Terry Connor has been given the manager's job until the end of the season. Madness if you ask me.
We've appointed the man who was assistant to who we sacked for not doing well enough. Granted, Terry has been here for a long time but this was the time to freshen things up.

However, now we now who the manager is we have to get behind him and give him our support. The next month or so is going to be vital and we HAVE to pick up points. Games against Blackburn, Bolton, Fulham are chances to pick up some points and get ourselves out of this mess.
It will be quite interesting to see what line up, and formation he goes with.Will he go 442, or 451? I suppose we don't really know who he rates higher. A positive was that it was his decision to play three forwards at half time against QPR, maybe he likes to go all out attacking? We'll just have to wait and see.
I can't imagine Adam Hammill is happy anyway.
Should have stuck with MM... the board must have known that we were going to be in this position if we weren't offering deals to bring the big names to the clubs management team...
ReplyDeletewhat a bloke he will be though if he keeps us in the Prem!!
Good luck to him, i say.
YEAH YEAH... hindishgt is a wonderful thing... I dont think there's a fan out there who'd disagree but whats the point of this statement? The one "good" thing to come out of this is its shown STEVE MORGAN and JEZ MOXEY to be COMPLETE WANKERS - I have zero faith in them and the future of WWFC suddenly looks very bleak.
ReplyDeleteWhy is Connor worse than MM. We have to wait and see. Stranger things have happened. Reading's McDermott started as an assistent also. It is his chance to begin a career as manager if he does well. Good luck to Wolves and Connor!! I hope he has the courage to do it his way!
ReplyDeleteWhat other choice was there? No one else wanted the job on the terms and the conditions laid down by the club. Alan Curbishley may well have taken the job BUT he disagreed with the Wolves' owner's ideas of how the club should proceed, so said 'no thanks' - twice!
ReplyDeleteA statement from Wolves pre-interviews said “The person who joins us has got to understand what club he is joining. He needs to understand us. We are not the sort of club who has a manager we are working for. The manager has to work for the football club, has to understand how the club works.
“We are a very good club, financially in a good place, stable, got a good stadium, a brilliant training ground. But this is not a situation where a manager will come in with an open chequebook and be able to buy his way to success. He will have to do it the way this club is run, sensibly, prudently, and we understand that is a difficult ask to find that character.”
And all that describes why a new manager has not been installed at Molineux, only Terry Connor upgraded to see the season out.
No manager in these current times can be expected to keep a PL team up if funds of adequate means are not readily available. The point has been amptly made by Manchester United who badly need transfer capital to bring in higher quality players. I am not suggesting Wolves are on their level BUT when better quality players are needed, the money should be available for both transfer fees and salaries and we all know how tight Wolves are on both scores.
The ridiculous merry-go-round of chasing candidates to fill the position following Mick McCarthy's dismissal has brought a wave of laughter from all quarters, not least from Wolves fans whose own laughter has turned to absolute despair that not one single candidate would accept the job.
So the Wolves board have been reduced to the only option left to them, appoint Terry Connor until the end of the season but then presuming he is not given the job full time, the saga of finding a new manager will once again begin but this time almost certainly with a twist. No new players will be brought in or players sold until the new man is at his desk meaning a delay yet again.
Why is it Wolves can never do anything quickly?
Its the cheap option. Out of the frying pan into the fire...
