FURIOUS BUST-UP: ROB EDWARDS IMMEDIATELY SENDS WOLVES STAR AWAY FROM TRAINING – FANS ALL AGREE WITH HIM.

In a dramatic start to his tenure as Wolverhampton Wanderers head coach, Rob Edwards wasted no time asserting his authority at the club’s Compton training ground. Just days after being confirmed as the new boss on November 12, 2025, following his controversial departure from Middlesbrough, Edwards clashed with a key Wolves star during his first full session with the squad.

The confrontation, described by sources close to the club as a “furious bust-up,” saw the 42-year-old former player and academy coach unceremoniously send the player away from the pitch amid raised voices and visible tension.

Details of the incident remain under wraps, but insiders suggest it stemmed from a disagreement over training intensity and attitude, with Edwards reportedly demanding higher standards from a squad languishing at the bottom of the Premier League with just two points from 11 games. The player in question – a high-profile “star” in the team’s lineup – was isolated from the group and instructed to leave the session early, signaling Edwards’ zero-tolerance approach to rebuilding the team’s mentality.

This bold move comes as Edwards prepares for his debut match against Crystal Palace on November 22, where the team desperately needs a spark to avoid an unprecedented relegation battle.

Wolves fans, already weary from a dismal start to the season and the sacking of previous manager Vítor Pereira, have overwhelmingly backed Edwards’ decisive action. Social media erupted with support, with one supporter posting: “Finally, someone with balls at the helm. If you’re not up for the fight, get out – Edwards gets it!” Another added: “All agreed, this is what we’ve been missing. Clean house, Rob!”

The incident has been hailed as a turning point, with many crediting Edwards’ deep-rooted history at the club – including stints as a player, caretaker manager in 2016, and U23s coach – for giving him the license to make tough calls without backlash.

Edwards, speaking in his first press conference on November 21, emphasized unity and realism: “We’re not burying our heads in the sand. The players are up for the challenge, and every session is about building belief.”

With injuries sidelining wing-back Rodrigo Gomes (hamstring), defender Matt Doherty (knee), and goalkeeper Dan Bentley (ankle), the pressure is on for Edwards to rally the available squad – now seemingly galvanized by his no-nonsense leadership.

As Wolves face a must-win home fixture today, this early show of steel could be the catalyst for survival. Fans are united: Edwards is the man to drag them from the brink.
