McCarthy delighted with his 5-goal Wolves

Wolves boss Mick McCarthy says their thumping of FA Cup opponents Doncaster Rovers will be good for morale.

The win was Wolves' biggest since a 6-0 home thumping of Gillingham in March 2003, with McCarthy unable to recall when he last oversaw such a margin of victory.

"I can remember the last time I was beaten more than 5-0, which was Southampton here (0-6 in March 2007)," said McCarthy.

"I can't remember too many 5-0 scorelines, but this turned out to be a comfortable night in the end with what was a good professional performance.

"Once we managed to get the second goal it completely opened up the game, and after that there were more chances."
