Mick McCarthy reacts to ‘red-hot’ emotions at Wolves
Monday 24th October 2011, 10:55AM BST.
Under-fire Wolves boss Mick McCarthy admitted his emotions were running “red-hot” after the abuse he received on Saturday – but refused to bow to the critics calling for his sacking.
The Molineux chief had to endure chants of “you’re getting sacked in the morning” after a double substitution, which actually enabled Wolves to end their five-match losing run in Saturday’s 2-2 draw against Swansea.
McCarthy winked and turned on his heels to end his radio interview afterwards when asked if the fans were patient during the comeback.
But, beyond some sarcasm, the frustrated McCarthy kept his emotions in check.
He said: “When you’re having a toil and a struggle, everything apparently is wrong – from me to the performance of the players.
“There were a lot of emotions swimming around. They were red-hot – delighted with the result but angry with a lot of other things which I’m not going to talk about.”
