LAMBERT DEMANDS BRAVERY

PAUL LAMBERT has warned his players he will not forgive them if they go missing in today’s relegation showdown with Rotherham.

Wolves meet the Championship whipping boys with the Scot admitting his side must win for the first time in eight games.

And with the home crowd set to demand goals against a Millers side 19 points adrift of safety, Lambert

“You can talk about bravery in different aspects, whether it’s a tackle or being aggressive.

“But you also have to be brave by taking the ball when the atmosphere and the emotion of the game are there.

“I will forgive players who are trying hard but I won’t forgive them if they don’t try and take it.

“We’ve got to win. To get any success you’ve got to win the majority of your home games.

“This game is like that. We have to win the game no matter what.

“The stronger one will stay with it and that’s what separates footballers.

“The ones who are not as strong will need the stronger ones to pull them through at certain times.

“It needs big players to go and perform and I’ve got more than enough in the dressing room to perform.”
