stop the panic! deans in charge! he will not buy players for the sake of buying! he knows what he is doing, that's why he has got the job and not us!!!



Can I ask what the FAs reason was for not having Billy wright on the crest. Watching the tweets from official wolves it says there's a reason, does any one know what it was?



Yep they have Never liked the Wolves, End of. WFE

if we've got 48 pros and after having three seasons in the premier league a top status academy and having recieved the parachute payment that comes with relegation how on earth can we not find a team to be in the top six ! super mick was allowed to recruit quantity not quality that is obvious where were mr moxey and mr morgan when mick needed reigning in poor deano has got to sort it out so straight away he will be handicapped mccarthy spent loads on mediocrity

For how long?



Edwards? Meh. Ian C

This is not a rumour, just a thought. DS will obviously know Giggs through Wales etc. I would love Wolves to show ambition and get the best British player in the last 20 years (apart from Gazza) on a 12 month deal with the promise of being involved in a coaching role once the legs give up. His injury record alone shows he knows how to look after himself and he could pass this on.
Obvious stumbling blocks would be Wolves having no ambition, Giggs being a 1 man club, wages and possibly M.Utd offering something after he hangs up the boots. Oh well i can dream.



Not a chance he will straight into
Coaching at utd along with scholes

I've heard enough. If we can't sign Giggsy then the club is really down the tubes.



Of course "Disagree". I was being ironic.



Heard enough, as ambitious as the owners then. I'm not on about the giggs of 10 years ago am i. I'm wanting somebody who's experience would be massive in all areas of the club and who will be looking to do something else in the next year or 2.
Go and have a look at some nobody from league 1 then who looks good on fifa 13.

What we need to face up to as fans is that we are no better than a mid table championship outfit, with average players who are underperforming, a board who lack direction and football knowledge, and without the courage to do anything about it, and prepared to finish mid table. We have an ambitious manager with a lot yet to prove. The truth is should he ever get us to the premier he will not be given any more backing than any of his predecessors, The plan is no additional signings, see how we do and replace overpaid players with low cost options. but not this January, We have settled for safety from relegation, nothing greater than that. Please Mr Morgan prove me wrong. I am a disappointed season ticket holder and can see a bleak future as long as Jez Moxey remains.



I agree with most of what you say, but ds will not get us promoted, regardless of funds, and its not just Moxey at fault, it's Morgan too, Liverpool obviously knew what a joke he was when he tried to buy them, the whole damn lot of em are going to rip the life out of this club as it slides towards league one...

Just a thought but we are so used to watching the team playing poorly, because they didn't get to grips with Solbakkens style. What if Deano gets the players we already have playing winning footy again. Would it be so important that we don't get some major signings in January? He could then build in the summer if the board back him and give it the promotion push next season. I don't want to sound defeatist, but I think we will be hard pressed to make the play offs now.

Challenger.



Your right in a way, but surely it would be better to get the players now. That way they can settle. Then we have an even better chance next season.

Allot of people think January is a rubbish window but that's only the people that loose out on players, and that's only because they won't spend.

We could get a big proportion of the players we don't want shipped out but Moxey wants top dollar for them. Something tells me he's not as cleaver as he thinks.

For example. Lets say Stearman is on 5K a week that's roughly 260K per year I don't know how long is left on his contract. So lets say 2 years so that's 520K plus this years 260K = 780K. So why not sell him for closer to 1M? atleast he's off the books then. I don't just mean Stearman either I'm on about all of the dead wood.

At the end of the day it don't matter that we have not made any money on them as long as we don't loose too much money. In my eyes that's the quickest way to get rid so we can start rebuilding. But instead Moxey just wants to keep playing the long game, hoping that someone will pay top dollar. Just so he can get his bonus at the end of the season.

Balls to the play-offs. I'll be happy if avoid relegation.

A clear-out is needed in the summer. None of this 'we've got X amount of players from the Championship winning year'. That was 4 years ago and that group of players have shown they've got progressively worse since then.

Plus, without Kightly or Jarvis and - the biggest loss of all - Jody Craddock, we're nothing like the Championship winners of 2009.



I would reckon that the likes of stearman and zubar and hunt, they are probably on 10-12k a week, plus the elokobis and jonnsons are maybe on 8k a week. that's a lot of wages to be saved to be reinvested in quality not quantity

So we've let Griffiths go, when we need a goalscorer, and we are keeping hold of Adam Hammill when we've already got superior quality on the wings..And he attacks paramedics...A classy act, that one

What is going on with us?



Both of them are not good examples or proffesionals but I'd take AH over LG. Just because he scores in the mickey mouse league don't mean he can do it here. Plus AH puts in the effort and don't go to sleep in the dressing room. From what I have seen and read about LG he seems to be a right four letter word begging with C. But do not get me wrong what AH did is unacceptable and I don't condone it at all. But he is the better player.

TDW



LG still remains unproven in this league and we are definitely missing firepower..I personally would have given him a punt, and if it didn't work, then ship him back to Edinburgh

Gary Hooper is also unproven at this level, is knocking them in for fun for Celtic and has Premiership clubs sniffing after him, so I don't think blaming the poor quality of the SPL is especially valid.I know Griffiths has had issues in the past, but we currently need strikers that know how to score, and it doesn't look like M&M are going to shell out for anyone, so giving untested ones away that are already on our books smells a bit of the ridiculous if you ask me



Hooper plsys for Celtic the only team good enough to actually give any of the championship or premiership teams a game. Pluss he is in the champions league with them. You can't really compare

why do we need to spend millions on players if the right player is available for 1mil so be it as throwing money at it hasn't done us that good so far has it, it's all about the right blend of players and they want to work for you and p, ay for your club I mean come on people lets be honest Swansea haven't got world beaters but play as a team and all work for each other so I for 1 will be willing to give Deano a chance as we all no some players need to go but some might perform better with other players round them. john

Why is wolves buying strikers if they are leaking goals like a sinking ship. Why not get a good patner for johnson and a very good left back?

We are being linked with David cottrill now! What are we doing?? We don't need anymore wingers
