Rated : Thanks for pointing that out, however doesn't stop myself and a growing number of others from feeling desperately disappointed by Fosun's obvious failure to run our club in the manner fans deserve. Whole generations of potential supporters are growing up never to set foot in Molineux, nobody under the age of fifty would have been at Wembley last time we won a Cup (Sherpa Van was a trophy) and you'd be well over seventy to even remember our last League title or FA Cup victory, Fosun promised to put us back on the map, older fans were banking on them, some of us just can't wait much longer, we needed to see at least some progress in the ten years they've been in ownership, nothing! No Stadium improvements, no fan facilities around Molinex, no players who really want to be here, no local lads to get behind, in fact no players from our own Country and most definitely no plan for the long term future. Every Fosun day is a wasted day, nothing to look forward to except the day they decide to go, that day can't come soon enough

Have to agree Ron, not good being a Wolves supporter these days. Greylegwolf I hope you are correct v Burnley being VP’s last chance, get the feeling we will draw and Jeff will then keep VP. Every other club would have already replaced him, anyone would think nobody wants to come. Surely even Jeff is starting to make enquiries ?

Ron I felt utterly despondent this morning and your post as summed things up for me.
The only thing I can look forward to is avoiding relegation, ok the carabao is still in progress, but in reality it's only a hope.
We need action now, Posc went from forest in 18mins after the game on sat, will we see Jeff have the same guts and preparation should we lose on Sunday?
VP is a decent, maybe too decent a guy, but it's not working for him and more importantly the club.
We need an overhaul, we need a club spirit back, fosun are letting our history, legacy and pride evaporate.

I think that's a good point Ron, younger fans won't have those experiences to reflect on, maybe lower league so the Premier League football will be the pinnacle of their time as a Wolves fan.

However, as you say us older ones have tasted success before the decline of the 80's and just would like to see some of that again rather than the continuous struggles against relegation every year. I thought Fosun were a dream come true when they bought the club but now wonder if all their big talk on arrival was just that, as beyond their first couple of years, the only true ambition now being Premier League survival, which is looking increasingly unlikely

The whole thing is a farce really and as you suggest us older ones may never see any level of success again but frankly under Fosun, neither will the younger ones. I came to the same conclusion as you a few years ago, that Fosun have zero intention of developing the club or backing it to do better, I have completely lost faith in them.

To be clear they need to sell up, otherwise what's the point of it all?

I totally agree Ron Moore. Very well put. This is no knee-jerk reaction but a ealistic view of the wasted years under Fosun. Especially hits us older supporters who endured the wilderness years and the Bhatti Brothers.

I think this is what the other clubs in the league and journalists want to divide the fan base and turn us on Fosun.
I agree (I've been an optimist and supporter of Fosun the past 3 years when questions have been asked) but the business this summer was awful. If we had signed the players we were linked with we would have had a great team: Pubill, Juanlu Sanchez, Abline and Casado.
I think we aimed too big and the market changed with all the big clubs spending big to keep pace with Liverpool and Man City for example.
The reality is we can't make the commercial revenue that Man City, Liverpool, Man Utd etc make. Even Tottenham, Newcastle and Villa have moved away from us.
The best thing we could do is invest in Molineux and sell land to a major investor similar to what Chelsea have done.
So a further wedge is inserted between the club and fans as prices have rose as we can't compete with West Ham, Everton, Newcastle, Villa, Brighton and Sunderland now with bigger stadiums. They have an extra 30% income from their stadiums. Its not massive but it all adds up to 5% more than Wolves.
The commercial revenue is crazy we make around £250m per year whilst Man Utd are making £800m+.
That's why even though they finished below us they can spend £250m on players.
I don't agree with the rules and feel maybe Fosun have grown tired of the rule changes since they have owned Wolves, FFP, VAR etc etc.
The Premier League stopped Wolves from getting CL football with that squad in 2019/2020 the game at Burnley will live long in my memory.
Nuno made his mistakes in the FA cup semi and the sale of Jota over Traore was a disaster.
I can't blame all these events on Fosun if any of them.
We have progressed a lot from the club that we were in 2015/2016 and the reaction of the fans is good as that shows where we want to take the club in the future.
We need to stick with the squad though as they want to play for Wolves and have shown fight over the past few weeks. I thought the first goal Saturday was pretty good to be fair. And we tried to get an equaliser which is what fans have harked on about the past few seasons going more aggressive.
The change of match times is diabolical and is further testimony to show we are just customers to the Premier League. Its too far much IMO.
As a club we need to stick together. Yes it is alarming that we are 5 points off safety but we also need to take the positives of the games against Bournemouth, Newcastle, Everton, Spurs and Brighton.
If we cut out our mistakes we will start moving up the league. We need the experienced players to take accountability for that.
But Molineux needs to be as hostile as it possibly can be on Sunday at 2pm for Burnley, the ref and the Burnley fans. It needs to feel like 8pm on a Friday night game.
Instead of negativity let's just stick with the teams for the full 90 minutes for a result.
Out of darkness cometh light.

I'm with you on a lot of what you say Madman, but with the recent games, we have seen a very negative trend in our play, players who have not been performing have still been picked consistently, this adds fuel to the fire for fans to be aggrieved, it always feel much worse when your staring up the league from the bottom, the 2 draws against Spurs and Brighton compounded the frustration and ramped up the anger, as these were 2 games we had control of and threw the wins away with bad game management, that is solely down to The management team, I like VP and I hope he turns things around, he's a gent that deserves time to get this right, we can relieve him of his duties and get someone else in, but that does not mean we automatically survive, its could give us more problems.
I remember when Ariola first went to Bournemouth, he had his ups and downs and the fans wanted him gone, he was backed by club, he lost a few players but he finally stamped his own mark on the team over time.
I do see both sides of coin in all of this and yes, results have been poor, in many other clubs, VP would have been sacked, but I do think we owe him some fat, he came to us when no other coach would, and kept us up by a good margin, I'm hoping that the tide will turn, Defensively we have improved a lot from the start of season, now we need to look to change our forward and attacking areas to improve our goal scoring margins.
We have the players to compete, we just need that bit of desire to get on front foot more, release the shackles, as I think we are being over cautious.
I will be over in UK for the Burnley and Chelsea cup game, hoping we get some results and we can get some point on table.
I still have some hope the season will turn, said it before and Il take a punt again that we do, but we have a big job ahead, 3 points Sunday would be a good start.
