in 26 rate 1 in 2
    Gray 3 in 11 1 in 4
    Edwards 1 in 10 1 in 10
    Oli 3 in 36 1 in 12
    Henry 3 in 42 1 in 14
    Gibson 1 in 16 1 in 16
    Jarvis 1 in 19 1 in 19
    Potter 0 in 15
    Ward 0 in 24

    Apart from yet again questioning MM’s treatment of Denes Rosa, and quite why we have no automatic player to step in to replace an injured Kites/Jarvis, it does clearly show where our goalscoring problems lie; in midfield. Frankly I was amazed to hear Oli described as an attacking midfielder, having spent the past four seasons assuming he was there as for his defencive qualities.

    My word Mr Mcarthy just gets better and better as the days go by .
    The two things the majority of baggies fans agreed on when you signed Freddy Eastwood for that money were
    1 Bloody hell thats a bargain and
    2 Wish we had signed him he will score goals in any team
    But apparently not M.M s teams you got to get rid of the muppet if you gonna get up next year .
    He is tactically inept and lacks motivational qaulities got plenty mates who are wolves threw and threw and they cant wait to see him go.
    All the best for next year under him you are going to need it

    The difference between the teams was Freddy Eastwood!! MM’s words after the Blackpool game!!! Hasn’t been given a chance to fit in. Not done well enough!!! and if thats the summer transfer policey then it will be a damn long list with mad mick at the top!!!
    MM says he has no regrets of this season let me remind him of afew then;

    Signing Darren Ward and Stephen Elliott
    Letting Jody Craddock go to Stoke
    Dropping Freddy when he was bang on form
    Constantly changing starting line up and formations
    Bringing Kites back to soon
    Refusing to play Freddy
    Slatting fans and saying he dosent care what we think
    picking weak benches
    AND NOT GETTING TO THE PREMIERSHIP!!!!!!

    p.s. not taking the South Korean job(my regret anyway)

  166. Tez said:

    This decision sums up McCarht’s ability as a manager. He is a FAILURE. Read his Wikipedia thread and it has failure written allo over it. Not only is he a failure he is stubborn too. Freddy Eastwood will go on to do well elsewhere whilst McCarthy will naively and stubbornly soldier on and bring us more failire. What a joke. I feel sorry for the people naive enough to continue to back him. You lot are too easy to please

  168. Mark B said:

    Good luck to Freddy.
    Not enough from what was supposed to be a good striker, so what if he comes back and scores against us most players do that.
    Get over it and wait and see what comes along, he aint the only striker around.

    But I must agree with the lack of a chance for Rosa.

    So Freddy is finally leaving, Ok I can accept that as long as MM doesnt become a total hipocrite and keep the rest of the no hopers here either. ie. Ward x 2, Collins, Bothroyd, Elliot, Potter, Breen, Edwards and fans favourite Henry to name just a few. And the jury is still out on the rest of his so called star young buys as well Foley (looked good at first, seems to of lost the plot lately, Jarvis (He looks like a bottler to be honest but hope he proves me wrong), Keogh (lacks quality but dont really like to critcise as he does give 100%) David Edwards (injury prone by the look of it so he should fit in well)
    I will give him Kites and Blake. But 2 quality players out of about 12 or so buys is simply not good enough. (What a waste of money)
    Just remind me who bought all these players here in the first place ? ermmmm oh ! would it be MM, TRANSFER LIST THIS CLOWN AS WELL !

    Last July n August I was really loking forward to the season with McCarthy’s purchases, big squad with loadsa potential. What a flop it was and we all know why, we’ve been posting the reasons on here ever since.

    This close season however it is completely the opposite, with Freddie now gone and all the other crap purchases likely to stay(cos no one else would ave em) I dread to think what he’ll bring in to bolster our Prem bid. If there will be anyone good they probably won’t fit in anyway in the end. All the kids will stay out on loan. I’ve bought a season ticket again but as opposed to last season, I am already not looking forward to next season. We will be too far behind by the time we get rid rid Zoot for the replacement manager to make a telling difference. Roll on the season after next

    Oh and by the way, good luck Freddy. Hope you ram it down Zoot’s throat next season whoever you play for and make a point of it on National TV n Radio n Press

  179. Ted was my uncle said:

    For those criticizing Freddy, I can only assume that you are just Moxey henchmen and have never been to a game and watched Freddy play.

    When he gets the ball he is like poetry in motion, he has that rare class that only a handful of players have. He does the unexpected, because he is wild and not coached!

    That is where the problem has occurred. McCarthy has only one tactic, and he couldn’t ram-fit Eastwood into it. So, as a thick Yorkie it was obvious that Freddy was wrong!

    Freddy may not be a world-class genius, however under the right manager don’t be too sure about that, but he provides that tingle when he is on the ball that only a few players can achieve. Waggy, Hinton, Richards had touch of it, but not as wild as our Eastwood.

    This is all lost on thick Mick, so obviously he has to go. Can’t put in a shift.

    This just illustrates how inadequate McCarthy is to run the Wolves for another season. It will end in tears, as it always does with McCarthy.

    We will be the poorer with yet another bad decision from a very bad CEO.

    In all honesty after a very messy Wolves career it will be good to see the back of him! The whole controversy has created all sorts of infighting that has been a strong contributing factor to our sad demise this season.

  188. WOODCROSS WOLF said:

    So as expected out goes Freddy,i mean of course he is not good enough ,he only scored twice in his last game for Wales. As has been mentioned he has not played for Ireland nor Sunderland so that may be the key issue that means he does not fit in at the wolves.So going by that we can expect to see the remaining non Ireland/Sunderland players being tranfer listed and mick signing Roy keanes cast offs in the closed season.

  189. goldwolfinFL said:

    Here’s a message for Nathan Lloyd, Roy, drayton wolf and all the rest of you “I love Freddie” fans and who are so anti Mick. Whatever team Eastwood goes to, FOLLOW HIM. We at Wolves do not want to listen to your whinning, whingeing comments on this board anymore.
    Mick McCarthy is the boss and none of you know what’s gone on behind the scenes. Your superstar scored 4 goals in 35 appearances, 23 as a sub. Not good enough in my opinion.
    So if all you doom and gloom merchants don’t agree with the set up at Wolves, THEN NAFF OFF TO ANOTHER CLUB. I’m sure I’m not alone when I say I’m tired of all the negative, unconstructive comments placed on this board by a majority of so called fans.
    GOOD RIDDANCE ONCE AND FOR ALL TO EASTWOOD.

    Denes Rosa has been on the transfer list for over a year but is still a Wolves squad member. Why does everyone think that he would have been our saviour when 91 managers don’t see him as fitting into their team? (ok most will have been ruled out of considering him by his compensation package).

    But, building on that observation, on that basis there is no guarantee that there is interest in any club signing Freddie (other than Coventry) so why wouldn’t he be a Wolves squad member next season?, fighting for a place and performing in training to guarantee a place in the team. It wouldn’t be the first time a Wolves player has been placed on the transfer list but been available for the 1st team and history has shown that some players respond well to that situation.

    Having been spoilt by the “Bully” years there is only one contender for the No. 9 shirt next season and Keogh is about 27th in line in my opinion (it has to be given to SEB).

    Overall the whole season has been a disappointment which was summed up on Sunday by the team knowing that if there was any chance of a good outcome at Watford (i.e a draw at best) they would need a 3 goal positive margin - but yet they only had one shot on target. Criminal!!!

    I’m sick and tired of shouting “shoot” from my vantage point in the stands to players that should have an inbred knowledge that kicking the ball towards the net is more likely to result in a goal than a drag back or an overhit chip to the far post.

    It’s all very frustrating! Get a shooting coach in over the summer and we’ll be laughing all the way to the Premiership.

    The fans also have to take a portion of the blame for him going IMO.

    Constantly chanting “Freddy Freddy” when strikers who were playing missed a chance did nothing to endear him to the fans who didn’t give a shit he wasn’t playing, or the manager who felt his players out there were getting a bum deal when it came to support and possibly a knock in confidence as well.

    Also it only helped to create a rift at the club between the fans and the manager which the media were all too soon to pick up on, prompting endless questions about him whenever a microphone was stuck underneath Moxey/McCarthy’s nose, and endless moronic calls to phone-ins demanding he be played or that with him in the team we would be champions.

    I’m sure McCarthy got sick of having to answer why he left him out of the team, even if he didn’t come out and say so.

    Then we come to the dressing room. It’s been mentioned that he doesn’t seem to have endeared himself to his team-mates, whether this be at training or in goal celebrations. I’m sure the other players who were giving their all week in week out felt some small amount of resentment that he was lauded as some kind of hero on the terraces, whilst every small mistake was jeered for them.

    It all adds up, and I’m sure there’s stuff been said behind closed doors. All in all it’s a good thing for the club and the rest of the team that he’s going. I wish him all the best at his next club but it would be more damaging if he stayed IMO.

    Well iv’e had enough regardless of what’s happening with fred being transfer listed (although he will come back to haunt us},
    mccarthy’s is a footballing dinosaur & tactically
    inept,the happy clapper’s only want him stay so they can be proved wrong in his 3RD SEASON!,in my eye’s this season he should have been looking for automatic promation,he should have built on the 06/07 season……..oh hang on a bit by buying d.ward & selling mcindoe when he knew jarvis was injured when he brought him and not haveing cover??,oh that’s another point he moan’s about haveing no cover for the left-side and send’s d.jones out on loan,basically he had the 06/07 season to sort his team out,and yes we overachived,this season he should built on it but have we???.

    108. You mean just like what happened with Bully?

  196. Morgan said:

    I salute Bret and his analysis. Aside from Seb, the club has today put the best goalscorer in the division on the list. He has scored all season long with Wales and was never given a chance at this club. We know only too well from history that he is gonna come back and celebrate the goals he scores in front of mccarthy- if he lasts that long. this club is not moving forward. 6 weeks into the season there will be another manager ‘trying’ to save our season, rebuilding in january and havin to think about ‘next season’. Next season. Building. Promising. Future. I am bored of hearing these words.

    I hope you are not refering to me.

    I’m NOT an armchair fan and I have probably seen more Wolves matches than you have had hot dinners.

    We can compare if you like, up to you!!

    “We at Wolves do not want to listen to your whinning, whingeing comments on this board anymore”

    187 - Then I suggest you stop looking at this board, because every Wolves fan are entitled to their opinion, and so far, the best argument coming from those anti-Eastwood people is for us, who think he has been treated unfair, to just “go somewhere else” which is not really an argument at all is it?

    Those who care about Wolves dont have to support our muppet manager or his insane team selection, but the club.

    We have the top striker in the Division, even better than that Philips bloke from down the road, so why are you all going on about some bloke who was only interested in setting himself up for the super goal?
    MM wants a partnership and has been trying to get one for the last two years, he now has that; Keogh to set them up Banks to put them away, Freddy would never do that he plays too deep and sets himself up not the partner.
    Steve Bull would never have scored all those goals without Mutch or Keen setting them up.
    It’s no wonder the Baggies fans call us the Dingles the way we moan all the time.

    If you have time, read article on internet: Danger! Micck McCarthy,posted by the ‘Guardian’ March 12th, 2003.

    In this article he told Denis Irwin to prove himself to him, what chance has Freddy got then?

    We will not succeed with this man in charge,period.

    Place bets on Freddy scoring against Wolves next season!

    goldwolfinFL Where are you based? FL= FLORIDA. If it is then you truely are from disneyland if you think MM is the right man. I think your comments is from a fan who is deleuded to think MM is going to take us to the premiership!

    I think you should shut up, log off and go back to bed you numpty!

  204. Robert Perry said:

    With MM staying he had to go but IMO its a great shame as its obvious the guy is a good player.Now how about slapping some of the others on the list.

    To All of Micks Muppetts who answer everything by telling people to go and support someone else. You have no right whatsoever to tell people where to go and who to support.

    We all are entitled to an opinion and just because it’s not supporting Thick Mick doesn’t mean it’s against the Wolves. Actually a lot of us feel you’re support of Mick is against the future of the wolves.

    With a decent manager this season we would have finished in the top 2.
