As others have said I am all for Arsenal losing out on title and Spurs being relegated. Awful season for us but should Arteta and Arsenal miss out and Spurs go, that would be excellent.

Don’t particularly like Forest either though. Will we win another game this season?
On this, what is better, for us to lose all remaining games and Rob to leave in the summer, or win a few and Rob stays?

We may not win any more games.
But, if you want Spurs to go down, maybe we have to beat them to help.
I can't see, and hope RE goes, if we don't win any more games.
And he won't have any argument with his stats. It's just what Fosun see it as.

We are in a bad position to be considered for promotion, and Spurs going down will make it even more difficult.

Leeds winning at Man United means that if Forest beat Burnley this weekend and West Ham beat Palace, relegation will be confirmed this weekend.

Well, if hats gonna happen, if we're to win one more game, please let it be over Spurs and drag them down with us. Goodwhile.
The thought that a Big 6 team falling as well would, in some strange strange way, give me some satisfaction.
If the Goners miss out by the odd point too, it'd go some way to seeing that our season wasn't wasted.

The only positive for next season is not having to suffer the ineptitude of VAR.

But, in what is a terrible season, seeing Arsenal lose out and Spurs relegated would soften the blow.

Thing is, tho, Goodwhile, I've said before on here, that I've watched Championship, and under some circumstances I've instinctively wanted VAR to review a decision, but ultimately it's a better watch, fairer acceptance of decisions, and gives us that valuable, old, enjoyable aspect of the game, a debate afterwards.

It's ok sacking manager after manager but that costs money often several millions which is what likely led towards our £15million net loss.
This season is over. Edwards got Boro into top two. We need to give him a few matches in Championship.
I will 100% blame the players; their attitude stinks, including golden boy J. Gomes.

13 Apr 2026 17:11:45
So, Rated, you are prepared for him to be given millions of pounds to sign players. Well, let's hope that they are better than the two signings that he made in the winter window. If not, it will be a bigger cost than sacking him.

Wolves will not be giving millions of pounds to spend on transfers.
It is most likely we will be facing a points deduction.

How do you know that? Have you got a crystal ball or definite inside knowledge.

You're rubbing your hands, QS, you've been waiting for a season like this for a few years so you can say to us "I told you so."
Do I think Rob Edwards was the right appointment? No, but he has experience in the Championship and got Boro into the top two.

14 Apr 2026 06:21:16
We can speculate as much as we like. It is only when we get into the transfer season, we will know how Fosun will play it.
Hopefully with positive intent!

14 Apr 2026 12:04:49
I don't have a crystal ball, but if you can't see what's coming and what has happened to other clubs, then you are not looking deep enough.
To suggest I am rubbing my hands is nonsensical. I am frustrated and angry at the way it has all dissipated.

Just seen the latest odds on RE getting the sack, 66/1 with Bet Victor, if anyone fancies a punt!! Looks like Arne Slot is favourite for the chop, would like to know the odds on Fosun selling Wolves any time soon. Answers on a postcard.

I think most of us could see how this season would end given our downward spiral over the last few years and we all know why.
However, hands up those who expected Spurs to be increasingly likely to join us? Cue media meltdown if it happens.

The table does seem to confirm that the teams that are run by egotistical people tend to suffer. Us, Spurs, West Ham and Forest all being near the lower reaches of the table proves this.

I did watch some of the Spurs' game; for them to be in danger of relegation is ridiculous. They do like to dive and cheat, though. I think most teams do these days.

13 Apr 2026 09:59:11
At the start of the season, I would never have believed that Spurs might go down. Good's point above, that clubs run by egotistical people tend to suffer, equally applies to countries! This seems to be the year that chickens come home to roost.

A supposed Big Six club in recent years has always been a bad season away. You only have to look at the middle of the league to see how competitive the middle of the league has become.

I thought we'd finish 14th this season with a couple of experienced last-minute additions in August.

Once that didn't happen, we were in trouble. Then, losing to the 3 promoted teams early on, those 9 points lost put the nails in the coffin.

13 Apr 2026 10:13:33
With the record of Rob Edwards in the Premier League, can anyone out there believe that if he was at any other club he would still be in a job? I can't believe he's still there. Unbelievable.

13 Apr 2026 10:46:58
Edwards should not have been appointed. However, a lot of the signings from the previous two windows weren't good enough, and he isn't responsible for that. Also, keep in mind, supposedly the club tried to get GoN first, and there weren't many other takers.

If it's true, Robbie Keane and Allardyce were interested, they would have been better options, albeit for different reasons. Even if Big Sam was a short-term thing until the summer.



Right now, we have a manager who wants to be here, but shouldn't be, who is supposed to be long-term. Getting rid before the summer raises even more questions about the running of the club.

The failures are all down to one thing: recruitment, top to bottom. Too many square pegs in round holes, and people with little to no football experience in the key roles, including the manager.

The appointment of Edwards, who has no track record, underlines Fosun's lack of ambition. Once they had the Brand, and realized what it would cost to compete, they cooled on football. Why would they sack Edwards? He fits the requirement. I wish him well, of course, but managing Wolves with Fosun as owners is a poison chalice.

1


13 Apr 2026 13:37:05
Why would they sack him? Well, if it continues the way it is, at less than a point a game, we will soon be Conference League. Do you want that?

13 Apr 2026 16:14:10
I partially agree, Wimborne, but I think this is the result of a few things collectively. The PSR rules are a problem whether we like it or not. The club has to operate in them.

However, revenue hasn't grown, the ground investment hasn't been there, and the recruitment has been a shambles. If you don't have the income, you can't attract the best players and pay the wages, and you can't easily correct expensive mistakes from the transfer market. There have been a lot of those.



If you then back that up with no proper sporting director, no commercial directors, poor management of the first team and academies, and you find most signings from January 2025 to September 2025 were shown the door in the last window, you can see the problems.

Any pull Fosun want from Wolves is not as strong in The Championship, and the club is worth a fraction of what it was even 12 months ago. It makes it all quite baffling, as there seems to be no gain at the moment for any party.

B Hill wolf, my comment was not about what I want. I want him to succeed, but it is obvious from the stats that he is not a successful Prem manager. His appointment underlined Fosun's lack of Prem ambition. He has, however, shown ability in the Championship, which I believe could be behind Fosun's thinking.

However, I question Fosun's ambition, and suggest that RE will not get the cash he may wish for to rebuild successfully. The poison chalice.

Next weekend will confirm our relegation.

Leeds will beat us easily.

Forest will beat Burnley.

West Ham will beat Palace.

Thought that may be the case, goodwhileitlasted1. No getting out of it this year. Inevitable, unfortunately, that it would happen eventually with the management of Shi 1.
Will Shi 2 be any better? Surely hard not to be. 🤞👍

11 Apr 2026 15:54:24
As we have discussed, is Rob really the best we can do at the moment. I have said a few times as others have, I am yet to be convinced and last night was confirmation that, at least in my opinion, the jury is definitely still out and a change may still be the best course of action.
No doubt there has been a little improvement at times, however people saying it is not Rob's fault are not entirely correct.


First half, as with many periods of play, I don't see the method or purpose. With Nuno we played on the counter attack, what is Rob's method, I just don't see it, maybe it is just me. We just seem to pass sideways and backwards with no idea how to create a chance.
Does anyone feel the same?
Thanks.

Totally agree with you, Banksy. Also, with Greylegs' comments about certain players, we could have, in my opinion, done a lot better than RE. No idea what his game plan is supposed to be, but it's not working. Maybe Fosun should approach Joao Moutinho as manager, with Ruben Neves as player coach.

It could work out well, I suppose. I'm going to have some say. Oh, it's going to cost too much, but what have we got to lose by getting two very intelligent footballers like that.

5


11 Apr 2026 23:09:21
Quite agree, Banksy. Rob has to go. I think Tomas Frank could do well in the Championship. Can't remember who he took up, but he did well in the Prem.

12 Apr 2026 08:38:44
I think he took Brentford up after many attempts.

12 Apr 2026 09:14:48
Inigo Perez or Rogier Meijer should be made priorities to replace Edwards. Let's get ambitious again and appoint someone who can bring some understandable tactics and attacking attitude.

12 Apr 2026 09:19:59
Would even consider Will Still. Although his time at Saints was less than successful, he has a record of achievement that should be recognised.

Will Still, Derry, haven't we already got his brother stand still.

No point changing the manager if the hierarchy is a complete mess.

Thomas Frank did well at Brentford because they are a well run club, but failed at Spurs because the top brass are chaotic.

The change needs to be made at a senior management level so the manager has a decent chance of success.

When Fosun first arrived, that's exactly what we had, but Jeff Shi ruined it over time, and look where we are now.

2


12 Apr 2026 12:24:30
What has happened up the mol over the last few seasons isn't Edward's fault, but he isn't the answer to the problems, he never was and never will be. He's just not good enough.
If he's still in charge next season, we will be stuck in the Championship.
Change needs to be made now or the close season.

12 Apr 2026 15:43:36
I would love to see Coady and Moutinho in at the helm. Couldn't do any worse.
And fans would love them.

12 Apr 2026 20:27:42
If Rob Edwards was the answer, then we were asking the wrong question!

Thomas Frank would run a mile from the Wolves job. He would know that we are more Spursy than Spurs. Brentford still doing well because they are run properly.

I, like many, had hoped that we would get a result last night if only to generate a bit of excitement for the end of season run in. Unfortunately we put in a very pitiful performance against a very poor side. First half was sterile and with little to get excited about. The second half was our whole season condensed into 45 minutes of mistakes.

In the Prem, if you make mistakes, you will get punished. Unfortunately we have continued to make these basic errors and it will cost us. With the exception of our two Brazilians in midfield, we have a side that is lacking. Question is do we need a new manager or do we need new players?

5


11 Apr 2026 15:49:43
Both, Nando. Re needs to go now.
Most of the players are either being sold or not even good enough for the Championship.
So make of that what u want.
I'm not a fan of:
Bellegarde
Tatchoua
Armstrong
Johnstone
Angel
Hwang.

Last night was a lost opportunity. Had we won, we would have reduced the gap to Tottenham to ten, West Ham to nine, and been level with Burnley. Despite being the better side in the first half, we never looked like scoring, whereas they missed two gilt-edged chances. The reason is that none of our midfielders is capable of playing a killer ball. I lost count of the number of times our players turned back on themselves and either passed back to a central defender or lost the ball and set up a counter attack.

We have probably set up more goals for our opponents than they have set up themselves this season. Andre and Joao Gomes are both culpable in this regard. I am struggling to remember any assists they have had this season, but I can think of numerous assists they have had for the opposition. A forward thinking central midfield pairing is our top priority for the Summer window.

11 Apr 2026 13:48:31
As everyone knows, Rob Edwards was brought in ready for life in the Championship.

If that is the case, I expect any ongoing negotiations in regards to incoming and outgoing players to be concluded very quickly at the end of this season or early during the transfer window so that Edwards gets a full pre season to instill his ideas.



However I think we'll do the usual, sell all of our better players and panic buy during the last week.
