Wolves boss McCarthy targeting extended FA Cup run

Wolves boss Mick McCarthy would love a long FA Cup run.

Wolves face Stoke City today.

McCarthy said: "I got to the semi-finals when I was managing Sunderland and I won two finals as a player in Scotland and it's great to win these competitions.

"Those medals in the cupboard are nice and I would love to get there but we know the importance of the Premier League. But it will be interesting to see what people do as sides get knocked out and they end up in the fifth or sixth round.

"That run at Sunderland (in 2004) was not detrimental to us in the league and we ended up in the play-offs.

"You get a great buzz out of it and if we could do it and link it with our league games then great."
