JOSE SA had a face-to-face shouting match with Wolves fans after Sunday’s defeat to Burnley.
Vitor Pereira’s side are rock bottom of the Premier League with no wins in any of their nine games thus far.
A home clash against the newly-promoted Clarets was a golden opportunity to end that dismal streak.
But they ended up taking an agonising 3-2 loss thanks to Lyle Foster’s winner in the fifth minute of injury time.
Back-up goalie Sa didn’t even make it onto the pitch as Sam Johnstone played the full 90 minutes.
That didn’t stop a group of furious Wolves fans confronting him as he tried to drive out of Molineux.

And the Portuguese responded by giving as good as he got.
Sa screamed: “What can I do? Tell me! You think I don’t give everything in training and games?”
Nearby stewards tried to intervene as tensions threatened to boil over, but Sa insisted they were “just talking” and the row continued.
Asked who is to blame for the miserable results, he said: “It’s not only the players. When we lose, I go home and don’t speak to my wife. Do you know why? Because I am sad. We are playing s***.”

Some of the fans applauded Sa for fighting his corner and defending his team-mates.
The atmosphere around the West Midlands club is becoming increasingly sour.
Pereira, who was handed a new three-year contract last month despite losing four from four in the league at that point, had his own run-in with fans after the Burnley game.
The 57-year-old had to be restrained by players and staff as he bellowed into the stands.
Some fans chanted “sacked in the morning” towards Pereira, whose future is becoming increasingly uncertain.
