I think we should sack Solbakken as manager and then re-hire him as a scout. In my opinion the players he's brought in have been top notch, but the football he's trying to play is just awful to be honest. He said at the start of his 'reign' as manager we should look to barcalona for inspiration, but to be honest we're closer to be played off the park by Luton Town. I would see myself as quite a positive supporter (especially compared with some of the moaners around me in the Steve Bull). I've backed Solbakken up to now, but yesterday completely demonstrated that his way is not the way for the championship and he's got no plan B. here's a list of managers I'd fancy at the wolves:

Ray Wilkins, Steve Coterill, Alan Curbishley, Roberto Di Matteo (I think he would be unlikely to come to wolves), Mark Hughes or Paul Ince.

Thoughts?

Hertfordshire Wolf {Ed011's Note - Not too sure he'd be happy about the demotion to be honest.



I'd take any of them managers, glad more people are takin their Stale tinted specs off! U could give this guy 10 years and you'd still be in this division at best! Paul Tamworth



Dont forget to buy some pampers...wolves have been in a terrible state long before the end of last season.

Ray Wilkins - Stop pluggin at that one
Steve Coterill - Undecided
Alan Curbishley - Turned the job down (short memories)
Roberto Di Matteo - He will get a better offer
Mark Hughes - Has he ever had any success as a manager?!
Paul Ince - Hmmmm not rated

Doesnt leave you with a lot of options

Why dont we get Paul Tamworth in?



Go and poach gus poyet



Lmao I like that one DTM



I can't see SS going anywhere until at least end of the season.
His tactics aren't working but neither are the players performing. We need players in Jan but how much money will SS get?

Every club knows we have money to spend from the summer so any club we approach they are going to hold out for best price possible on there players. Moxey being has he is with transfer dealings, he will want players at his price nobody elses. It could be a long Jan a bit like the fletcher / Jarvis saga but with us trying to buy this time!!



Is that Bipolar Tamworth again. Changes his mind with every result.

When you have at least 9 members of your first team squad who don't cut the mustard and need moving on plus a further half dozen injured then it is difficult.

It takes time to change a squad and style of play.

I bet most of these people complaining made very little improvement in their jobs 6 months after they were hired.

But hey it seems the norm now as a Wolves fan to complain and criticise. I don't know where this sudden expectation has come from that we should instantly be performing at an exceedingly high level.



Stale is going nowhere,the investment is too great.Believe he has a gentlemens agreement with the board on the forthcoming transfer window and to a certain extent he will be well backed,but don't know the extent of the financial backing.



The demotion to scout was partially intended as a bit of 'tongue in cheek banter', but I think it would be a good move (for wolves). I think the analysis of those managers was slightly harsh. I'd definitely fancy Ray Wilkins or Steve Coterill. They both keep a cool head and are honest guys, which in my opinion is exactly what wolves need at the moment. Up The Wolves!

Paul Tamworth for manager.



Thanks for the Managers job offer! But I have to decline!;( with so many Happy Clappers supporting us it would be a challenge! I could get us relegated to the Conferance League and they'd still be sayin! Give him time, let him bring his own players in, he's tryin something differant, he's building a team to compete in the Premiership! Be an easy job but I'd want success to quickly for u Happy Clappers! Paul Tamworth



Nothing wrong with going along to support your team and manager rather than spending hundreds of pounds (and most of your Saturday) a year to go and moan every week. I don't think some people quite realise that if we really got behind the players, they'd find the confidence to pull off moments of magic (maybe even Wardinho). I have a right moaner sitting behind me who has no clue what he's talking. Steve Bull upper, J4, Row H, YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE!



Paolo De Canio is the man for the job in my opinion. May be a bit of a loose cannon but certainly getting results at Swindon. Has more than enough passion and hates losing - got to be worth a chance at a bigger club.



At the start of the season people after people commented on this rumours page that this season will be a stepping stone for next season, that SS needs time to bring his own players in and change our style of play. 5 months later people are calling for him to be sacked?

If we are in this position this time next year i will be 1st to say it hasn't worked time to move on but it is too early for that.

His signings have been pretty good and injuries have been unlucky, admittedly we look predictable tactically and some performances have been dreadful but it is way too early especially when the inherited the bulk of this squad.

We won't go down this season n unless we sign some quality we won't go up but at the start of season there loads of us commenting on here that we thought the same!

The Paul Tamworth Bipolar poster! I couldn't agree more! Paul has more faces than a town hall clock!

I get so disillusioned with our fans on this site sometimes (not all I must say, just the moaning few!)

Some Wolves fans would moan and kick off with the Barcelona team in Wolves shirts! "He doesn't tackle enough!" "He tackles too much!" "That Messi lad has no right foot and he's too greedy!" "They are all overpaid!" "They don't love the club enough!" "He's too lazy!" "He's a show pony!" Moan moan bloody moan!! That Barcelona team took years to create and it didn't happen overnight! Ferguson took years to sort out Man Utd!

We aren't Barcelona, Man Utd, Man City, Chelsea, Milan etc etc! We are not even Fulham, Wigan, QPR, Norwich! We are Wolves and we are where we are! Accept that the place needed a complete overhaul and that its going to take time! Granted we would all love to be blazing a trail and nobody was happy with the result yesterday! But you unhappy, non clapping brigade were clapping a week ago when we were winning games and you were happy! We all saw the posts!

For God sake get behind the team! I'd be happy with top half this season and kick on next! And for those that want to add some drama saying we will be lucky to stay up and make things out to terrible at Compton behave yourselves! No way on this earth will we get relegated this season!



No doubt about it Paul Tamworthless, ..you would get wolves relegated with your knowledge of the game, ..and your people skills leave a lot to be desired! ..Think i'll rename you the Wolves Troll! Stalking real fans under the molineux underpass, moaning and groaning



Oy I sit there!



I praise when they earn it and moan when they deserve it! I support Wolves whoever the owner or manager maybe! When I'm at a game I'm very vocal supporting our team, but after i say it as I see it! And now I will tell u that with Stale in charge were goin nowhere! Not up nor down! We need a manager who knows the English leagues and an owner who has ambition for our club! If that makes me two faced then so be it! I spend a lot of money following our club and I want success, and IMO we will not achieve this with this manager or owner! Paul Tamworth



The only thing is di canio would come to wolves and be crap..it's the wolverhampton effect..i think our chairman and board are to formal and friendly...when they should be like do the job...or i'lll put the fear of god into you...



Real fans!! Your a joker pal, I'm not gettin into a debate about who's the best fan and who's been to the most games home and away! I enjoy the banter on this board and I know I'm not the most diplomatic but I'm 100% Wolves so Don't ever question my loyalty or commitment to our club! As I've said before its easy to be disrespectful and get personal on these sites when your faceless and nameless. Paul Tamworth



I agree now with the fact Ståle needs a bit more time. But, that being said you must be able to see where I'm coming from. Going on a five hour round trip too see Wolves lose to the bottom club, with a quite frankly awful performance is really not what we want and not where this club should be going. That being said, we seem to all (me included) have very short memories. It was just a few days ago a large majority of the away fans at Blackpool were shouting Solbakken's name. I just don't think everything is really as it should be. I mean at the start of the season I would have been completely happy with finishing mid-table ish and having a bit of a regroup this season. But, if that we're to happen, I expected to see us playing much more entertaining football. I mean Wolves are hardly fulfilling expectations, yet they still all get Christmas Day off. Apparently Ståle went back to Norway for Xmas briefly + you should have seen the size of David Davis' Christmas dinner!Ok, rant over. I'll go back to being the so called 'happy clapper' who just wants to support his team through this difficult period :)
Up the Wolves!

Hertfordshire Wolf



Think whatever happens against ipswich will determine Stales future. A win and he'll be here for the whole of the season, ...a loss and i can see him gone with a new manager in to take advantage of the january window.



Tamworth - you know my name!



No I dont? But send it and il watch for your quality posts as long as u remember to put your name after them! Doh!! Paul Tamworth



Tamworth - you don't remember me? ...I'm hurt! ..,did that night mean nothing to you?



If Mark Hughes ever became manager i'd quit supporting my be loved Wolves.....

Yesterday was probably the worst football match I've ever seen. I'm normally on here trying to look at the positives but seriously it was dreadful.

I've noticed it over the weeks but not to the same extreme as yesterday but we have too many one footed players which makes us too predictable the main culprits are Sako and pennant. When Sako goes up the left the defender knows he's going to go for the line and boot going to cut in the same for pennant but he doesn't even try going down the right guessing he's been told not too. Then in the second half where they swooped they both just kept cutting inside at one point pennant ran all the way back to the right from the left lol. But I was disappointed with the fans that booed pennant when he came off he wasn't our worst player by a long way.

We have no creativity, so no way to get chances. I say stick sigurdarson as forward and make him run through the defence and put the ball over the top he's got to be the fastest player in the league.

Most entertaining bit of the game was when a couple of fans behind me in the billy wright decided to get into a fight they got escorted out but most excitement in the billy wright ever. But it's still a disgrace that they were fighting they should get banned.

Even though Stale probably deserves to go I'm still behind him, give him money in January let him get a few more quality players and see what he can do in the end of the season. If he does go I say no question go get ray Wilkins.

Positives are o'hara and others are on their way back so let's get behind the lads and get out season started in 2013.

TWOLF



There were a couple of fans in the Jack Harris that almost came to blows in the second half. It's no good fighting each other.



End of February is when I'll make my mind up. If we're not playing better football by then, he's got to go in my opinion. We were playing better football under McCarthy to be quite honest. Until then, get behind the lads and the manager!

Vaz Te will join Wolves on loan (HAPPY HAMMER)



Thought he was out for quite a while after surgery to his shoulder?



Lmao stales Barmy army! then stale out. It's amazing how fast fans can turn. To be honest the signings he's made don't look bad. Really think it would be a bad idea to sack him now because fans are impaintent. He's had 1 transfer window to bring in his own players and get rid of how many. We had one of the biggest squads going. If we are in a rubbish position this time next season u have every right to say out but after 5 months. We all no mick would get us up, even stale knows that. But why go up fighting to stay up every season, why not go up playing good football and a system so we can actually do sommet when we get up. Look at swansea how long did it take rodgers, reading sacked him becuase they had no patience, look at both teams now.Have ambition and have patience DTM



DTM your right we have a large squad, people keep on about givin him time and more transfer windows to get his players in, who can play his style? But in the mean time wouldn't a good manager of changed his tactics to play to the strengths of the players he's got, so we kept gettin points and kept in the play off positions? A good manager would! Stale and his assistants haven't got a clue!! Get rid now!! Paul Tamworth



Totally agree dtm



Paul tamworth tut tut tut, that's all I can do. We've finally gt a manger who wants to play good football and u want to get rid. Keep giving him transfer windows? hes had one!We've had one most unluckiest seasons ever with injuries and there all virtually his signings. We've gt players coming bk in jan and he will sign a few aswell. Sacking now would be a mistake. This time next year yh if we aren't getting anywhere. Can I ask you something I use Brendan Rodgers as example.. but would you like a manger like that at wolves? If so...how long do u think it would take him? Each to there own mate but to be honest think ur daft and impatient. DTM



I could be patient if I saw any improvement in 24 games but there isn't any! U use injuries as an excuse but you've also stated we've got a big squad! A poor workman blames his tools and Stale is certainly a poor manager with no tactical knowledge! Forget rebuilding and gettin to play good football lets just get back in the Prem ASAP and this time I hope Morgan has learnt and will buy quality to keep us there! By the way the players don't even look like their playin for him! U keep watchin through your Happy Clapper specs!! Paul Tamworth



Ok Paul Tamworth. Lets agree to disagree. U want instant success over night. 24 games ay a lot, to change the whole style of play and get rid of the waste with one transfer window. Happy clapper? Lmao it's called being optimistic and having faith don't cry cus were not goin to the prem this season. And hold on it took McCarthy 3 seasons to get us in prem, his second season we didn't even make play offs. So to answer you time is needed. From the DTM Aka happy clapper :)



What did I say? ...Paul tamworth throws the 'happy clapper' insult at anyone who dares to have a different opinion to his!! Bet your one of those people who raises their voices, shouts and throws their toys out of the Pram when losing an argument. Can't be bothered to be angry with you, I just pity you and am disappointed in your short-sighted mindset! "There there Paul Tamworth (pat on the head), no need to scream and cry" ...bless his little cotton socks. Awwwww

{Ed011's Note - On a different note, but actually the same note the thread started on, I reckon Vaz Te would be a great addition, bring him in!



Re read your post.Lets get to prem ASAP? And do Wat? Come bk down. By the way tired of wasting my time arguing. More bothered about signings we r going to make,looking forward to hearing some rumours for a change!! DTM



Why change to a style that your players aren't capable of playin? And doin it week after week? That's not good management! This is a poor league and 3 average teams will get promoted! We should be one of them!! With the right tactics we would of been in the top six now but no! Stale knows best!!! He makes McCarthy look like Sir Alex Ferguson!! Paul Tamworth.



Paul T. I can understand your frustration but I tend to agree with DTM we must give him time Mad Mick had 5 1/2 years and S.S. is having to clear his mess up so hang in there Mate. P.J. Oh keep wearing your Heart on your sleeve your a true Wolf. P.J.



We will come back down if we don't keep investing in Quality when we go up! Do nothin and u get relegated as we've shown! What a terrible insult bein called a Happy Clapper!! If I was allowed id insult u properly! Paul Tamworth



Why change style of play? Change the style because the style doesn't work that's y we are in championship. And the players aren't capable that's y u have transfer windows.. We've gave him one. Does that answer your questions Paul? DTM ( last point ) more rumours....



Understand what you mean PJ but I would expect to see some improvements by now then I would be prepared to wait, but there aren't any and I don't think the players are playin for him. Hope we get quality in as goin Palace and sheff weds don't want to travel and watch the pile of sh#t they dished up yesterday!! Paul Tamworth



We were relegated as we didn't have enough investment in Quality from the board, and the management were quite content with puttin square pegs in round holes! Paul Tamworth



27 Dec 2012 07:18:55
well what can i say , i did back stale at the start now im having second thoughts ,after yesterday alot of unrest at the club from the top to bottom ,iff they do sack stale theres only one man for the job, who i want in before they got stale ,is ray wilkins ? jason wolves for life



Henning Berg anyone?



Come on Morgan Wakey Wakey!! Put sky sports news on, see 2 managers been sacked for under achieving!! Then give Stale and his muppets a call and sack the lot!! We're still only 6 points off play offs lets get it sorted! And to those who yawn at my posts don't read them! Simple! Happy Clappers!! Paul Tamworth



Get rid of this bloody person nowwwwwwww



I agree the manager has to take the majority of the blame. though i think the players have to look at themselves. Personally i think Stale should be Given till December 2013, let him get players he wants, cast off the un needed then make a decision.... Thats just my 2 cents so please don't bite my head off. Its a fraustrating time for all concerned :-)



I agree mate Paul tamworth out now!! DTM



I think its the fans that are the problem, too soon to start booing and getting on everyones backs when its not all going to plan, yes they pay good money, but patience is a virtue after all and booing is not a good motivator. You don't hear booing at the Britannia Stadium or the DW for that matter and Wigan always survive and Stoke are European contenders. As a gold and black die hard can I also point out where our nearest and most hated local rivals are now under Steve Clark and they suffered many years of yo yoing between the leagues to achieve that. Rome was not built in a day and I think you have gotta live in the real world and accept that with patience comes stability and success. Can you imagine if Man Utd had sacked Alex Ferguson for not winning a title in his first season in charge? Be realistic and get behind the boys or boo somewhere else please. (A totally fed up Wolf)



To the totally fed up wolf. Before Stoke had their success and in the Moxey era, they were invading the pitch every home game because of the shambles that was Stoke under Moxey. The rest is history. Get Moxey Out.



No problem with the fans,weve just woken up.we boo because we have had enough of morgan,moxey and a bunch of players not good enough for league 2.we pay good money to watch a team we love and have every rite to show how we feel.you should go and watch some one whos fans dont care.
