What a mess. The fans, players and club should've backed Mick. No one linked so far is an improvement, I hope the Boo Boys are happy now.

What is going on moxey wake up and offer ray wilkins a long term contract look what happend to chelsea when he left why cant morgan see sense wilkins all the way for me

Mick had not got a clue!!!!!

The fact of the matter is Mick needed to go and we needed to bring someone in asap but our board have no commitment to the club and are only in it for the money and now we have TC as our manager and i wouldnt be supprised if he gets it after the 13 games either absolute discrace we are down end of!

gibo your an person mate get jones back now as for curbishley he was great at charlton but when he had money at west ham he soon struggled add to that he's never managed outside london and when you all realise jez moxey is like a cancer at wolves and cant negotiate with players or managers

23 Feb 2012 22:23:23
I think it was on wm today they asked moxey to give a statement to keep us updated n he turned them down flat shows how much he cares about the people who put money towards his wages

23 Feb 2012 21:53:24
Anyone have any latest info? i wondered if there were anything happening as betting odds on bruce have dropped even further now to just 1.8 on betfair. its looking bad for us imho

If wolves get a result against Newcastle at the weekend, Terry Connor will get the job!

23 Feb 2012 21:26:13
Give it to Lee Clark for the 13 games and if he keeps us up then he stays on. Simples
He's keen and enthusiastic, talks well and the players would like the guy I'm sure
Give him a go

It amazes me that all the Wolves fans who were baying for McCarthy's blood now think that he did a good job. How fickle can they be, and maybe that's one of the reasons that we will never get a top class manager. Get a reality check, we are not a major Premiership force, and those who think that we would be an attractive proposition for a foreign billionaire, I would say one thing " Try living in the real world ".

roy hodgson said after the black country derby "people should be careful what they wish for" when asked about mick mccarthy possibly being sacked...

never a true word spoken roy! moxey and morgan should get on there knees and beg mick to come back!

To manage the mighty Wolves is an honour...to own the Wolves is beyond belief...I have some share certificates from the 60's that made fans feel more a part of the process...Morgan should do a private share issue whereby he relinquishes all that is Wolves but maintains the infastructure to meet his development needs..the only way forward for clubs with history although not TV attractive is a well run machine co-operative...John Lewis type Wolves?

Can I take this opportunity to say we all owe Magic Mick McCarthy a great big debt of gratitude. He was honourable to the last and its obvious now he had little or no support from the two morons running our beloved club. I for one hope Mick finds another club who appreciate him for what he is. A thoroughly decent man who's been s**t on from a great height. Good luck Mick!

Do you rember that bloke who used to walk around wolverhampton dressed as a cowboy waving a test card in your face? Well he as come in at 8/1

Legend, chased and shot me on more than one occasion.

He used to rant at the top of his voice " the bandits are coming " Perhaps he knew that Moxey and Morgan were gonna roll up in 15 years time.

The Polish tramp is in at 10's and he's been dead 3 years.

Fred the tramp is evens.

Fred the tramp has turned us down

Ezra the preacher new this was going to happen

Cowboy died years ago..Yes I remember him and he would have sat nicely between Moxey and Morgan if only to inflict his personality on them...he was a sandwich short by design but honest at heart...so a sandwich for Moxey and heart for Morgan

He's still knocking g about,he's a bible basher now,but he still spouts on about bonanza!

Based on the post above, he meets the criteria to at least be interviewed.

So is he alive or has he gone to that big prairie in the sky

You talking about texas pete lookalike?

I am as frustrated as anybody regarding non appointment thus far of a new Manager.

However it makes me cringe everytime someone says we should have kept Mick, or even worse lets get Mick back!!!

I have been calling for Micks head since we got beaten by Crystal Palace in the cup way way back as he clearly was tactically inept. Mick is now gone, which is great, but what worries me more is this...

Quite clearly Morgan trusts Moxey on the commercial side of the business and to balance his books. However its quite clear that when it comes to football neither Morgan or Moxey have a clue! hence the reason we had to put up with MM for so long. Also why get rid of the Manager after the transfer window and when you do why not have someone already lined up!!!!

I believe Morgan is realising these shortfallings hence the reason WE do need a director of football to oversee the FOOTBALL side of things. let Moxey worry about the price of the pies he obviously loves sooooo much.

We dont need Mick back we just need people who know about football. Fingers crossed that whatever happens in this sorry process is that we do.

Steve Bruce's record: 8 yrs in PL: 13th, 10th, 12th, 18th, (2nd Champ), 14th, 11th, 13th, 10th (Sund'land's highest for 55yrs). Thoughts? {Ed001's Note - I don't think your figures are correct, didn't Sunderland finish in 6th during Peter Reid's tenure?}

That was from tim nash off twitter so I have no idea :-/

23 Feb 2012 17:26:23
time for us fans to take action and protest inside and outside ground untill moxey is sacked and morgan looks for a new buyer this pair are a joke get rid now before they can do anymore damage to our once great football club

For gods sake get a grip

You get a grip

If Morgan pulled the plug we would be in a real world of s**t,but let's face facts Morgan and Moxey might well be excellent business men,but football men they ain't,I think they both realise this now and are a little embarrassed by this situation,that's where this director of football is coming into the picture,give them some credit,they ain't doing this on purpose they will do right by the club,in the long run.GBF

I've applied for the England manager's job.I know I won't get it, but it keeps the dole people off my back for another couple of weeks.My mate made the mistake of applying for the Wolves job.He's got to go for an interview on Monday.

Brilliant...made me chuckle.

I have supported this fantastic club for over 20 years, unfortunately as i am in the military i have been unable to attend as many matches as i would have liked to. That said i know the type of supporters we are, deep down all we want is commitment and some sense of direction in where our club is going. We need to see as much work on the pitch as off it, the writing was on the wall last summer with only 2 real signings. I would love for Big Mick to tell us what was really going on behind the scenes, whether he was stopped from making extra signings or not. I would love to see a surprise younger manager take over, complete with a new backroom staff as well. We need a completely fresh approach but more important than all of this is that no matter who the new manager is, the board must back him in everything he wants to do. That means no penny pinching from that waste of space Moxey,(
i dont hate many people but that man would try the patience of a saint, he incorporates everything that is wrong in football,namely greed).
Rant over! Whoever the new manager is (even clipboard) i wish them all the luck in the world and hope that they can keep us up, then hopefully rebuild in the summer. Lets get behind the team and encourage them, not berate them.

Up the Wolves

Give this man the job.... Respect to you. You do us proud

I think Wolves need to consider hiring a new P.R. person....

Breaking news Morgan has turned to his best mate Bob the builder can he save us yes he can. Tamworth wolf

23 Feb 2012 14:22:14
Rumour has it that Steve Morgan is trying to get in touch with the one and only Stan Cullis! Ouiji board booked for 7.30pm Thursday!!!!!

23 Feb 2012 13:54:22
Ed- Seriously can you see anyone taking the
job with Morgans "vision" of a director of
football. I can't see anyone worth their salt
wanting to work under financial restraints plus the the two fools at the helm and on top of that someone like Souness for example? The whole
saga beggars belief and now they are blatantly clutching at straws. For so many people not to
want a job in the prem at least for now surely
tells everyone that what they are offering is a
joke? {Ed001's Note - that is an issue, though plenty of coaches around the world work with that system in place. I don't see why it couldn't work at Wolves, it provides for long term stability.}

23 Feb 2012 13:17:50
Dave Jones into 14/1

So? Dougie Freedman has shortened to 33/1. Bruce still the clear favourite.

It's a very thin market. A £5 bet could probably shift it.

23 Feb 2012 12:34:05
There is nothing coming out of the club its all guess work here, looks like were in the hands of those running the BIG TOP!, this has turned into a farce im not even bothering to post till a manager has been appointed, cannot believe we didnt do this at the end of last season like i said, noone really thinks this is such a good job to take , you only have to look at the championship squad we have to realise that, hold tight all you fellow fans think its going to be a rough couple of years, think we will have to do a ground swap with the $hit as we wont be filling it in the championship!! SHREWD MOVE M+M, dont improve squad that nearly got relegated and build a 35k+ seater stadium.

Looks like Kevin Keegan will be the next manager to have money placed on him

You're right! He's floating 20/1 with some firms but was absolutely nowhere earlier in the week.

King Kev is the answer.

23 Feb 2012 12:06:46
If they only want a manager for 13 games. Get Ray Wilkins

23 Feb 2012 09:55:57
Just goes to show...
All these rumours amounted to nothing. Right out of the blue came Walter.
It's fantastic for creating a bit of banter and interest.
But for people like wolvesinsider who try to con people into to thinking they are in the know... Well they are just full of the brown sticky stuff. {Ed001's Note - hardly out of the blue, everyone has already said the club were looking for a director of football, just no one knew who it would be. Or do you think Smith is intended to be the long term manager?}

Wolvesinsider said Curbs would be announced tomorrow. If not, then he is officially a person for raising all our hopes. {Ed001's Note - or he has just got it wrong, info is never 100%, no matter who you get it from.}

Think ive lost the will to be a wolves fan, so embarrassed by the whole sacking of mick and the shambles that has followed. seems we cant give the job away.

Think Ive got it sorted anyway.
Get Peter Adams in from the other wolves (speedway) after match interviews should be a loff.
Get Moxey out he dont look a good advert for a fit and healthy footballl team.
Lets have Danielle Lloyd and Suzi Perry fronting the club.
Coaching by Frimpong and bassong, just cause I like the sound of it.

And if that dow work at least it will have been more fun than this

Wow , embarrassed by the sacking of mick after the kickin we took off the scum? What a fan.... I'll listen to everything u say from this moment on......mate ur a joke plastic fair weather fan. They wanna get the right man and it takes time. Noone is saying the England set up is a joke coz they ay replaced Capello .... Just impatient joeys moaning coz they don't have anyone to slag off in the pub. Get a grip n suck it in
