Regarding the question posed in the header, Cinci suggested the same months ago. For his troubles he was taken outside and beaten senseless with an array of weapons until such time he repented of such foolishness.
Has anyone considered that the sacking of Mick McCarthy might just have been a big mistake? I'm sure we wouldn't be at this end of the table had he still been here. Just a thought.
Sorry Bute, where are Ipshit again? It's like a broken record, it really should be bye Mick, thanks for the memory but now we need to move upwards which we would have done if the chuckle brothers hadn't made a complete screw up
What I mean is the only mistake in sacking Mick was that it was way too late

Terrie stop hounding us with your provocative line of questioning.
We're going to smash them.
Cinci:
"As it is we have rebooted again, the club spent 8 million on another mangers signings, some of which clearly dont fit into Deanos plans and we have to start all over again."
Don't think there's much truth to that, Cinci.
How much did Solbakken use his own signings?
Sako always plays under both managers.
Saunders has probably use Bjorn with the same frequency as Solbakken.
Doumbia's usually played when available.
Boukari still injured.
Margereiter never used by either gaffer
So that leaves Peszko who I presume your comment which was phrased generally actually specifically refers to. And on Peszko, he's returning from serious injury, never struck me as a world beater before injury, so it's not a huge surprise that he's not the first name on the team sheet is it?
Think Solbakken's signings are probably the only way that his appointment hasn't been a waste of time or money. Peszko might leave at the end of his loan but of the permanent signings, I'm sure all but Margereitter will have a part to play in the rebuild, Saunders will be chuffed to have them in the squad, and the money spent won't have been wasted. They've all probably got more technical ability than most of our old guard and will all benefit massively from a summer with Purchase in terms of their adaptation to the English leagues.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
By table, you mean the Championship table?
So you at least acknowledge then that you would be in the Championship under Mick and that he would not have saved you from relegation from the Premier League? Excellent - you are at last on the path to truth and reconciliation.
As mike_hockin and plenty of others have said, the only mistake Morgan and Moxey made was in not sacking McCarthy much sooner. Now move on.
Bute:

We would have the Clack leading the line instead of Sigurdarson though Bute, which is why many are still probably happy we moved on..?!
We will never know if relegation could have been avoided, Aries, so no, I am not acknowledging that we would definitely have been in the Championship this season. However, we are in this division, and my point is that we wouldn't be scrapping around in the basement right now is MM had been retained.
But you knew that's what I meant. You simply tried to be clever, and sadly failed.
Lets not talk about the past its boring now.
3-0 today
Sako
Sigurdarson (2)
Easy.
1-3. Bellamy hat-trick and o.g.
Bhatti part deux.
No Bute, I wasn't trying to be anything, but Mick's been gone a year now and the writing was on the wall nearly two years ago at the end of the 2010-11 season when the Premier League future of a club of Wolves' supposed resources went to the last five minutes of the last game. Ask yourself, should Wolves have been in the position? Then ask yourself, who was the manager in charge who could and should have done something about it long before? The next season, McCarthy bought Steven Fletcher but only used him as a substitute for much of the season, opting instead to persist with the ineffective Kevin Doyle. Mick's judgement was poor and as a result he got you relegated long before he was sacked.
