Just out of curiosity Mal, do you think Lee Griffiths would be able to do the same for Wolves as he is for Hibernian ?

If they get relegated next season, too, will Wolves be the first club to have sunk all the way from the top to the bottom twice? I'm thinking of the likes of Chelsea, Man City and Bradford who have all done the journey, and, in the case of the first two, recovered again - but has any team done it twice? Oh, Leeeeeeeooooooooooo...............?

Steve Morgan, the chairman, has revealed that no Wolves players have clauses written into their contracts to take pay cuts should they drop out of the Championship, raising the possibility of a major squad clear out at cut-price fees.

Roger Johnson is the top earner on £25,000 a week while midfielder Jamie O'Hara earns around £1 million a year. Kevin Doyle and Stephen Hunt, the Republic of Ireland internationals, also rake in over £16,000 a week and player wages are already a substantial drain on finances, with Morgan admitting Wolves are losing £6.5 million a year.

The majority of Wolves's players had their salaries slashed by around 40 per cent following demotion from the Premier League last May, but there is no agreement in place if they crash to a second successive relegation.

Morgan said: "It’s up to us to make sure we don’t get into a tail spin. The contracts were done when we were in the Premier League. There was no question or thought about going into League One. None of the contracts take that into account."

Wolves, who have lost an estimated £30 million in revenue since dropping into the second tier, are in the bottom three and could be bottom by Tuesday night if they lose at Millwall and Bristol City defeat Brighton.

Hmm... You might be right. Bristol City went from the First Division in 1910/11 down to Division 3 (South), which I guess was effectively the lowest tier at that time? They then recovered back to the First Division in 1976/77 before slumping again to the Fourth Division in 1982/83.

Maybe it's happened more times than I thought. Still sounds quite an illustrious club, Mal!

How long do they get a parachute payment from the Premier League for, and what is the amount?

was in that BBC article someone put the link to - no club is yet to suffer two back to back relegation in their history. The hapless circus at Molineux may be the first!

Oh, I assumed it was supposed to be 'their' points, as in not Wolves'.

C'mon Millwall, do Danny Baker proud!

I thought their awful run would not turn around soon enough to save them.

As I said after Sako's goal to get the fluke 1-1 with Watford that I hope that that didn't turn your season around - it seems to have done just that. Had you mot escaped with the worlds most undeserved draw against Watford, I think you'd have crumbled at Millwall too. Alas, the confidence of the players has grown quicker than it looked like it was going to.

Wolves back to normal 3pts dropped again :lol: :lol:
