DOYLE CALLS FOR FANS SUPPORT

Wolverhampton Wanderers striker Kevin Doyle has said that fans should offer them some hope of support, as they try to prevent relegation from the Premier league.

Wolves sacked manager Mick McCarthy a few weeks ago and were looking at the possibility of announcing his replacement prior to the match against Newcastle United.

WOLVES FIRE MCCARTHY

Wolves were once again in the headlines when they fired their manager Mick McCarthy, ending his 6 year reign at the Molineux Stadium.

Wolves found themselves languishing in the relegation zone, and warning signs had been sounded the week before McCarthy’s dismissal, with the chairman finding it appropriate to enter the changing room at the end of another match which had ended in defeat.

UNDER PRESSURE

Wolves manager Mick McCarthy and West Brom manager Roy Hodgson are two men under intense pressure. However, the pressure on Mick McCarthy relieved somewhat after the end of last week.

Wolves managed to beat QPR away from home in a thrilling encounter, which gives the opportunity for Wolves to take six points in three matches.

WOLVES STICKING BY MICK

Wolves owner Steve Morgan has said that he is not willing to sack the manager Mick McCarthy, despite fans not been pleased with his tactics and team selection so far.

Mick McCarthy was instrumental in getting Wolverhampton Wanderers promoted to the Premier League a few seasons ago, but Wolves fans have never been happy with the manager.

WOLVES UNHAPPY WITH RED CARD

Wolverhampton Wanderers have said that they are extremely disappointed that the English FA have decided to reject the appeal over the red card for Nenad Milijas. Nenad Milijas was sent off in the 1-1 draw with Arsenal recently.

The match was scheduled to take place on Boxing Day, but was postponed due to a tube strike in London. The match went as planned on Tuesday and Arsenal went into the match hoping to take all three points. It would have allowed them to close the gap on Chelsea given that the West Londoners could manage only a draw against Fulham.

HUNT CALLS FOR CONSISTENCY

Wolves midfielder Stephen Hunt has said that Wolverhampton Wanderers need to show some consistency in order to show that they can survive in the Premier League. Wolverhampton Wanderers are going through a tough period right now, with the team unable to put together a string of results.

As a result, they are sliding down the table pretty quickly, and the prospect of relegation now seems to be a distinct possibility.

McCarthy has no problem with Stoke tactics

Mick McCarthy will have no problem if Stoke City employ controversial tactics when they play his Wolves side this weekend.

Both sides have to agree to the use of a towel to dry the ball before a thrown in, but some accused Shotton and his club of attempting to circumvent the regulation by wearing a special shirt with a towelling lining, something he later denied.

WOLVES SUFFER AT GOODISON

Wolverhampton Wanderers suffered yet another defeat as they went down 2-1 in their match against Everton. However, Wolves manager Mick McCarthy was extremely critical of the penalty that was awarded to Everton, which ultimately led to the winner.

Speaking after the match, McCarthy was incensed, saying that the penalty was extremely soft and that a number of penalties would have to be given every week if it had been the case universally.

MCCARTHY DISAPPOINTED

When you play against the side who have decimated the Premier League Champions 6-1, you could be forgiven for hoping for anything less than a drubbing.

Considering Wolves came through the game against Manchester City with a 3-1 loss, there might be much to be happy about, but the sad matter of fact is that they left the Etihad Stadium without any points.

"We played well. We had to defend in the first-half and Wayne Hennessey made a couple of magnificent saves.

"You can imagine how he feels. He is as good as any goalkeeper in this league and it is such a shame it has cost us.
