All the talk about spending money in January to hopefully kept us out of relegation zone if they had spent this so called budget with what we spent preseason we might not be in the mess we are now because that’s what it is ?
1.) 10 Oct 2025 21:09:10
That's their tactics, sell off our best, spend a bit in the Summer, see how it goes then spend again in January to ensure no more than Premier League survival. All about the value of Fosun's investment and nothing to do with football, ambition or the needs of the fans.
It's the downward spiral that some of us have been predicting for years and getting shot down for it. I think most can see it now, however.

Still a few in denial Long.
They seem to struggle differentiating concerns with the management of the Club with being a caring fan.

I know rugeley, it gets a bit tiresome when you have the audacity to criticise fosun and all the happy clap brigade tell you to go and support the ?
I love the club and have been going since 1980 but cannot support fosun in what they are doing, they are systematically eroding the integrity of the club, loyal fans that were going in the old 4th division in the freezing cold and rain are just an annoyance to the powers that be now, they want the tourist and corporate fans who will spend silly money for seats and merchandise

The footie season falls into a familiar rhythm with Fosun at the helm. I believe I mentioned their business plan a few years ago, to buy young and cheap and sell on for maximum profit. As an investment company this is their raison d'etre, to make profit and/or sell with enhanced value. They have discovered how difficult this is to do in the Premiership without a global presence and a huge stadium. They made some effort to enhancing Wolves profile globally, spoke of a new stadium, then COVID hit, and as a group Fosun, who were highly geared, were caught with their pants down. Since then the group has sold assets to reduce debt and focus on the profitable cash producing parts of their empire. Wolves value has improved since their purchase but the plan to create a club that figures highly on the World stage and to create huge value is long gone. It offers the group none of the high profile they envisaged. They fail to understand the connection with fans, they understand only what makes money. I have previously referred to the statement they made in the 2022 accounts.that their intent was to dispose of assets that do not produce cash. Hence their lazy approach to the summer window, knowing they have the capacity to spend in January to save Prem status. This is a view that lacks understanding of Prem football. I believe their intent is still to sell, their problem is who is going to be the buyer?
5.) 11 Oct 2025 19:18:40
I seriously suspect the long term intent Wimborne, given all the geo political activities. Do fosun really care about a football club in Wolverhampton England UK? The world has moved in so many ways since their takeover.
As you say covid caught us, as Tfig would point out Seville a turning point.
We've had disaster after disaster managerialism and a decent squad squandered again and again, now we've reached a point whereby players don't want to join us allegedly for whatever reason.
What's the deal with VP? A 3 year contract after a terrible run of games, seemingly nonsensical subs costing us points and maybe a lost dressing room.
Sure he's got a connection with the fans a nunoesque familiarity maybe, but the results, the tactics and points say it all premiership survival wise.
Can fosun lay claim to parachute monies and then sell when we fall?
I've no idea but the sooner they've gone the better, we maybe worse off than when they arrived but would they care?
6.) 12 Oct 2025 10:24:17
I think you have all pretty much summed up the mess we are in, Abbeywolf, I am with you, very strange in my opinion giving VP a new contract, that is of course unless there is a clause on points achieved. Having no confidence at all in Jeff and Co not sure if this is likely. Really hope we achieve a decent points return in the next 3 or 4 games, what happens though if we don’t, will VP be replaced? What a predictable shambles, so far they have always managed to survive, just, eventually we won’t.

I agree bb can’t understand why would even consider Ali he is no longer prem standard ??♂️
1.) 02 Oct 2025 00:06:11
To be honest Suffolk buddy I don't for a second believe that the club are considering him. They had the whole of pre season to offer him a trial and they didn't, pretty sure it's just click bait ?
15 Mar 2025 09:52:56
Totally agree abbey were top of the league at shooting ourselves in foot as long as we pick up a point happy days if we get win think we’re safe?
1.) 15 Mar 2025 17:04:26
Well we got through it Suffolk despite fluffing further goal attempts. It's a big big 3 points and the jobs been done.
9 points clear, for once I'm wanting the red mancs to win tomorrow night.
Well done to strand today, lovely taken goals, what a shame others couldn't hit the target.!
Onwards and upwards, keeping the faith, COYW
2.) 15 Mar 2025 17:57:22
Happy when final whistle went we always put are self in a position where they leave us fans butting our nails but at end of day we’re safe so let’s plan for next season have to move a few players out or we will be in same position next season.coyw ?
02 Mar 2025 22:29:15
Feel we are in trouble now will be interesting to see which players stand up to the task of getting the goals needed in next 3games as we’ve been relying on cunha to much
1.) 03 Mar 2025 06:37:19
Maybe Suffolk, but maybe we've played 'to' cunha as a one trick team, sure, as on Saturday, he can create something out of nothing but I think we can create the opportunity for others to shine. Larsen for example, he's a big lad can hold the ball up, he as a poachers eye, but he has to be allowed to get in the positions.
Some long balls up for him, some crosses into the area, some shots for him to mop up when blocked or parried.
Where they come from tho?. Marshal in a more forward midfield placemen?, Guedes if fit. Hwang? Lima in an advanced WB, RAN being more direct? Not playing the ball from the back from goal kicks etc.
My point is we've obviously got to adapt and become more attack minded as a body, difficult with the defensive frailties we have I know but I believe VP can work it.
I thought Pond gave a good account of himself on sat, we have Mane and Angel from U21 who may surprise if given opportunity. And, if we're honest, cunha dosnt always contribute fully to the team when he goes missing wandering around.
Don't get me wrong, cunha will be a big loss purely from not distracting the opposition defence, but we can, will, must survive without him.
2.) 03 Mar 2025 07:18:22
Must be so difficult to manage Cunha, talented, caring (recent hospital visit), but moody (all game his body language was poor) and reckless.
Anyway as you say Abbey, irrelevant for at least 3 games.
Can this group show more character than we are seeing and secure our
Premiership status? I hope so, but not confident.
3.) 03 Mar 2025 10:26:42
We’re going to have to figure it out for next season anyway, so it’s a big chance for someone else to step up, I think Munetsi could be that midfielder
4.) 03 Mar 2025 12:59:37
With Cunha being the undoubted star of the team he tends to get frustrated with everyone else. Bit like former great players like Lampard, Rooney, Hoddle, Keane etc failing as managers because they can't truly understand lesser talent. I'm sure Cunha will thrive elsewhere if someone will take a chance on him, a bit like the ABBA song!

Sa is playing much better now we have a better goalie on the bench. I said at the start of the season that Bentley wasn’t good enough, but certain posters put me down think I was probably right.
1.) 24 Feb 2025 19:20:08
Who disagreed that Bentley wasn't good enough cause anyone that's watched him could see that! Here's the question though is Johnstone good enough? Cause if not why exactly have we spent £10m on an aging keeper that's also not good enough?
Also sorry to say it but all you've done there is a good old dose of confirmation bias! Sa had his best season the year he came, he was nominated for signing of the season remind me who was the back up then? It was Bentley wasn't it, like I said confirmation bias! Sa was bang average at the start of the season, ya know when we benched him despite Johnstone being here. So is it not at all possible/likely that the reason he's improved is simply because he responds better to a coach who shares his nationality?
2.) 24 Feb 2025 21:23:45
The defence collectively improving is clearly a factor.
3.) 25 Feb 2025 03:18:51
Defence as certainy supported goalkeeping. I do think to improve the team we most definitely require a new number 1.Sa kicking was awful on Saturday.

This is just insane won’t go over what everyone is saying but no chance of survival this season with exception of man city we have had a reasonable fixture list to start season look what’s coming can’t see us winning any games for new year
18 Oct 2025 20:53:53
I’ve been a wolves fan since 1957/8 and I can honestly say with exception the mid 80s under sammy chapman this is the poorest side we have had we don’t look like scoring I went to pre season Celtic v kne we were in trouble it is no good saying team needs time to fell in prem you don’t get time this is all down to owners ????any one not agreeing are living in cloud cuckoo land coyw????

This game with Leeds has 0-0 written all over it hope I am wrong
