Mick McCarthy - FIRED!

When we sold Roger Johnson to Wolves, I was really dissapointed as he was brilliant at the back for us along side Scott Dann. I really can't understand how it hadn't worked out for him at Wolves. On the other hand Scott Dann starting to improve for Blackburn after his injury. Can't see any PL takers for him in the summer transfer window.
 
I thought Johnson would be the player who helped establish them as a solid PL club. Him as a good cb, o'hara as a good cm with fletcher/Doyle/Jarvis would give them a solid basis. All of them (especially Johnson) have been shocking all year.

Shame but there you go.
 
Roberto Di Matteo will be looking for a job by the end of the summer, once Chelsea hire Fabio Capello.

FYI, i think RDM should be appointed permanent manager at Chelsea but i don't see it happening regardless of the CL final result.

I thought Hennessey was decent for Wolves so I don't understand why you say the GK was poor.

Wayne Henessey couldn't catch a cold, worse gk in the prem by a country mile.

Roger Johnson didn't fit in with the rest of the Stafford squad, he came in with too big an ego and clashed with the different personalities in the dressing room.

Wolves couldn't get a premier league standard manager because of the silly contract terms their board was offering. They were in the bottom 3 but were offering a contract which bound the new manager to League 1 wages if the club was relegated. This is in massive contrast to RDM at Chelsea, offered £750,000 bonus for winning the champions league before the semis, admitted the last 2 games of the champs league are probably the hardest but it was AVB who got Chelsea to the semis. That kind of business sense from Wolves deserves to go down with the likes of venkys of Blackburn
 
Not sure if things just got better or worse for Wolves? :confused:

Good luck to him though I don't want to see Wolves go the same way as Pompey.

Interesting appointment, decent amount of experience winning in Denmark and can hopefully transplant that on the team (best thing for the champ is the winning mentality).

At least he wont come with any baggage or a stigma of being one type of manager.

well his managerial record isnt bad at all to be honest, and seriously doubt we will go the way of Pompey

Wolves have miles better infrastructure and have a reasonable financial grounding, it would take a lot to do a pomp.

Indeed, we have no debt, so no need to sell, and no need to panic financially

You'll have to sell a few high earners (assuming their contracts are not effected by relegation) because the club should not look to run up some debt next season paying prem wages on champ earnings (even with parachute payments its a big financial hit).

I wouldn't expect a fire sale but a few players will end up leaving for money reasons (as well as performance) and allow the new guy to shape the squad more to his liking.

Either way Wolves will be in a better position overall than Blackburn who should see a fair few players leave just because of the mess the management has turned out to be.
 
I believe the majority have a relegation wage drop clause in their contract. My source is a local newspaper for this though, so it may not be accurate.
 
Id say most players have that clause

Anyways...
