Their chosen model of importing the Primeira Liga into the Championship hasn't been tested. They have a rookie Championship manager who betrayed his naivety with his post-match comments. To say "The referee must protect what people come to the stadium to see – they come to see football" will have all the old school Championship managers licking their lips. Their highly gifted imported players, no doubt used to being given every protection by Portuguese refs, are in for a rude awakening over the next 42 games. Truth is they got a schooling from Warnock and the players.
Wolves are doomed to fail, there are too many subtleties in the English game that cannot be beaten by flair, skill, and good football. You win this league by, generally, being unspectacular, efficient and stopping the opponents from playing. I don't even think Wolves have signed that many great players apart from the 15m Euro player.
