Premier League: ‘Lay off striker Stephen Elliott or face losing him’-Wolves manager warns fans Wed. January 09, 2008 10:04 am.- By Bonny Apunyu. - (SomaliNet) Wolves manager Mick McCarthy has urged supporters at Molineux to lay off striker Stephen Elliott or face losing him. The Republic of Ireland international came to Molineux last summer in a £750,000 move from Sunderland, where McCarthy first signed him from Manchester City when he was manager. His appearance as a replacement for Andy Keogh in the recent match against Sheffield United was greeted with a chorus of disapproval by the home crowd, which did not go unnoticed by McCarthy. He told the club's official website: "I am not sure it was all aimed at Stephen or a reaction to the fact that Andy was coming off. Maybe the fans were not aware of his chest infection. "If we are not careful we will be a man down - and a good one. I've seen it happen before but I never thought I would see it here. Not after last season and the support we had even we were 6-0 down to Southampton. "I sincerely hope he doesn't turn out to be a scapegoat. I have really felt for him. I hope it doesn't continue because it will affect him." -Eurosport News Category: Sports Latest Headlines Latest News Iraqi: Law maker killed in bomb attack ...
