Edwards as well as O'Neil Among Wolverhampton Wanderers Managerial Candidates
Rob Edwards and Gary O'Neil each possess previous connections with the club

Edwards and O'Neil represent the initial names in the frame to succeed the former manager as head coach of Wolverhampton Wanderers.
Pereira was dismissed on the weekend after the squad's ten-game without a victory start to the Premier League season.
Furthermore both candidates - both of who have historic associations to the club - are part of the options to be considered by the club ownership.
Edwards is currently at Middlesbrough, which would create a potential obstacle to his appointment at Molineux.
Nevertheless the ex- Luton Town head coach - who played over a century of games for Wolves during his time as a player - is considered a leading contender for the vacancy.
The 42-year-old is said to have backing from the club directors as they begin the search of hiring a new head coach.
Gary O'Neil is also appearing as a surprise candidate, although he would be a shock appointment given he was released by the club in December last year.
The former West Ham United player is currently unemployed which means Wolves would not be required to provide any buyout fee.
