Wolves make Gary O’Neil sack decision as plan revealed following Everton thumping
Wolves face West Ham on Monday, and a decision has been seemingly been made on the manager.
Gary O’Neil is likely to remain as Wolves manager for their next game, it has been reported.
According to talkSPORT, the plan is for O’Neil to remain in charge for the game against West Ham on Monday. The hierarchy is aware however that he has lost the support of those who regularly attend matches.
Wolves suffered a 4-0 defeat to relegation rivals Everton which saw them slide down the table to second from bottom. They’ve conceded 36 goals, six more than bottom side Southampton. In the aftermath of the defeat at Goodison Park, travelling supporters booed the team, and chanted ‘Sacked in the morning’ at their own manager.
Responding to the chants, the former Bournemouth manager said: “Whatever the fans think of me, there is definitely no-one working harder than me and I will continue to do so until someone tells me not to.
“I appreciate every one of the Wolves fanbase. They have given me unbelievable support. Now it’s tough, I am happy to look them in the face and take whatever criticism they throw at me. I accept full responsibility.
“I will work with everything I have. I will back myself to get the most of the group. I understand the drive for change. You never know how much of a percentage of supporters it is, negative noise is always the loudest, but I understand.”
