Jez Moxey: Spending millions won't guarantee Wolves survival
May 27 2009 by Lisa Smith, Birmingham Mail
WOLVES chief executive Jez Moxey has admitted no-one has a divine right to stay in the Premier League after seeing the demise of Newcastle United at the weekend.
And Moxey has vowed that at Wolves everything will be done to make sure the squad is strong enough to sustain the club’s new-found status which the players worked so hard for last season.
Moxey is also eager to assure fans that the club is looking at bringing in the experienced players it will need for its top-flight campaign come August but says no-one will be “shouting from the rooftops’’ about how the club plans to strengthen.
He said of the hunt for new players: “If you get it wrong, it can be a brutal business – we know that ourselves, having got relegated when we first went up six years ago.
“Newcastle’s situation proves more than anything is that it doesn’t matter how much money you throw at things, you can still go down.
“You can throw the kitchen sink at it and still get it wrong.
“Middlesbrough have spent a lot of money too – Afonso Alves cost them £13million and they have gone down and that just shows the enormity of the task we’ve got.
