'Edwards sacking understandable but is it wise?'

[BBC] [Getty Images] We asked you for your thoughts on the sacking of head coach Rob Edwards by Wolverhampton Wanderers - and it seems a lot of you are left feeling puzzled. Some think Edwards has not been given enough of a chance, others feel he did not impress - but you have your own questions regarding his potential replacement Cesar Peixoto. Here is a selection of what you had to say about Edwards' dismissal: Simon: Madness. Things were looking so positive with new player contracts and two excellent signings, all decisions Edwards had been pivotal to. We are now apparently considering someone without any real top level experience. Makes no sense whatsoever! James: The handling of this is dreadful, if the stories are true. Edwards deserved better. Is the new man a Nuno or a Pereira? Time will tell, but after a week in which the club did everything right, this seems very strange. Leigh: I would have liked RE to succeed, but there was no guarantee and there were doubts among the fans. After the season from hell, which RE was part of (even if he wasn't responsible for), there is a strong argument for a reset and a fresh start. Momentum is everything this season and RE had none after last season. Jack: You wouldn't be able to print my actual thoughts on this... but the safe version is that this seems like a massive own goal. Raul and Trippier coming in was the first good decisions the club had made in years, and it seemed like they were turning a corner in prioritising the fans. This though, seems like a massive backwards step. This best be part of some grand plan by the club's hierarchy, else League One beckons again. Stefan: Chaos theory is often thought of as being a mathematical and physical process regarding the behaviour of systems. Those who believe this are very wrong. Chaos theory is actually the board and directors of Wolves who think they know how to run a football club. The days of Solbakken, Saunders, Zenga are on the horizon again. Never has the chant "you don't know what you're doing" been more appropriate. Jackery: I see Jorge Mendes is the agent of Cesar Peixoto. Can we expect an influx of Portuguese talent at Molineux that proved so successful under Nuno? Winning the Championship on the club's 150th anniversary is the goal! Laura: It seems that Fosun's plan for running a football club hasn't progressed past "Do whatever Jorge Mendes says" - it staggers me that they just keep on going back to a plan that worked once, but has absolutely followed the law of diminishing returns since then. Given all the poor decisions that have been made by senior management in the last few years, I value having someone in the manager's role who I trust to fight for what is right for the club and, in that respect, I am very sorry to see Edwards go - this isn't how I want my club to treat people. James: Sacking Edwards is understandable but not wise. If Wolves wanted to judge him fairly, they should have judged him over the first 12-15 Championship games, not whether he could rescue a side that was virtually down when he arrived. Unless there are serious internal issues we cannot see, this was unfair and risks another cycle of instability and decline. Scott: Edwards may not have been the man for the job, passion only gets you so far but to be looking at an unknown, unproven manager for the English leagues is another backward step by Fosun. Have they not learnt anything from their previous managerial appointments? It appears not. Latest Wolves news, analysis and fan views Ask about Wolves - what do you want to know?
