Olly would be an interesting short term appointment. May well be the kind of guy to lift the gloom and give them some good results early in his tenure, which might well be enough to keep them up. Jury is still out on his long term abilities as a manager in the Premiership but he did a tidy job with Blackpool, considering the resources at his disposal.
"...while former Queens Park Rangers manager Ray Wilkins has said he would be interested if approached."
I'm sure he would be, but I'm even surer he won't!
''Incorruptible Addick said he'd be interested if approached, and although he has no experience and even less chance, bookmakers immediately installed him at shorter odds than Ray bloody Wilkins'' !!!!!!!
Nothing against Connor, hope he does a good job. They look ridiculous now though, with all the spouting about high quality candidates and getting the right person etc, they have appointed their 5th choice having been turned down by Curbs, Bruce, Walter Smith and Brian McDermott. Glad Curbs didn't go there, rubbish club, rubbish town, stupid boardroom.

Agree, good luck to Connor but they said "not a job for a novice" and appointed a novice, at least in managerial terms.
Sometimes Chairmen, CEO's etc of football clubs should just shut up and get on with their job, but many of them cannot resist sampling their little bit of media exposure.
it seems fairly obvious that Morgan (and maybe Moxey) want to run that team. It happened with Hearts when Burley was in charge when that Lithuanian guy took over. He made them sign a load of Lithuanian players and I don't know why he didnt just put himself in charger as manager. Morgan wouldnt be able to storm in the dressing room with the likes of curbs and bruce, yet you feel he has gone for Connor because he isnt high profile enough to demand anything. Cant see Wolves surviving now, the plyers must be well pissed off
I guess it must be difficult to not be bitter/smug when you are sacked by a club, who then have a shambles of a season!
I imagine you also have mixed feelings if you get sacked and the next manager does far better!
I'm sure SCP was pleased at a personal level when Huddersfield got promoted to the PL, but on a professional level it was probably quite damaging to his career, with Wagner do so much better than him.
In fairness to Mick. He was leaving in a couple of games time but the fans gave him such a hard time over a meaningless substitution that he left them to it for the last few games.
A tiny bit like the myth that I encounter all the time, that CAFC fans “got Curbs sacked” - but for Mick and Ipswich it was almost true.

"This is definitely not a job for a novice manager," Wolves CEO Jez Moxey.
16th being their lowest position under his reign
