Boss Gary O’Neil feels Wolves fans still understand why they have struggled.
Sunday’s visit of Manchester City is likely to test that belief and Wolves could slip back to the bottom of the Premier League.
They have been handed a nightmare fixture list and next weekend’s trip to Brighton will mean they have faced seven of the top eight in their opening nine games.
O’Neil has been at pains to reinforce the context of the season and Wolves’ struggles but Friday’s press conference was arguably the first time he has fielded several questions about the future.
He remains confident Wolves will stay up – and said so – but that belief and unity which has has fostered since arriving last August will be stretched soon enough.
“There will be people who understand and there will be people who don’t understand and I’m sure are desperate for me to leave,” he said.
“I haven’t bumped into any yet but I’m sure they’re out there in their hundreds and thousands.
“That’s life. I guarantee that while I’m here the club will get everything I’ve got to help the team.
“I’m not worried about what then happens if it doesn’t work out – that’s up to people above.
“I will take care of my bit. The players are still absolutely desperate to give everything for the fans and the club and will continue to do so.
“We will keep fighting and when we do turn it around – because we will – it will be a really nice feeling to know we’ve had to dig really deep and gone through a tough moment and managed to come out the other end.
“You will have known who was with you in those tough moments and who wasn’t.”
