Back to the drawing board as Smith says ‘No’ to Wolves

Back to the drawing board as Smith says ‘No’ to Wolves

Wolves were this afternoon considering their options after Walter Smith rejected the chance to manage the club on a short-term basis.

The 63-year-old had been excited about the prospect of reviving Wolves’ fortunes while the club worked behind the scenes to find a long-term successor to Mick McCarthy in the summer.

Chief executive Jez Moxey knows Smith from their days at Rangers together in the early 1990s and the Wolves supremo turned to Ibrox’s second most successful manager after being met with a string of disappointments since sacking McCarthy 10 days ago.

And, as a dramatic day of twists unfolded, the longer Smith thought about the offer, reservations about turning around the club’s fortunes began to kick in, knowing he would only have been there until the end of the campaign.

Smith, who never met club officials face-to-face, had been in talks with the club over the last few days, and initially ‘no’ to managing the club on a longer-term basis.

Then he received a call last night asking if he would manage the club until the end of the season and was tempted – only to decide against it knowing he risked possibly closing his glittering career with a relegation on his CV.

“It’s true I’m not going,” Smith told the Express & Star this afternoon.

“I was totally unsure whether I really wanted to do it or not.

“It was a purely personal thing, nothing to do with Wolves.

“I know Jez and I knew I was more of a fall-back than anything. We didn’t even get as far as discussing money.

“There was never a face-to-face meeting and we never discussed finance.

“If someone asks you, you’re pleased to be asked, but the longer you think about it, you start to ask yourself whether it was right.”

It’s understood Wolves turned to Smith after meeting with disappointment elsewhere.

Alan Curbishley turned down the job twice, then they approached Reading and Brighton asking for permission to speak with respective managers Brian McDermott and Gus Poyet.

But they were denied the chance to speak with either of them after McDermott signed a new three-and-a-half year contract while Poyet claimed there was “no decision to make”.

Now Wolves have to pick up the pieces and decide where to turn to next, with Steve Bruce and Dave Jones in the frame and current interim boss Terry Connor ready to take it on a short-term basis.

He said himself that Wolves are a big club with a proud history and we are a one city club with a huge following. He asked himself what is going on. Not even the experts know! How embarrassing! He confirmed his radio station had been in contact with Jez but Jez has refused to come on and speak. Us fans deserve far better!

    Apparently, according to the Rotherham Chronicle, the Chuckle Brothers have said they would be interested in the job, “as it appears that anybody and everybody is being considered, we thought we would put ourselves forward”
    A Wolves spokesperson said “The Chuckle Brothers will be given every consideration for the position of manager of Wolverhampton Wanderers Football Club, as they are of a similar calibre to many of those we are currently interviewing. Without wishing to jump the gun, I think it is fair to say that such an appointment would help the club to continue to move in the right direction. However, there do seem to be some contractual problems, but the club will endeavour to overcome these over the next few days.”

    Reminds me of the old joke when we were in the Fourth division;
    I rang to ask what time kick off was and they said “what time can you get here?”

    Now its; I rang to ask if they’d appointed a manager and they said “when can you start?”

    General Melchett-Morgan and Captain Darling-Moxey must have a cunning plan, they can’t get anyone so they’re going to give the job Terry (Baldrick) Connor.

    This is just one big farce.. Appoint someone and give them an 18 month contract.. Put a clause in it that if we are relegated the contract can be canceled at the cost of say 2 months wages.. So all people are happy, depending on what division we are in. If I was Moxey I would get on my knees and sort the problem out with Alan Curbishley.. The fault is with Wolves approach, it is clear to see, not the managers in question.

    I really thought that Walter Smith would come, he has the experience and tactical knowledge to at least given us a fighting chance of survival. His refusal to take the job has so stigmatized the managers position that I can see no person who will now touch us. Maybe its time for Moxey to feel the axemans blade. Its a pity that Morgan cant feel it also!

    May be its the top management that is at fault, the Owner, CEO and other board members, that are unable to put an attractive deal together, my be, the wrong man was sacked after all.

    For god’s sake do something now, don’t let TC lead the Wolves players out at St James on Saturday, get Dave Jones on the phone,the only one left with the experience, talent and motivation to save Wolves…after all, he still has something to prove to Wolves management

    The problem you may now have is it’s public knowledge whoever gets the job will not be the first, second or third choice of your CEO and owner. Surely this puts whoever is chosen at a disadvantage with fans knowing this? The whole debacle could and should have been handled so much better by Moxey who, frankly looking from across the divide, looks like he really hasn’t got a plan or clue. The Newcastle game was his target; this set himself up for a fall and got hopes up far more than was necessary. Buffoon.

    Your first proper act as a Chairman. Not looking impressive is it?

    So you sacked our manager and never thought of who was going to steer the ship first?

    Incompetence doesn’t come close to this shambles.

    I would like to throw my hat into the ring as a season ticket holder and frequent traveller to away games. I’m honest, hardworking and wouldn’t play 4-2-4 in a relegation scrap having watched us struggle with 4-4-2 all season….having said that I would like a career rather than a dead end job so guess what….I’d turn you down and join the ever growing list.

    You wouldn’t make an investment without knowing a manager is looking after your interests so why do it with our club?

    My thoughts would now turn to Paul Ince – get the team fired up, the crowd fired up and go down with a good scrap. Perfect for him and sounds better than what I fear….

    I thought the CEO was bad but in reality it’s the fans which are dragging the club through the dirt. Get some dignity instead of moaning and making knee-jerk reactions to every news story. At least we’re in a decent position to get ourselves out of the relegation zone and are financially sound. Unlike Rangers and Portsmouth. Things aren’t that bad. It takes a split second to make a decision. Obviously the board want to make the correct decision and this’ll take a lot longer. I’d rather wait another couple of weeks and get the right man than just rush it because some mindless idiots have wet themselves and want attention.

    Wolves obviously have unrealistic expectations, it can’t be that all the managers approached who then turn it down all have unrealistic ideas of what they’d expect from a premier league club.

    Something stinks here, and the only common fcator in all the negotiations are Moxey and Morgan.

    Nevermind a new manager, how about we discover who is the culprit between Morgan and Moxey and encourage their replacement too.

    Everyday is not only a let down, but somehow becoming even more heart breaking and embarrassing with every E&S article. I do not have the knowlege or expertice to comment on how a football club should be run but I think any everyday football fan can see something is not quite right at the Molineux.

    Surely the way forward is for TC to be given the job until the end of the season. The players and coaches got the Club into this position; let them get the Club out of it.

    The mangaerial cupboard is bare. No one wants to take on a job for 13 games and risk getting relegated which will only make their own CV worse.

    In other words bite the bullet and start again next season either in the Premiership or Championship.

    I have in the past been a big supporter of the 3 m’s and thought the way they handled mick’s sacking was poor
    However I think the chief exec needs to consider his position. Much is made of wolves being run in sound business lines ,if so as in any business he has messed up royally and should do the honourable thing and resign. Morgan is the owner and as such he can do as he chooses whether or not the fans agree (sad but a reality).
    I have been a wolves fan for over 45 years and we have been through some tough times but this situation has a bad feeling about it. I think our chances of survival are looking worse by the day and Moxey has to shoulder the responsibility .

With not many games left its going to be very difficult for any manager to mark their stamp on the team .These managers are worried about their reputations as theirs a chance of relegation and you cannot blame them for that.Looking at your crop of players their really isnt alot of quality their hence the reason why the last couple of seasons you have been struggling .

    We shouldn’t be suprised that Mick ultimately failed with the dross we have for management of the club. Run like a business, just a numbers game if you don’t understand something ie passion, dedication and spirit how can you manage it?

    What we have is accounants and big business running the football side and two don’t mix.

    Shared vision, thats a joke the one thing lacking is vision other than bricks and mortar I cant see any and obviously neither can the range of Championship and unemployed managers turning us down. Talk about humiliation this is a truely a dark time in our history.

    According to people who’ve texted me who claim to be “in the know” at the Wolves (and who’ve been right on many occasions), there are three BIG rumours doing the rounds:

    1. Terry Connor until the end of the season (mainly because the players like him and he’s much more tactically aware than he’s given credit for!!

    2. Alan Curbishley is already a “done deal” and it’ll be revealed on Friday. Moxey hasn’t spoken to the press because he doesn’t need to and their “disagreement” was down to the young and hungry policy – basically, Curbishley wanted to reserve the right to sign “established” players….and Moxey and Morgan wanted pure youth!

    3. Roy Keane for 13 games, with a view to a permanent deal if he keeps us up!!

    what the board should of done is have somebody in as an advisory role once they sacked mccarthy to assist in appointing a manager.

    once mccarthy was sacked, they should of sat down for half a day, perused who was available or potentially available, picked their man, stick to the plan and appoint him swiftly, like Norwich did with Lambert, like WBA did with Hodgson, WHU with big sam etc etc.
    the problem is nobody wants the short term contract to rescue wolves with the current crop of players, inevitably take wolves down and lower their managerial stock!

    Somebody in the wolves corridors please take down the dart board that the heirarchy are using for the selection process asap!

    too red faced to appoint Bruce now… has to be somebody on a two year deal.Wilkins is known to be an exceptional coach but not a man-manager. Now its time for a gamble.

    The time has come for Jez Moxey TO STAND DOWN!
    Employing a manager is not the hardest thing in the world to do, neither is finding the right man but doing neither denotes a complete lack of ability and aptitude! – Why is this man at Molineux?
    How many potential managers has Moxey now spoken to I wonder? 3,4,10,20?
    It beggars belief that Wolverhampton Wanderers Football Club cannot find a suitable manager from a list as long as your arm! – If the club were plain Town Wanderers FC I could understand it!
    Is the club the ‘pits’ of football?
    It has become clearly apparent that the hierarchy at the club are the ones who are the problem for why else would so many potential candidates turn the club down and what does Alan Curbishley know that we don’t?
    No other club has such a problem with employing managers ONLY WOLVES!
    What a pity comedian Frank Carson has died. He would have been the perfect man to have taken over the reins for his persona was befitting of the present nature of the club – a complete joke!!!

    I have watched and supported the wolves for 62 years and our current situation thanks to a board of management that can only be described as lacking in vision,motivation,and totally out of touch of reality have brought this once famous club to its knees. MM did well to bring us into the premiership but it was obvious to all that he was out of his depth in this league and the board should have acted a long time ago. MM did well but his time was limited.

    It now looks odds on that it will a has been or a might be. I’ve questioned the ambition of the 2Ms for a long time.
    Rebuilding a nearly new stand to give a few more empty seats is not the sign off ambition, let alone putting the remainder of the plan on hold less than a year later. It is a sign that building stands in more of a priority than staying in the PL. Odd really, because everyone knows that the attendance will fall significantly in the fizzy pop, not to mention the Sky funding.
    It is clear that Steve Morgan is more interested in building houses and getting his name splashed across the E&S that ensuring the club is run well. That’s fine Steve, but please hands the running to someone competent and I don’t mean our man Jez.

    This is a disaster, how can two so called “business men” be so impotent. Couldn’t, wouldn’t make a decision at the end of last season. Had the opportunity prior to the transfer window shutting but spurned it, then reacted to the fan’s fall out from the local derby.

Oh, and i’ll only sign players under the age of 21. AND i’ll only want 20k a week. that way, if we go down, i can take the brunt of the stick, but as i’m ginger, i’ll be quite used to that. how’s that sound? similar credentials to those left willing to consider the job?…

    = Tight fisted, want it on the cheap, How much?, Not paying that!’ The same old, same old.
    It is very difficult to see this club surviving now. Quality managers will not come because they have their track record to think about and want to create a quality team to achieve results and compete with the best of them. Thats the reason why they are turning these pair of nincompupes down. Morgans vision
    for Wolves is obviously distorted. Much like Tony Blairs vision of globalisation when he was in Downing street! Look where we are now, Up crap creek without a paddle and wolves are heading the same way.

    I can quite honestly say ive never known anything like this fiasco.
    It seems that the boards “vision” is the problem and for me it must come down to money. A new manager at this level is going to want money spend and my guess is theres little on offer.
    I never thought i’d say this but maybe its time to draw a line under the whole saga and just say Clipboard’s in charge until the end of the season. I think they will wait now until after the weekend and see what happens. Knowing the Wolves we will go and get a result on Saturday. The problem is what happens if they get spanked again by 4 or 5? We would be up the proverbial creek without a paddle in that case because NOBODY would want it then.
    One things for sure, the game against Blackburn at home is going to be interesting. If this carries on its really not going to be a nice atmosphere which is only going to affect the players.
    All in all a complete joke. Morgan and Moxey have some major grovelling to do to the fans after this.

    Heard murmerings that one of the key reasons Smith has turned down the role is not because he wouldnt gain the respect from the players in 13 games, but that he wouldnt gain the respect from fans. If its true, it just goes to show that all those idiots that treated Mick and the players like dirt have done this club more harm than good.

    Cant blame any manager for not wanting to come here, as no doubt they all know by now that whatever they accomplish at this club, the moment things go the slightest bit bad, the fans will result to foul mouthed abuse and thuggish behaviour.

How the ultra shrewd Dan Ashworth scouts the right style of footballers from around the world and they are constantly reviewing their ‘next manager’ shortlist. I’ve said the same thing for years. And have you noticed how useless McCarthy’s backroom team are at this level? Taff Evans & Bowman’s scouting. When we had Chris Evans we had Keane, Naylor, Andrews, Murray, Lescott, Hennessey & Mark Davies etc all breaking through and playing Premier League football. Since he went after MM was appointed nothing!! I don’t think that is a coincidence. Maybe we should ask Evans back, possibly with Robert Kelly to look at the Youth policy. We also let a certain Psyco Downing go as well and he’s now No.2 to Roy at the Hawthorns!! They tell me Stan & Ollie are dead but i don’t know. I’m sure i’ve seen the fat one playing Chief Exec at Molineux and the thin one thinking he owns the club! ANOTHER FINE MESS!!!

    One thing is for sure, Wolves need the fans onside to have any chance of staying up.

    I was talking with one of the players about an hour ago after training and he had a typical bullish attitude and commented how the players are up for the Newcastle game.

    Two minutes later and the same player commented they have no idea whats happening behind the scenes.

    I took from it a big degree that there is an air of uncertainty in the squad. Seems obvious but the last 2 weeks has effected the players and we still seem as far away from resolving it as the first day when we sacked Mick.

    Where are people getting the idea that’s it’s about the money from? No ones even got as far to talk about contracts yet! Curbs didn’t like the vision, Walter smith has said he didn’t even get to talk about contracts. There’s two reasons why people don’t want it, one is clearly the direction the clubs going and the second is sadly the attitude of too many of the fans. MM is clearly well respected in the game & seemingly a thoroughly top bloke. Given the treatment he received from a large section of the wolves why would anyone want the job. As ever, be careful what you wish for!

    We will probably soldier on under TC (we should back him if that is the case) and then, when the season ends and our fate is decided, there will be no shortage of candidates. If we are still Premier League for another season, there will be fresh opportunities to recruit a decent manager who wants a crack at that league without imminent fear of relegation. If we are Championship again, then the up and coming Lee Clarke- types will fancy a go. Hollaway might, if not promoted again. Just hope, whatever happens, that the hierarchy have learned a lesson from all this. Hope we can achieve something positive on the pitch this Saturday. UTW

    For all of you banging on about ‘careful what you wish for’ and how good Mick was,hang on a minute!!Don’t blame us fans that travel miles and spend our hard earned cash on this club for being passionate. It is us numpties/rebel rousers that have seen all these problems coming and an inept leadership at Wolves, out of touch and disengaged that has caused these problems. Fact -Mick is the worst ever EPL Mgr, his record spoke for itself BUT the Board stuck with him when it was clear he could take us no further, it was the same board that squandered £18m on that oh so wonderful news stand that WE did not want. And the same board that sacked Mick without a contingency and at a stupid time. It is Jez & the Leadership of this Club that has to take most responsibility for this situation.
    A well run club is:
    1) Successful on the field (unlike us)
    2) Financially sound (questionable now we have spent £18m on stand and tkt sales will plumet)
    3) Engages and includes fans (the message from the board is inept, no comittment & cheapskates!!)

    Mr Morgan I think it’s about time you communicate with the fans as this is more and more of a fiasco and no-one has any faith in how the club is being run and this is down to you.
    As a lifelong Wolves fan this hurts and I’m not sure you get it.
    As Wolves fans we have been promised a bright future before, which ended up as a new stand and fourth division football.
    Sir Jack came along and re-built the ground and spent a lot of money on the team at a huge cost to him personally and in my view that restored huge pride back into the club. Sir Jack was Gold and Black through and through and he gifted the club to you to take us forward.
    Right now I wish you had got Liverpool and we could have watched this from afar.
    So much of what has gone on seems so bindingly obvious it’s hard to believe what’s happening is happening.
    There isn’t a Championship team out there filling a 30,000 capacity ground every week. We need to be sure of premiership football to support the ground development. At this rate we will have one stand to remember each past owner.
    Wolves stayed up last year, absolute miracle last game results, after during the season having a number of results which were never going to be repeated this year, i.e. wins against the big teams.
    It’s clear that money was not made available to spend on players to improve the squad apart from Roger who has had a bad season. If you’re not able to spend money, you must have a system in place for cheap raw talent and development, Mick didn’t do this, so why keep him as long as you did?
    It appears to show that neither you nor anyone around has a plan apart from cutting cost. If we go down is there going to be further cutting so that we can afford the developments? Thanks Steve just leave you with a thought from one of your own, Bill Shanky ‘At a football club, there’s a holy trinity – the players, the manager and the supporters. Directors don’t come into it. They are only there to sign the cheques.’

    Time to let Morgan and Moxey know how we feel. I have tried to to keep an open mind on Steve Morgan, on what his real intentions were for Wolverhampton Wanderers F.C. I am now wondering if they are just part of a building plan for his company Redrow and not building Wolves for the future. I am led to believe he was willing to put 100m in to Liverpool, and yes i can see how it would take more to buy in to them than us. What i can’t understand however, is why when the team needed investment to establish us as a PL team, i:e last summer/ this Jan, there was nothing substantial! And how such a complete and utter mess has been made out of replacing MM, yes it was overdue to get rid of him, but the timing stinks to high heaven. It further seems that we must be offering potential managers very little to work with. I urge everyone of us who have loved and supported the Wolves to write to the board and express our feelings (in a civilized manner please) and of course to stay away from games so it hits them in the pocket (the only thing they understand) I will not travel up from Cornwall again this season to support a CLUB with no ambition that is only interested in doing everything on the cheap, being prudent is one thing, embarisingly skinflint is another!!!

    Thank god we didn’t get Walter Smith what he would have done to this club wouldn’t have been any good for us to first;y stay in the prmeiership and secondly achieving that moving this club forward. I think the reason theres lots of managers who are rejecting us is because of the mess were in and how hard it will be to get good results top stay up in the remaining 13 games. Next manager i would seriously look at is Ray Wilkins, he’s the only person who could get us out of a situation like this. I know some may he doesn’t have any managerial experience but he has worked with the best players and best managers in the world such as Mourinho and Ancelotti. Look what happened as soon as he left Chelsea didn’t and aren’t doing as well which makes you think he has something of thats the careful.

    The boards lack of ambition and vision has seriously affected us getting an experienced manager. I have no doubts that they have gone for the right candidates like curbs, smith and Bruce but offered the wrong packages.

    If i was Smith, Bruce or Curbs i would be worried that there are too few games to turn things around and also that the quality of the squad is not really good enough to say with any confidence that we will stay up. I would be worried that if we got relegated that this would affect my reputation.

    Its crazy to here people calling for micks return and at the same time saying that dont wont Bruce.
    Have you compared Steve Bruces managerial record to Micks ? I think you’ll find Bruces records is far better.He’s certainly won more games and his team are defensively sound and have attacking flair.

    Morgan has made the fatal error of boxing himself into a corner by the poor timing of his decision to fire MM and the failure to have a backup plan. With 13 games to go and the team in free fall,why would he expect any reputable Manager with a sound track record to take the job on a short term basis only? And, given Morgan’s publicly stated attitudes towards the question of paying high salaries generally, he is getting bitten in the ass!!!

    The Club’s well known approach to pay has resulted in a squad that is at best Championship quality and an experienced Premiership Manager is going to have a running battle with the Club’S ownership when attempting to upgrade the playing /coaching staff.

    The priority in terms of investment to keep the Club in the top flight should surely be the footballing operations which includes team management and coaching staff. Morgan needs to eat crow, bite the bullet and offer a medium term contract to someone who wants the job and back the candidate up in the summer when changes will have to be made in the playing and coaching staff. There is so much speculation as to who is being approached it is impossible to have a strong feeling about anyone at the moment.

    Wolverhampton Wanderers are a proud old club with a rich history. There have however been dark days but I cannot remember anytime during the 80′s or any other period when we have been subject to the humiliation of the past couple of weeks. We all know Moxey for what he is arrogant,only here for the money always treating the fans with contempt. However we are only now getting the true measure of Morgan and it is clear for all to see that Curbishley etc don’t like what they are being told and the degree of commitment from the clubs owner. Look up the road in Stoke there is a proper club owner in Peter Coates he has backed his manager financially and they are an established part of the Premiership. The lesson here is to own a premiership club you need money and the balls to spend it!!! Personally I think Morgan should go away and preferably take Moxey with him. As for Saturday we should get behind Connor and the lads its not their fault and WE ARE WOLVES remember that.

    I wondered how long it would be before SirbillyQuiet popped back on with his happy clapping and at 267 here he is – and guess what… this fiasco is OUR fault !!

    Apparently the 100 or so people that post on here have frightended Alan Curbishley and Walter Smith away cos at West Ham and Rangers they never heard fans get a bit angry…. they don’t have fans like that !

    I feel terrible that by saying I didn’t think they were the best choices they have had to turn down half a million pounds a year plus some huge bonus if we stayed up…..

    So it’s nothing to do with Mt Morgan or Moxey or the dreadful way this club is run – its OUR fault that every manager we have approached has turned us down.

    SBQ – you are part of the atitude that is dragging this club through the muck to the amusement of our neighbours and football fans everywhere – grow up son.

    After seeing the Sky interview with Lee Clark I would give it to him. The guy is passionate, committed and proved he is a winner with a 43 game win streak.
    My ideal candidate would be Benitez.

    Its looking more and more like Morgan made the decision to fire MM on a whim. No real plan to recruit and no candidates lined up. The press has then assumed that we are only offering a 13 game contract and I believe that is false. I am sure its negotiable and there are all sorts of outs for both the club and the candidate.

    Its only been a week, this is selection of a manager for the worlds greatest club. We need to get it right.

    Moxey’s constant diet of spin might wash on the happy clapper brigade but as soon as he’s up against experienced football people they can see right through him – hence no one wanting the job.

    We are in a mess, who actually wants the job, 2 men have actually confirmed on nation radio and to some journalists that would like the job … Ray Wilkins and Dave Jones … Give it to Dave Jones he wants it, he has worked with Moxey before and more importantly club captain Roger Johnson, Jody Craddock and probably Hennessey when he was in the academy??? 12 games left may as well concede TC will take charge for Saturday, a couple of changes at the back will def happen, i’ve been told, Steve Bruce I feel sorry for, had an interview last week, no contact from the club since, i’ve been told Moxey wants Bruce but Morgan DOES NOT (not a good sign). So in the running we have Steve Bruce, Dave Jones, TC, maybe Wilkins who knows????? DAVE JONES out of work give him the chance or we are doomed, i’m sure he feels he has unfinished business after Hayward hung him out to dry in the Prem last time around …. Come on lets get behind whoever they appoint and the M&M we do care about this club!

    I would add that Moxey has apparently denied offering the job to several managers. So how true were the various articles?

    Is this E & S hype? Great reading, but the early apparent disclosure of Smith’s rejection is destroying the club I have supported all my life (65 years) Any manager worth his salt would seriously wonder whether he would wish to take the job on now!

    Unrealistic expectations of the fans, delusions of grandeur with this ‘big club’ attitude, vitriolic booing of the manager when things don’t go as expected?

    These people have memories, and past chairmen and managers have been treated disgracefully. Fact.

    Adjustment to reality required. Yes, wolves *were* a big club. They are now a sensibly run club in a world of make-believe money. Mick had done well given his restrictions, and he was an honest guy.

    Perspe five please.
    1 We are still in the premiership-
    yes, at the wrong end and increasingly looking unlikely to get out of it, only ‘still’ there because you cant be got out till the end of the season, a team with 0 points would ‘still’ be there, this is not an achievement.
    2 we have 13 games to save the season-
    and given the win ratio based on games so far this season you expect how many points from those 13 games?
    3 at least the ‘confusion’ proves that the management were honourable and not canvassing candidates behind MM’s back-
    honourable, probably not the right word in this situation, foolish would be more appropriate.
    4 the out of work managers turning us down can stay out of work as far as I’m concerned-
    well that just being bitter, don’t you think?
    5 we have a viable club with no debt we are properly financially run-
    Yes, again dubious, don’t forget figures not in for this year yet, and, if done properly, will be 18 million down on a new stand for a start of.
    6 it takes time to get the right people into the club – no panic-
    No panic, ok, relegation zone, back of a mauling by the local rivals, mangerless, turned down by several replacements, some twice even, fans in utter turmoil, no transfer fund, not likely to attract any new signings in this situation, you just let everyone know when you think its ok to panic!
    7 judge the management at the season end we need to pull together to avoide relegation-
    Agreed, but I think I know how the majority will be judging it.
    8 anyone who thinks this is bad has forgotton the dark days of the Bhatties and weeds on the south bank.-
    Ah! that old chestnut, just because the club has now mor(gan)tgaged up to the hilt on a new stand doesn’t mean it is any better off. Give me 18 million to spend on a team, and I will pull the weeds up myself.
    9 get a grip and give it time-
    Sure, how much time do you reckon should be given?

    Your right, after reading all your points its not that bad, is it, now where did I put them specs?

    Agreed Morgan and Moxley have royally messed up the recruitment of the new manager and should hang their heads in shame at this embarrassing debacle.

    However, will all you happy clappers stop harping on about McCarthy. He’s gone and he’s not coming back, so get over it! Two wins and just 11 points from the last 14 games (not to mention our biggest Prem home thrashing, against Sandwell of all people, in the last one!). What did you idiots see, in that game, which makes you think we would do any better under his stewardship in the final 13? We were only going one way and that was down into the Championship. Whomever the new Manager is (not Bruce please) I don’t expect to be called an “idiot”, “Numpty” or be offered out for a fight after watching another woeful home performance and daring to express our frustrations! Good riddance MM. I will always be gratful to you for what you did, but your eventual stubborn arrogance, disdain for us fans and ridiculous team selections/tactics had made you extremely dislikable and you certainly won’t be missed by me.

    As for these two clowns in charge now; well they’re really going to have to pull something spectacular out of the bag now,if they expect me to renew my season ticket (after having one for over 20 years). I won’t hold my breath!

    The results point to one inescapable fact – it is NOT WORTH the money(£30+) to go and watch a poor performing team. And all the comments after every game say the same thing they played poorly….so those supporting McClueless get a life after all he got an alleged six figure payoff.

    Now a new manager will have the chance to put bums back on seats and bring in fans to Molineux by getting the players to play exciting football….otherwise more fans will stop going.

Every bad result has ended in posts on here of “this is the worst time in my xx years as a supporter” crap. Who on earth would want to own and manage our club, with fans as fickle as ours. Carry on and watch Morgan walk and watch a consortium of no hopers come in and then lets see how bad things get. Mick had to go and maybe should have gone sooner, but do you not think the fans voice triggered this snap decision. Who cares if Morgan is making money on the housing deal at the training ground, wouldn’t you want some return on a multi million pound investment. And all the time all he gets is a slating.

    Hi fellow posters
    As you all know by this time I love Wolves and Glasgow Celtic with a passion. And for me to advocate ex-Rangers manager Walter Smith as a ‘quick fix’ solution to the Mol problem took some doing!! However, now that he is out of the frame,I still maintain he was the man for the job.
    For Walter to turn down a lucrative 13-game contract must have stemmed from negative vibes from our boardroom.
    I would now ask the powers that be to have a long, clear look at where the famous Wolverhampton Wanderers FC is going.
    Finacially ok certainly, but for how long if the slide continues. Lots of empty seats in the new SC stand!
    I am obviously praying that WWFC retain Premier League status, but I have my doubts.
    Please Mr Morgan, put some real money into the club NOW and entice a top class manager who could bring the success we all crave.

What manager wants to join a club where transfer activity is so restained that it is highly unlikely that the manager’s perferred targets will ever be signed. What manager wants to join a club,where the owner might storm into the dressing room after a bad defeat.
    We had a manager who won us promotion,after so many others had failed.Not only that he kept us in the Prem for 3 seasons earning the club over £120 million in the process.He was Wolves through and through and a good ambassador nationally for our club.He was undeafeted in our last 4 away games,including games at Spurs and Arsenal.He was sacked on a split vote.Mr Morgan admit you got it wrong and reinstate Mick McCarthy,now.

I pushed hard for MM to be sacked, he was clearly clueless to stop our plummet, and I still dont want him back. What I didnt factor on was the complete ineptitude of the WWFC board. We were going down anyways under mccarthy, so if this complete farce of attempting a replacement does anything, then let it bring the fat controllers reign to an end to/. BRING ON THE REVOLUTION!!

    How did McCarthy achieve as much as he did under this pair of clowns???
    In the spirit of Humility, I now profer the following suggestions to S Morgan;
    1) Drive to Chez Mick toot bloody sweet, with a hefty bunch of flowers for Mrs M and an 18 month contract for Mick on improved terms, and give him your sincere assurances that he’ll be backed to the best of your abilities (say, half of whatever we receive for TV rights should we stay up; or a similar proportion of the parachute payments otherwise) in the Summer . Don’t leave said premises until you’ve got said contract signed.
    2)Thereafter, speed dial J Moxey, thank him for his services to the Club, but advise him that you’re ‘regretfully’ terminating his employment on the grounds of his recent poor advice and comical ineptitude in respect of you-know-what
    3)Get hold of Steve Coppell, respected former player, manager and Economics graduate, and offer him the vacant CEO’s post (best to first assure him that he’s the ONLY candidate under consideration!)
    4)Call a Press Conference, admit that you got it wrong over the last 8 months, and announce that the planned Restaurant/Bar facilities for the NOrth Bank will now be scrapped in favour of a Sports Facility available at cut-price rates to local schools and youth clubs
    5)Retire to your Cheshire mansion, and only take calls from Wolverhampton the next time the Transfer Window opens

    Last week Mr Moxey said the new manager will be working for us. We won’t be working for the manager.

    In other words the club is NOT working for the success of the football team. Or business comes first.

    This says it all. I’m not surprised that footballing people don’t like that approach and turn us down.

    Yes I’m fully behind a policy of not paying out players/managers etc above what we can afford. No argument. BUT the philosophy still has to be that everyone at the club puts football first and the manager is THE central figure for that.

    Mr Moxey and everyone else’s job is to help the manager in everyday they can. That is the only reason for them being there. That is why the fans pay to go to matches plus plus plus. We don’t not pay to line Mr Morgans pockets.

    Having been a regular since 1959 I’m depressed at where we’re now at. The enjoyment has been driven out of our club. I think I’ve now bought but 38 season tickets (a few years out when I played myself) but I think the end has arrived. Not helped by being allocated a seat right at the back of the stan culls for next season – with no discussion whatsoever

    What a disgrace looks like the club as projecting a stable image,well run etc,but its been a “LIE” the truth is coming out!!
    I new and said their had to be so much wrong at the club hence the reason for not sacking “MICK” earlier as all he was giving was defeat after defeat,the performances of players were in regression the fall was gradual but very obvious yet our men “MOXEY MORGAN” were sitting silently!!!

    I don’t always agree with what you say, but, I was pro MM and think you summed his strengths up perfectly. I said after the Villa & Spurs defeats (and I still think Karl Henry should hang his head in shame for not being on the pitch) that Albion would be his Waterloo if we lost. It would be interesting to see his reaction if he were asked to come back !
    However, I think that is most unlikely.
    Dave Jones is a realistic shout though. He was treated quite badly by Sir Jack. No financial backing when he finally got us up after all those years. I get the feeling he would be a popular choice.
    One question. Is he a ‘nearly’ man? Soton, Us and Cardiff.
    Another question, which all Wolves fans should know. Who is the only post war manager to return to Molineux ?

    What is the point in hiring a manager that nobody wants at the moment.
    Either swallow pride and get MM back, but not realistic,so i say give it to Terry Conner till the end of the season,the reason , he must have been doing something right to survive 4 managers since 1998 when he joinrd the club.He knows the players , he may be able to put some ideas forward that he may not have being a no 2 .Then the end of the season what ever league we are in ,and who knows it maybe the premier, the board can address the situation again and maybe appoint a manager that wants the job and who the fans would want,it would also stop all the speculation and turn downs from the so called managers who do not want the job, and then all focus can hopfully go on trying to stay in the premier league.

    Obviously the board did not have a plan ‘B’ when they axed McCarthy after the mauling from West Brom. Clearly then, it was a knee-jerk reaction and dispite talking to some worthy candidates, we obviously are not offering an attractive enough package, even after making 2nd attempts. Suggests to me then, that the board do not have the best interests of the club at heart because if they had, they would of given Curbsihley what he wanted because he may of been the only one with a fighting chance of keeping us up. So as it stands, we may as well have kept McCarthy because now we have less hope of staying up than we did with him as manager. The board have turned this great club into a laughing stock.

Unfortunately for us, he runs our club solely as a businessman because Wolves isn’t in his blood, he can’t relate to the fans, the history of the club or the total humiliation he is putting us supporters through right now.
    I hope this reminds you fellow supporters what a great man Sir Jack was, he put millions of pounds of his own money into the club, wrote off the debts owed to him and sold the club for a tenner to Morgan believing he was leaving the club to a man who would invest further and take the club onto the next level.

    I feel sorry for Sir Jack right now, he must be wondering what the hell he has done – wishing he could get his tenner back.

    bringbacksammychung – his stats arent as bad as people are making out, but the one thing that sticks out is the fact that he was struggling with the exact same group of players who are now flying with a different manager.

    Is he a bad manager? Of course he isnt, but personally I dont think he would be the right choice. and given the reaction most fans have made to him, I dont think it would be fair on him as he would be fighting an uphill battle straight away.

    Personally I wouldnt mind an up and coming manager that none of us have even heard of as long as hes got a good footballing brain and plays the right kind of football.

    Alternatively, I think Paul Ince could be a good shout. Most people wanted him before his spell at Blackburn, where he obviously struggled, but lets face it, Blackburn have been struggling for a while now, I think he would love the opportunity to manage Wolves, he would give our players a little bite to their play and being a relatively new manager he could possibly add a fresh approach. I also think the people writing him off because of a little blip at the start of his managerial career will be eating their words in 10 years time, as I genuinely beleive he has the know how and the enthusiasm to be a great manager, and for nostalgias sake, I would like to see that happen at Wolves.

    I dont know what it is about him, maybe its the fact that he has shown he has qualities as a manager in the lower leagues, or maybe I think he will have something to prove which cant be a bad thing, but I genuinely believe whoever gives Ince his next chance will be glad of their decision, and lets face it we are definateltly running out of candidates.

Don’t be surprised people if he comes up on the rails and wins this one. At least he has passion and if you do go down you would come back up. The state of Forest now shows what a good manager he really is. I am so supprised he hasn’t entered the race yet but there is time for the Billy Davis show to enter this soap opera of dingledale.

    May be this fiasco will teach Moxey and Morgan that whilst they run the club their no good at being a manager. For all Micks failings he kept us up whilst the Baggies and Blues went down. And I’d rather have been fighting for survival in the Premiership than the prospect of playing a Derby with the Saddlers in few years (heaven forbid).

    However what done is done and we need a manager asap but I hope Moxey/Morgan can keep their ego undercontrol next time (and have some lined up before they pull the trigger)

    In response to post 348 embarrassed.

    Cost of Wolves most expensive starting eleven:

    Hennessey: £000000.00.
    Ward: £100000.
    Johnson: £4 million.
    Bera: £2.5 million.
    Stearman: £???.
    Jarvis: £???.
    Henry: £100000.
    O’Hara: £3.5 million.
    Hunt: £3 million.
    Fletcher: £6.5 million.
    Doyle: £6.5 million.

    Total £26.2 million

    Average media income from league games of around £40 million a year x 3 years = £120 million.

    Profit £93.8 million!

    Steve Morgan’s investment £10.00p

    Let’s not get too carried away with how much Steve Morgan has spent of his own money!

    we might aswell of kept mick,i think the constraints that mick had to work within are proving to be unacceptable by any of these other managers,i have a feeling the 2 cheapscate scrooges, moxey & morgan want whoever takes over to keep this same backroom staff we’ve had at the club for far too long already.if the choice was mine i would of got rid of the coaching staff and replaced with someone a bit more clued up like ray wilkins long ago.it doesn’t take a genius to see when you look at our play all negative backwards and sideways and the set pieces & free kicks are a joke,so predictable with no invention this won’t change with connor in charge as he is the main problem,no idea.i still think we have more than enough within the current playing staff to survive all they need is a few fresh ideas and a different pair of eyes.maybe hammill to get a game as i still think he is good enough to trouble prem defences with his pace and trickery(might not be a 90 min player at present but ideal to come on as an impact player)mm didn’t give him a fair crack.IF WE LEAVE THE CURRENT CLOWN IN CHARGE WE WILL GO DOWN!SO GET IT SORTED M&M!KEVIN KEEGAN MAY BE THE WAY TO GO FOR A BIG IMPACT AND TO LIFT THE PLAYERS CONFIDENCE BUT PLEASE STOP TRYING TO DO IT ON THE CHEAP!IF YOU WANT PREM QUALITY YOU HAVE TO PAY FOR IT,GO AFTER A CHAMPIONSHIP MANAGER THATS WHERE WE WILL END UP.UTW

    poor brucey must be feeling like the last turkey at xmas. if i were him id tell them where to go after they offered the job to every available manager in the uk.

    if its true thay they have to pay mick £1m in compo its even more crazy that they got rid now. few bad results and a body blow against the local rivals i know is bad but come on the players have to take a bit of responsability not just the manager. fergie is right sacking managers to appease the fans is never a good thing

    Let’s get one thing straight, with MM and TC it would have been relegation. So we don’t want MM back.

    If Curbishley refused twice because he and Moxey do not share the same vision, what vision does Moxey have. after all i’m sure Curbishley wanted Premiorship football.

    Ray Wilkins has stated that he is interested, but i don’t se his name mentioned. Why?

    COME ON MOXEY AND MORGAN, TELL US WHAT YOUR VISION FOR OUR GREAT CLUB IS.

It is time for someone to come clean.

    Sue – If we get Bruce in then i’d give him a fair go. I actually dont have much problem with him.

    However I may choose not to renew because although I have had a season ticket for 16 years I am not happy with who is running the club and believe the investment we fans are putting into the club each year is being misguided in his judgment.

    I have no problem with the manager whoever it may be as such. The bad thing for me is the timing of Micks departure but that again is decision making abilities of those that run the club.

    I probably will end up renewing as lets face it as frustrated as we get sometimes it is our beloved club but certainly I am becoming increasingly frustrated with the way Moxey conducts himself in the transfer market (evident in this manager hunt too), the buildings going up instead of team building and all the other drivle that comes with it e.g. how amazing we are going to be afterwards……………

    Moxey once said we wont do an Albion………. I bet you he wishes we could now!

    417 BEOWULF And do none of these players get paid any wages ?? What about all the other players Mick has signed and not been up to the job.. Some real idiots on here spouting bring back Sir Jack and Morgan doesnt care about the club because he supports Liverpool and it wasnt this bad when we were in the 4th division.
    Sir Jack tried to sell the club for 4 years as he was no longer prepared to Bankroll the club and the 1 season he got us to the Premier he invested little on keeping us there. Morgan has given us 3 years of premiership football & the only fault I can see is that he kept faith in the man who got us up for too long when it was obvious we were not progressing.
    It wasnt better in the 4th Division, they were some dark days and only thanks to Steve Bull (can you imagine the uproar off the fans these days if we signed an Albion reserve !!) and Graham Turner who was booed quite often when he 1st came that we got back up the divisions..
    This managerial saga hasnt been handled well but comparing it to the Bhattis and the consecutive relagations is a joke !!

    Just a rumour but what ive heard this morning is that the new manager wld be paid huge bonus to keep us up, however if we get relegated then the new manager would have his salary reduced to be one of the lowest in the championship.

    Strange if true as surely we would be 1 of the teams fav to go straght back up.

    if it is true then maybe this is why Curbs turned us down as the long term vision thing.

    I’m with you on this one. First and foremost I’m a Wolves supporter and as it happens, a season ticket holder. The board have made a total hash of sacking Mccarthy and selecting a replacement, but it will not stop me supporting the Wolves.

    I may have my own preferences in terms of who should be the new manager, but whoever comes in should be given a fair chance.

    If people do not wish to renew their season ticket or not go to the Molineux in the future, then that’s their perogative. No need to make a song and dance about it.

    Funny how Mr Morgan is willing to sprout forth when it comes to his main concern Redrow….but he is unwilling to offer his vision for his part time interest….witness the results coverage for his full time occupation today.

    From a very long distance, it is extremely embarrasing to witness the shambles that is the WWFC leadership’s inabilty, or more likely unwilligness, to share their vision and purpose for an organisation that is held with such regard, but rapidly reducing, regard.

    “Since we made the difficult decision to part company with Mick, we have been through a diligent process of assessing potential candidates,” Wolves chairman Steve Morgan told the club’s official website.

    “Having spoken to a number of people we have drawn that process to a close and myself and the board are unanimous that Terry is the right man to lead the club for the remainder of the season.
