Danny Murphy sorry for Wolves slur

Wolves boss Mick McCarthy has revealed Danny Murphy has said 'sorry' ahead of Fulham's visit to Molineux.

Wolves boss Mick McCarthy has revealed Danny Murphy has said 'sorry' ahead of Fulham's visit to Molineux.

The Fulham captain endured a storm of abuse on his last visit to Wolves in April's 1-1 draw after his comments saying teams like McCarthy's side were "too pumped up".

Murphy's comments upset McCarthy and enraged the Molineux masses.

McCarthy believes Murphy's words fuelled the national slur against his team which saw them labelled as over-physical and turned fans against them.

Now, for the first time and ahead of tomorrow's game, McCarthy said the former Liverpool midfielder had apologised to him.

"I had an apology from Danny Murphy before the game last time," said the boss. "So there's no agenda there."
