Wolves fans turned on Gary O'Neil by chanting he should be 'sacked in the morning', with the manager seemingly clinging to his job after a 4-0 thrashing at Everton.
It was being aimed in the direction of Gary O'Neil, and it was coming from his own team's supporters.It was the type of performance and result which has been known to cause struggling managers before him to be shown the door, and O'Neil is now seemingly clinging to his job.
"We managed to produce some unbelievable stuff last season – away at Chelsea, Tottenham and West Brom - with a team that was heavily tipped by most of the nation for relegation, but we were nowhere near it, ever. Wolves finished 14th in O'Neil's maiden campaign last season, 20 points above the Premier League drop zone, but this felt like the tide turning against the manager, losing the support of the fans, and a night that he may not recover from.
"I will continue to take responsibility for all of my part on where we are at this moment. Whatever the fans may think of me and my team, there definitely isn't anyone working harder to help their football club than me.Wolves lie 19th in the league, three points adrift of safety. Their nine defeats is the most they have had in the top flight at this stage of a season since 2010-11, when they edged their way to survival by a point.
