Wolves boss Mick McCarthy had the last laugh as his recalled first-choice players overcame Burnley 2-0 thanks to goals from Nenad Milijas and Kevin Doyle to move out of the Barclays Premier League bottom three.
McCarthy had come in for heavy criticism after fielding a virtual reserve team at Manchester United in mid-week to ensure his players were fresh to face the Clarets.
But any anger among the Wolves fans over that move was forgotten as Milijas and Doyle secured a third win in four matches for the midlands club.
