Wolves boss apologises for West Brom hammering

Wolves manager Mick McCarthy has apologised for today’s humiliating 5-1 Black Country derby loss to West Bromwich Albion.

McCarthy’s side were thoroughly outplayed by the Baggies, who scored four second half goals at the Molineux, and he offered an apology for the performance which saw Wolves fall to 18th on the league table.

"I would think it was one of the most disappointing afternoons of my career,” a distraught McCarthy said after the heavy defeat.

"I apologise for the performance and I've never done that before. But the way we capitulated in the last half-hour is not associated with my teams.

"We came here on the back of a good win and performance at QPR last week. We got away with the first half and started the second period well.

"But we did not deal with two corners which cost us and then at 3-1 West Brom picked us off when we pushed forward."

Despite the loss, McCarthy was remaining defiant regarding his position at the helm of the Wolverhampton club.

"I always feel I'm the right person to do it,” he added.

"I've not got a message for the fans. I've apologised. That is all I can do. That's how badly I feel about it."
