Nothing is going well in Wolverhampton. 19th in the Premier League despite a fairly large squad, Wolves have been struggling since the start of the season and are struggling to escape this negative spiral. Beaten this weekend against Ipswich (1-2), Gary O’Neil’s players suffered their fourth consecutive defeat in the championship. One defeat too many because the 41-year-old coach was dismissed this Sunday by Wolverhampton as the club explained in a press release:
“The Wolves have parted ways with head coach Gary O’Neil and his staff. O’Neil arrived at Molineux just three days before the start of the 2023/24 Premier League season, taking on a significant challenge and ultimately guiding the Old Gold to a successful campaign. During his first season in charge, Wolves beat Manchester City and won impressively at Chelsea and Tottenham Hotspur, as well as against rivals West Bromwich Albion on a trip to the quarter-finals of the FA Cup.»
