Kightly promises to fight inevitable

Caretaker manager Terry Connor’s fifth successive defeat was blighted by an astonishing stand-up row between skipper Roger Johnson and goalkeeper Wayne Hennessey.

It goes from bad to worse for Wolves. Michael Kightly has displayed all the battling qualities sadly lacking at Molineux to recover from a career-threatening injury, and is clearly on a mission to make up for lost time in the Premier League.

But the clock is now ticking on their season and it is surely seconds out after this damaging defeat leaves Kightly facing a return to the Championship.
