Wolves in plea for fan unity

Wolves today made an impassioned plea for fans to stick with the team to help make the difference and end their Molineux misery tomorrow.

Supporters have grown increasingly restless after five matches without a win as Stale Solbakken's side kick off a run of three home games in four with the visit of Brighton.

Two points from 15 havedropped Wolves from third to 13th in the Championship and fans have become increasingly frustrated with the team's inability to create chances and score goals as players juggle with the more patient style of play.

Wolves have faded alarmingly in their last two home games to draw against Bolton and Charlton – just two of the five matches in which they have conceded leadsto make it 12 points wasted from winning positions this season.

But the players believe in Solbakken's gameplan, and, with the Molineux gate expected to be boosted by a 'Wolves 4 Family' £40 ticket promotion tomorrow, they reckon the supporters' backing could tip the scales in their favour.

Midfielder Dave Edwards said: "It's key for us that the fans get behind us tomorrow – as they always do – because that will make the difference and we can keep the tempo going.

"In the last two home games, we've faded out in the second half and that can't be the case tomorrow.

"We've got to be at it for 90 minutes and hopefully we can give the fans something to shout about because they haven't really had much to cheer over the last five games.

"Maybe at home we'll more free-flowing and hopefully the fans can get behind us and push us forwards that bit more and give us that extra yard."

Wolves welcome Nottingham Forest and Millwall to Molineux after next Saturday's trip to Watford and Edwards admitted victory is crucial tomorrow.

"Hopefully the fans can keep us going forwards because it's vital we get a win," he said.
