Wolves Fans Turn on Rob Edwards After 1-1 With 10-Man Sunderland

The coach says he will focus on a summer reset for the Championship.

Overview

  • Wolves, which drew 1-1 at Molineux on Saturday, were booed off after failing to beat Sunderland despite Dan Ballard’s red card for pulling Tolu Arokodare’s hair.
  • Rob Edwards walked straight down the tunnel at full-time and later said he skipped his usual salute to avoid inflaming an already angry crowd.
  • He said a jeered substitution of Hugo Bueno was due to a knee problem and explained he wanted to introduce another forward.
  • Santi Bueno’s header was Wolves’ first goal in 47 days, yet the already relegated side stayed bottom as empty seats and chants urging owners Fosun to sell showed rising unrest.
  • Edwards says he has a clear view of who stays for a Championship rebuild and accepts he must start next season well to win back doubters.
