well the korean FA arn't making their decision until saturday so nothing will be concrete until then.

McCarthy is doing great at wolves, i cant see them attracting any big name managers if Mick does decide to leave. He's doing very well this year after overachieving with them last season

Some christmas present for my dad, bringin him over to the Burnley game to see a manager-less wolves :P

interestingly enough, where does this leave Houllier for Irish job ?
I spoke to Kevin Doyle and Shane Long in a Dublin pub on Sat night and they said that Houllier is the Irish players choice for the Irish job.

this is one thing that reall drives me up the wall - why should players have any say in who their manager should be. same craic with the england job with the english FA consulting Gerrard and Terry. nonsense.

Wolves manager Mick McCarthy has ruled himself out of the running to become the new South Korea manager.

There had been widespread speculation over the future of the former Republic of Ireland boss after he and former Liverpool chief Gerard Houllier were said to be two leading contenders.

Korean Football Association spokesman You Young-chul had stated that it was a "50-50 decision" between the two men.

But following a meeting with club owner Steve Morgan and chief executive Jez Moxey, McCarthy has decided his future remains at Molineux.

McCarthy told the club's official website: "I was very flattered to be contacted and to be considered a candidate alongside someone of the calibre of Gerard Houllier.

"But I have always been committed to the job at Wolves. I love it here and, having spoken to Steve, I made it clear I'm staying.

Moxey added: "The board is delighted with the job Mike is doing. He is totally committed to the club, the players, staff, supporters and the task at hand.

"When you have such a high quality manager there is always going to be a chance that someone else will be interested in signing them, but we are pleased to confirm to our supporters that it's business as usual at Molineux."

Houllier had earlier told Sky Sports News that he too was not interested in the vacancy.

The Korean Football Association must now continue their search to find a successor for Pim Verbeek, who left his post in July.
