Wolverhampton Wanderers manager Kenny Jackett has admitted that he is aware of fans' "anger" after the side extended their winless run to five games on Saturday.

The Midlands club lost 2-1 to Preston North End at Molineux to leave them 11 points shy of the Championship promotion places and 14 clear of relegation with 15 games of the season remaining.

"There's a lot of anger out there. There's frustration, I understand that," said Jackett after the game. "We're looking, all of us, for good performances and wins. I need to produce results. We have to make sure we come through this period of injuries to key people, the sides settles down and we go again.

"When we're poor and losing, crowds are critical, we have to take that and accept it. We need to put in improved results. That's the thing that will get people behind you.

"The players are desperate to win. Losing players to injury doesn't help with the flow of the team. The goals against column at home is very high. It's the eighth time of out 16 we've conceded two or more."

Wolves are next in league action when they travel to Huddersfield Town next weekend.
