Wolves fans should be offered Spurs-style refund for 'embarrassing' 6-0 defeat

That's according to talkSPORT host Gabby Agbonlahor, who believes the club should take similar action to Tottenham Hotspur last week.

Wolves were obliterated at the Amex Stadium in their worst-ever Premier League defeat, leaving manager Julen Lopetegui stunned.

Deniz Undav, Pascal Gross and Danny Welbeck all bagged doubles in the rout, showing that Brighton have fully-recovered from their heartbreaking FA Cup exit.

But on the Wolves side of things, it was their worst day of the season, and former Aston Villa striker Agbonlahor drew parallels with Spurs' 6-1 loss to Newcastle that saw fans refunded.

"Wolves are on the beach, it was an absolute hammering," he said. "Brighton were outstanding, you've got to give them credit, but Wolves…

"Three Brighton players got two goals each. [Alexis] Mac Allister, [Moises] Caicedo and [Kaoru] Mitoma were all on the bench. Billy Gilmour started, he's not really played this season, but he started and did very well.

"Lopetegui's come in and Wolves have improved, they're so close to staying up now, why can't you give fans something more to look forward to next season? Finish the last five or six games off well and show them what you've got!"

In the aftermath the word 'refund' began trending on Twitter, with Wolves fans having to make a similarly lengthy trip from Birmingham to the south coast as Spurs fans did for their Newcastle hammering.

Agbonlahor summed up the mood, saying: "Fans have paid however much money to go all the way down to Brighton, hopefully they got an hour of sun if they left the game early - because it's a lovely day down there today!

"I think the Wolves fans should be offered their money back, 100 per cent. You can't be losing 6-0. You just can't, 6-0 away from home.

"Their worst ever Premier League defeat, that is. If I'm a Wolves fan I'd be standing by the coach after the game waiting for my refund.

"Give me the £50 it cost for my ticket, plus my travel, my expenses and my hotel, because it's not good enough!

"They haven't lost 6-0 to Man City where you can kind of hold your hands up because they're the best team in Europe - Brighton rested five players, three of their stars, and it wasn't just an unlucky 6-0, Brighton could have scored 12. Embarrassing."
