There goes Julen!

The wider issue is that the entire backroom staff was Lops wasn't it? Given O'Neil was a standin and new then he won't have a team in place I presume?

We potentially have the most difficult opening set of fixtures too, it's not the time for upsetting a manager and then starting over.
 
I'm as against the appointment of O'Neil as much as the next person, but using win/ loss percentages as a stick to beat him with when he took over a job a few games in, immediately after getting belted 9 and having a squad everyone including his predecessor said wasn't good enough seems unfair.
 
Hopefully the hold up is us screwing every penny out of him. Our negotiating position should be; you wanna go, crack on but we ain't gonna sack ya. Then the balls in his court, he wouldn't quit.
More like the reverse, I would bet.

Don't see why. We should hold the cards here, he's not going to deliberately make himself look shit or lose on purpose. What's the incentive for.us to bump him off? Other than him wanting to go I see no reason.
 
Lop has behaved foolishly to air his grievances in public. His timing to want out is shite but maybe he was holding out thinking he could force Shi`s hand. I read somewhere it is part of Chinese culture not to "lose face", if this is true they were never going to give in to Lop`s demands. Who in God`s name came up with Gary O`Neill`s name? If Jeff want`s a yes man, Maybe the first question he should ask him is " do you think we will be relegated this season?". How much will it cost to get rid of Lop and his team? How much will it cost to employ O`Niell and a new backroom team? Hook a duck Jeff, do the math!

Why do you use a backtick instead of an apostrophe?

That's fair enough, but the problem with GON is that you know the club is only appointing him for the shittest criteria possible; he is free and cheap and shouldn't make a fuss whatever batshit decisions the club makes.

It's fucking insulting to all Wolves fans but they've absolutely shafted season ticket holders

Oh I agree, I just think that's the wrong stick
 
The only good thing to come out of all this is that at least it will give our local football journos the chance to take the club to task and ask the really searching questions
PTS "Welcome to Molineux Gary. Can I just ask for your favourite holiday destination? Still got 102 days to use up and need ideas"

Liam "Sorry I am late"
 
It sounds like bollocks, but I've just heard from an acquaintance that JL is staying and has been promised £75m to spend.

Like I said, sounds like bollocks, I don't believe it but thought it was worth sharing.

Source: friend of a friend, don't know where they heard it. Is anyone else hearing the same rumour? Probably not huh? Because it's stupid.
