I have never experienced this situation, none of us have experienced this before. It’s a mess. So much is going on, we cannot clearly know what is going to happen. Let’s wait. Me and the players are only focused on our task. It’s very important we have the decision sooner, it’s better for us and the competition so it doesn’t create confusion, confusion and uncertainty as this is what we are experiencing now. It’s always there. What we try is to put it away from our focus. But it is there.
They are a very good team, it’s been a fantastic job from Gary O’Neil. They are a tough opponent but we are ready for the game. Every game, especially in the situation we have, we always play for the three points. Sometimes it’s not possible but it is a very important game. All the games in the Premier League are so hard you cannot minimise the difficulty of your opponent. Wolves are a good team but at the City Ground we have been playing well. We will try. It is a vital game for us.
Chris Wood doesn’t have an issue on that. He has been there before. Missed chances happen, that will not impact his performances. Taiwo Awoniyi and Willy Boly remain out along with Nuno Tavares. Taiwo is starting his individual programme. He is closer and hopefully can help us this season.

Manager on Wolverhampton…INJURY REPORT
Hwang Hee-chan is in the matchday squad for the first time since the end of February following injury, while Rayan Ait-Nouri is also set to be involved.
…ABOUT THE MATCH
The game against Forest will be incredibly tough. When I look at the depth they have and the money they've spent, it's a real surprise that they are where they are.
…VAR
You can really feel it nationally really. Across the whole league there's been a lot of frustration or disappointment around some of the decisions and the way the season has gone with VAR and other bits and pieces. That's not to say it's all bad. There have been some good calls and things that have definitely helped. But not only at Wolves, I would say there is a desire from everybody for the standard of it to improve and I'm sure that goes for the people in charge of it as well.
…LOSES
I don't blame anybody else or credit anybody else for our league position apart from us. I'm sure there will be many clubs that claim they could be higher without certain decisions.
