How many are confimed for Perth now Marcus. 2009/4/21 Marcus Chantry <marcus.chan...@macquarie.com> MICK McCARTHY'S TINY PAINTBRUSH "And there's Mick McCarthy," said Jeff Stelling on Sky Sports' Soccer Saturday as pictures showed a member of the backroom staff pouring Babycham over the Wolves manager in the Molineux dressing room, "with a big beaming smile on his face." But McCarthy wasn't smiling - he was wincing and attempting to scrape the stinging fizzy booze out of his eyes. Now that's what the Fiver calls a metaphor! McCarthy is the sort of man to treat such doom-laden symbolism with the same equanimity with which he treats all success and failure. The Wolves manager is rumoured to go through three pairs of shoes a week and has a loom in the Wolverhampton branch of Carpetright named in his honour so firmly are his feet on the ground. As the gold and black-clad hordes swarmed down from the terraces to celebrate Wolves' promotion after victory against QPR on Saturday, the man whose superb stewardship will see Wolves back in the Premier League next season kept his powder so dry that it began absorbing moisture from the surrounding areas. "At the moment it's all 'yahoo' and 'ra ra ra'," he said in his most downbeat Barnsley brogue, dipping his head to keep it out of the clouds. "I'll feel it more when we wake up tomorrow, although if it has been like it has over the last week I'll be up at 6am painting the garage." (Which begs the questions, how big is his ruddy garage? One that takes a week of 6am wake-ups to paint? That must be a big garage. Like, a seriously big garage. Or a seriously small paintbrush. But who'd use a small paintbrush to paint a garage? Not the Fiver, that's for sure.) But we digress. McCarthy probably ought to enjoy the yahooing and ra-ra-raing while he can. The doom-mongers are never slow to predict a promoted team's instant relegation, and the portents aren't good. Last year's Championship champions? Relegated (well, as good as). Last time Wolves were in the Premier League? Relegated. Last time McCarthy was in the Premier League? Relegated. The Fiver, though, isn't going to join in with the miserable bunch of negative nellies already tipping Wolves for the drop. There's more than a hint of the 2006/07 Reading side about Wolves so we're expecting a mid-table finish and several lessons for Hansen, Lawro and co on just how best to analyse a game ( <http://guardian.chtah.com/a/tBJ7J5lAY30QpAe9jDFAUYNccfT/fvr14> http://guardian.chtah.com/a/tBJ7J5lAY30QpAe9jDFAUYNccfT/fvr14).
