KENNY SEES

SERGIO Aguero’s Christmas card list will not include referee Mike Jones’s name – and neither will Kenny Jackett’s after the official played a huge part in extending Wolves’ rotten run.

Jackett’s men led at the break as loanee Danny Graham opened his account for the club and ended Wolves’ month-long goal drought with a smart header.

“I didn’t think he led with his elbow at the time and having seen it again after I felt it was head to head, perhaps a booking for a mistimed challenge but not a red. He was definitely going for the ball.

“It took off a player on the day who was a big threat for us and changed the dynamics of the game.

“Our recent performances haven’t been good enough as well as recent results – but we had a per-
