Tim Spiers shares some very uncomfortable context about Wolves and sends big warning to Fosun

Wolves crashed to yet another defeat in the Premier League on Monday night, and Tim Spiers’ assessment of the situation is damning.

Wolves fell to a 4-1 loss against Manchester United, and throughout the game there were chants against owners Fosun.

And before the game, many Wolves supporters congregated outside the Billy Wright Stand, before entering the stadium 15 minutes after kick-off.

The images were powerful. For many, Fosun have destroyed this great club and the general consensus is that the Chinese conglomerate should now sell.

It seems unlikely that will happen any time soon. But certainly, fans are now ready to crank up the pressure to levels we have ever really seen before.

Wolves really are in a terrible spot, and on X last night, Tim Spiers offered some sickening context.

Tim Spiers suggests why this Wolves team could be the worst ever

Fosun oversaw great success in their early years at Wolves.

But for around four years now Wolves have been on a steady decline, with Fosun making terrible decisions over managers, sporting directors and recruitment.

The current squad is atrocious, and many are now wondering about that Derby County points record in 2007/08.

The Rams got 11 points that season, and at the moment Wolves are threatening to finished with fewer.

On social media, journalist Tim Spiers – who remains popular with Wolves fans for his past coverage of the club – pointed out one alarming aspect of the club’s current situation.

He said: “At least Derby 07/08 and Saints 24/25 were newly promoted teams. Wolves have been in the PL since 2018.

“This is managed decline on an unforgivable scale. The protests will only get bigger and louder.

“A club in decay, a fanbase without hope.”

Fosun’s ownership of Wolves has been calamitous

The context given by Spiers here really does hammer home how bad things are for Wolves.

It is absolutely unfathomable how Wolves can have a squad this bad after eight whole seasons in the Premier League.

Wolves got into the Europa League and reached an FA Cup semi-final when Nuno Espirito Santo was at the helm.

That should have been the moment to push on. To show ambition.

Instead, Fosun did not invest as much as they should. And when they did, they invested really poorly, and made shocking appointments.
