Terry Connor insists he will not quit Wolves

Wolves boss Terry Connor today insisted: "I'm no quitter" to smash the wild rumours that his short reign in charge could end early.

Connor was happy to flatten speculation that he had decided to walk away just three games into his 13-match assignment to keep Wolves up.

A tabloid story, suggesting the board were considering axeing him after picking up one point in his first three games in charge, fuelled the rumours.

But the 49-year-old, who has been told he is at the helm for the rest of the season, shot down talk of his reign ending prematurely. "They're obviously people who don't know me, or they don't know anything about Terry Connor," said the boss.

"I've been here 13 years and I've never quit have I?

"I don't know where people got that idea from, but it couldn't have been anyone who had any remote idea of what I'm like."

Connor insisted his sole focus is to lead Wolves to Premier League survival.

"I just come to work and get on with it," he said. "I know where I am and I know what I've been asked to do so all that doesn't affect me one iota.

"I focus on my job and my job at the moment is to make sure we stay in the Premier League.

"Until someone tells me differently, that's what I'll be doing."

Connor added: "In a nutshell, I'm just concentrating on these 10 games.

"Everything else is on the periphery and on the outside – it doesn't really have any great concern to me."

Connor also warned fans demonstrating are hurting everyone in "the Wolves family", not just scapegoats Steve Morgan and Jez Moxey after 300 fans protested after Saturday's 2-0 defeat to Blackburn.

"If the fans think that banners and stuff helps the players, then that's what they'll do," he said.

"But if you have a go at one person at the football club, you're having a go at the whole family.

"All I know is that we're all in it together. We're all the same – we're all Wolves.

"You have to ask the question: 'is it beneficial to the team and to what we're trying to do?'."

Meanwhile, Karl Henry has been ruled out of Sunday's game with Manchester United.
