Wolves' Seasonally Challenged: Cosmic Irony and a Dreadful Run of Results
A sea of old gold and black descended upon Molineux Stadium as Wolves fans took to the concourse, protesting against their club's ownership. The Sky Sports Monday Night Football cameras captured the scene, but it was too little, too late. By the time referee Michael Salisbury blew his final whistle in the 10th minute of added time, the game had long been over, and Wolves had succumbed to another crushing defeat.
The latest loss, a 4-1 thrashing at home against Manchester United, has left fans questioning whether their team will ever register a win again. The scoreline was flatter than a pancake, with Wolves' only consolation being the first goal they'd scored in over 600 minutes of league football. Matheus Cunha, once a fan favourite, drew a blank despite peppering Sam Johnstone's goal.
Manager Rob Edwards tried to put a positive spin on the result, acknowledging that fans are angry and that his players need to show more effort and commitment. However, it's hard to see how he can escape criticism when his team's performance was reminiscent of 11 drunk people stumbling around on the pitch.
The issues run deeper than just one match, though. Wolves have taken just two points from their opening 15 matches, a historically dreadful run of results that has left fans scratching their heads. The team's squad quality has been eroded over time, with star players sold without adequate replacements, and head coaches coming and going when results inevitably don't go their way.
The Fosun ownership group, led by Jeff Shi, has come under fire from fans for their handling of the club. With powers of perception like "It's the toughest league in the world and we came into a team who hadn't won since April," Edwards' decision to abandon Boro for Wolves now looks more baffling with each passing game.
As the season limps along, one thing is clear: something needs to change at Molineux. The fans are fed up with the lack of progress, and it's time for someone to take responsibility and make some changes.

I'm so frustrated with Wolves right now! They're supposed to be a top team in this league but honestly they just can't seem to get it together 
. The ownership group is really letting everyone down, it's like they're making the same mistakes over and over again without learning from them. I mean what was thought process behind signing some random player from Boro? 
It just feels like they're not invested in winning anything anymore. The fans are getting more and more angry by the game, it's heartbreaking to see 
. Something needs to change ASAP or we'll be stuck in this rut forever 
.
4-1 at home against United? That's just embarrassing. And I get why the fans are protesting – it feels like Fosun ownership isn't doing enough to turn things around. Edwards' positive spin on the game comes off as kinda forced if you ask me... 
I mean, yeah, his players need to step up their effort, but that's a pretty obvious one, right? 
It seems like there's a bigger issue at play here – Wolves just don't have the squad depth they used to. And come on, selling star players without replacing them is not the answer! 
. Fans are fed up 
with the constant losses 
and poor performance 
. I mean, come on 
, a 4-1 thrashing at home? That's just embarrassing 
! The team's squad quality has been depleted 
. The owners need to step up their game 
, or else the fans will keep protesting 
. Can someone please do something? 
wolves are having the WORST season ever they cant even get a win lol what is going on at that club?? i feel bad for the fans who r stuck with this team rn it sounds like there r some major issues with the squad and the management i mean come on 600 minutes without a goal? 
and now people r questioning if they ll ever get a win again 
anyways, i think it s time for a change at molineux ASAP 
), maybe we should take a step back and ask ourselves what we want to see from our team? What kind of support system do they need to succeed? 
Maybe it's time to get behind Rob Edwards and his coaching staff, and offer them some constructive feedback instead of just criticism. After all, we're all in this together 
they're just throwing players out like they don't care about the team anymore... selling a top player without even trying to replace him? that's a joke 
... and manager's always saying 'the fans are angry' but what about making changes? when's it gonna be enough for them? 
.
. The squad quality has been whittled down like it's no one's business 
The squad quality has been a joke for ages, and fans are sick of it. You can blame the ownership, you can blame Edwards, but at the end of the day, it's the players who need to step up their game
