I don't necessarily think it is about being less patient. Trying to take an impartial viewpoint, it seems to me that the differences in opinion stem from a range of things such as ambition, peoples interpretation of what constitutes "short-term" i.e. are people focussing on just the 5 losses in a row or trends going back through previous seasons, peoples perceived understanding (or lack of) of tactics and team selections. There is also the old age argument about people not being allowed to comment if they weren't at the match to see it in real life. I'd argue that watching it live on TV, with the benefit of multiple angles and replays, us television watchers are actually better placed to have an objective opinion uninfluenced by crowd reaction and other doomsayers/happy clappers sitting around us.
I'm with you though Paul. I've seen nothing in the past 5 losses (except for the ability to keep possession in the middle of the pitch) that suggests our coaches have any idea how to remedy the poor form. But more worryingly, I can't see any significant progress being made in terms of personnel relative to the teams that we are supposed to be competing with.

Got to admire Steve for sticking to his guns! We all want the best for the Wolves it's just that some of us are less patient or do not see things the way others do. Personally, I have seen nothing in the last 5 matches that gives me confidence that MM will turn this bad form around. However, it will be typical Wolves if they come out on Saturday and trounce Swansea 5 - 0! Cheers Paul.

Thought this post below was quite sensible as a riposte to those who think asking for changes is just being fickle: Five defeats in a row, surviving with just three minutes left of last season, baffling team selections, a refusal to drop poor players, one addition to a squad that almost fell back into the Championship... under the circumstances, I hardly think fans calling for a change are fickle. Norwich, Swansea, QPR and Albion look far more accomplished at this level, despite having less time to acclimatise to Premier League football. In three seasons, we haven't progressed. If anything, we're going backwards as we've lost all ability to defend or score (at least we were hard to beat during our first season back in the top flight) The information contained in this email is confidential.
