[BBC]It is certainly not the season to be jolly if you are a Wolves fan.No league wins this campaign, no points since the start of October and no goals in any of their past five matches.It is the first season since 1983-84 that Wolves have failed to win any of their first 14 matches, while their current five-game streak without a goal is their longest since their debut Premier League campaign in 2003.After Wednesday’s home defeat by Nottingham Forest, Wolves have just two points from 14 matches this season, the joint-fewest at this stage of any top-flight season.If Wolves lose an eighth league game in a row against Manchester United on Monday, it would equal the club’s worst-ever run – set in 1981-82 – and would also guarantee they are bottom at Christmas.And a failure to take any points from their next two festive fixtures – at Arsenal and home to Brentford – would see Wolves equal Sheffield United’s Premier League record for the lowest points tally on Christmas Day (two, in 2020-21).”We don’t want to go out with a whimper,” said Rob Edwards following the Nottingham Forest defeat. It is a message his players need to heed, or some other unwanted records could come into view – including the lows of Derby’s infamous 2007-08 campaign.The Rams were relegated from the Premier League with just 11 points, in the worst season in the history of Europe’s big five leagues.Derby’s tally averaged out at just 0.29 points per game over the full 38-match campaign.While we are just over a third of the way through this season, Wolves are currently averaging 0.14 points per game.Carrying on at that pace would earn them just five points from 38 matches.
