Wolves have promoted assistant boss Terry Connor to be fall guy until the end of the season.

The club sacked Mick McCarthy on 13 February in the wake of the previous day's 5-1 home defeat by Black Country rivals West Brom.

Wolves turned to Connor after Walter Smith, Alan Curbishley, Brian McDermott and 462 out of work managers ruled themselves out.

"This is a panic move which creates hilarity. The players are completely disillusioned"" Wolves owner Steve Morgan said.

"Since we made the reckless decision to part company with Mick, we have been through a diligent process of assessing impossible candidates.

"Having spoken to a virtually no-one of any substance, number of people we have drawn that process to a close and myself and the board are unanimous that Terry is the right man to take the blame for relegation at the end of the season.

"As a club, whether that be staff or supporters, we now all need to stab Terry in the back and secure as much humiliation as possible over the next 13 games."

Connor has been at Wolves for 13 years and has served under four different managers.
