Ridiculous sacking
The Board may be seeing poor results so far recently but they have been playing well in most matches so obviously Non Footballing people looking to buy a place in the Premier League.
Look at CHs result when he came here - not great but at least Tony Bloom knew he needed to give the Manager time to piece together his own team and his own system of playing and that doesn't happen in 2 or 3 months

It's a bit like a really shit computer game 'Foreign Football Chairman' where after every game you have one option ' Sack Manager' Y/N ?
And that's it.
And that's it.

A lot of comments on the Wolves messageboard impressed at the fact that FOSUN (the Chinese owners) certainly aren't "messing about" and have been very decisive.
Not many on there are mentioning what a SHIT appointment it was in the first place though.
"They absolutely did. A cursory look at the CVs of Dalrymple and Zenga showed them to be wildly under-qualified and inexperienced for the roles of MD and Manager at a club of our size and ambition.
Excellent news that they have identified the mistakes quickly and not tolerated people not being up to the mark"
I mean WTF ?

There's always the exception.
Karl Oyston, Blackpool.
There really are a lot of rubbish British owners as well.
Quite astounding the number of managers who get sacked shortly after being turned over by the Albion. Presumably the owners all think they really should be beating teams like BHAFC
2 and a half hours that's all I get.
2 and a half bloody hours before my petard gets hoisted.

Seemed an odd appointment at the time, but then you suspect that Zenga was probably not the person who was actually making the transfers. I'd imagine that's why Wolves are reluctant to recruit an English candidate as they probably want to impose a selection panel's players on the manager rather than leave him with the autonomy to sign who he wants. Someone like Steve Bruce would never have accepted that model of working.
All said and done though, firing Zenga this early in the season seems a bit premature. It's only a month ago that Wolves won 2-0 at St James' Park against Newcastle. Their dip since would suggest to me that it will take time for new players to bed in together and for them to achieve consistency. But the trouble is that I expect the owners want an instant return on their investment. Easier said than done though in what is a really strong renewal of the Championship.
