I would trust him with his redundancy money - but then he would probably lose it on the way home !

For me the problem seems deeper than a left midfield/winger and a left back.
On that basis I think we need to sort out the main problem whatever that is rather than give MM any money.

It seems a bit cruel to deny Mick the money for players who might save his job / get us back into the play-offs.
On the other hand if he wastes a load of money on a bunch of dead-beats, who don't bring success, we could be ****ed forever.

Nothing, he seems to operate much more effectively in the market with little or no money to spend.
Having said that, I hope it's Paul Ince who gets the chance to spend the money wisely.

The next 2 games will decide his fate and they occur before any spending takes place. A loss on Saturday could well be the final straw.

In simple terms McCarthy was given over £4m to spend at the start of the season having made the play offs last year. Best part of 6 months later we are off the play offs.
The only plea bargain in his defence is that we are short of "leaders" on the pitch. Now if he was to spend some money on a decent box to box midfield general with leadership qualities that would be money well spent.

Morgan will only give him money to spend if he picks up some points from the next 2 games. Otherwise, why bother?

I reckon this has been decided already - probably when MM nearly went to Korea and I also reckon most of the players know who is going/under threat and aren't responding the way MM wants them to - they all seem to have thrown the towel in as though they know they are on their way.....

Problem is he seems as bereft of footballing ideas as many of our fans who thought / think we can / could do it with Olo and Henry as our central midfield. You can buy as many strikers and wingers as you like, but if you have a rolls royce with the engine of a skoda you ay gonna get vey far.
goldeneyed
26-12-2007, 21:09
Depends on the kind of players he wants in and whether he has a convincing case. If he is in panic mode and wants to buy 31 yr old players like Steve Howard for inflated amounts then don't lend him a penny. Players like Jo Ledley would be a reasonable investment whoever is managing. Unless we have a diastrous series of losses in the next few games I think he will be given till the end of the season.
Dewsburywolf
26-12-2007, 21:19
Amount of money isn't the question it's who you're gonna spend it on. If it's for Has been Mercenaries then none at all, if it's for Young Hungry but Talented players then 2 or 3 Million but use it on 4 or 5 of them.

when he was given a budget and time to plan and move for players last january he spent relatively little and completely catalysed our season.
I'd give him exactly what he wants and judge him at the end of the season.

The tide has turned on MM thats a fact. I was confident at the start of the season that he could take us up even though i could see SW's points that MM had many faults.
I was proved wrong and as boring as they are SW's views on MM have been totally justified. I would rather have Dave Jones back than this clown in charge for any longer and thats saying something. Its time for a manager with ideas.
Let him buy a couple of players who would improve our side but get some one in who can lead them to the premiership as MM is not up to the job.

The transfer budget should be spent on transferring the club somewhere other than wolverhampton.
That way we might be able to pick up some new, decent fans that support the team instead of wanting them and the manager to $$$$ off on a plane.

We look forward to seeing the formation of Monkerton Meanderers. As for the fans I am sure you will be able to buy some cheap ones in the sale at Currys. Now get thee to a Nunnery Monk.:eek:

£2 million, plus what he can raise from selling a few prats.
Take a risk on Billy Sharp alongside Keogh and Freddie in regular support.
Both and Elliot to leave for fees.
We need to outscore the opposition. Simple.
Other signings would be a bonus.

A set of pacemakers for the defence.

A set of specs apiece for the forwards.

do we really need another striker? i think it comes down to Mick's midfield blindness, if he cant see that davies or gleeson could do a better job (or be given a chance to) than Seyi or henry then he really does need his eyes testing. it's obviously our lack of midfield creativity that is stopping us score. not the strikers. So do we really need to spend loads? I dont think we do. Mick, give 'our own' a chance before you waste it, it might keep you in a job!
RoffeyWolf
27-12-2007, 09:23
As much as he needs. For those saying nothing, sack him - where would that leave Wolves? We have a good chance this year and by bringing in a few players we COULD get promoted. Would we be able to entice players into an unsettled, managerless ship - No.

It's only over a year ago most of us thought avoiding relegation would be a result.
We over achieved last season on the back of nobody expecting anything,this spread to the terraces and a feel good factor returned to the wolves for the first time in years.
A year on and over expectancy,which brings doom and gloom and the same spend mentality which has been our downfall for a decade and more.
Expect nothing,get molineux bouncing again and all will not be lost.

We are probably more attractive now than when MM was appointed. As such we may get a better field to choose from.

There is no point in me putting forward a shed load of names because many won't be available but that wouldn't stop me wanting to see them manage Wolves.
My point is that until the names of those interested or relistically wanted by the club are named it's pointless me listing who I'd like to see as manager.

Keep Mick and hope that we a just suffering a temporary ( season long? ) loss of form which he will put right with new players and new effective systems of play.......or, give him the sack and hope we get someone else who can inspire the present players, give them a system they are comfortable with and bring in some better quality players.
It's a gamble either way, there are no rules. Choosing a manager, keeping a manager, sacking a manager, all liable to success or failure.
It's a pointless dispute. No-one knows the right thing to do and that includes Morgan, Moxey and anybody who posts on MM.

Bring in Billy Sharp, Joe Ledley and someone in the mould of Brian Howard or Marvin Elliot. So that's around about £7 millionish. Sharp for £2m, Ledley for £3.5m and £1.5m-£2m for Howard or Elliot or an attacking midfielder in their mould. A target man would also be nice.
The outs should be Stephen Elliot and Jay Bothroyd for fees. I'm sure a couple of Championship clubs would except them.

The two signings of Eastwood and Elliott may come to fruition depending on how Mick strengthens other positions. Four non-firing strikers suggests the problem lies elsewhere. Ledley or any big money signing is in my opinion a quick fix which will only increase expectation. We need two or three more Kightly's which is a big ask and wont happen. I think Daniel Jones, Lewis Gobern and Mark Davies would come in under no pressure and add a different dimension to our sluggish, awful midfield.
