Wolves Hit Premier League Nadir With Two Points From 18, Edwards Under Pressure

Bookmaker pricing now places Rob Edwards among likely departures, reflecting projections that threaten Derby County’s 11‑point record.

Overview

  • Wolves have the lowest points total at this stage in Premier League history with two points from 18 matches and a goal difference of −29.
  • Rob Edwards is winless in his first seven games in charge, with Wolves losing every match since his November appointment.
  • Based on their current 0.11 points-per-game rate, Wolves project to around four points over a full season, which would undercut Derby County’s 11-point low from 2007/08.
  • According to one bookmaker cited by Football Insider, Edwards is 7/2 to be the next Premier League manager to leave, with Nuno Espirito Santo the favorite at 9/4.
  • The schedule offers little respite, with a trip to Manchester United on December 30 and Manchester City to come, and Football Insider notes a pre–January 12 dismissal would exceed Bill McGarry’s 61-day mark for the club’s shortest reign.
