McCarthy believes the stability around the club has helped Wolves recover from being bottom of the table with recent shock wins over Liverpool and Chelsea. The former Republic of Ireland boss is on a one year rolling contract at Molineux.
Club owner Steve Morgan and chief executive Jez Moxey have already backed McCarthy while other managers in a similar position in the Premier League have been under pressure. When asked if he would be at Wolves long-term, McCarthy said: "That is what I believe. It helps with everyone, the stability of the club. I know what it is like when your future is supposedly in the balance.
"When I was at Sunderland, some clever person at the club arranged a poll of the local paper asking 'should Mick go' and it turned out 60-40 in my favour. That didn't help. Here the support has been there from everyone. I've been backed by the fans, the club has as well.
"It's just a good feeling around the place. It's not getting fragmented. I'm sure there are a few message boards and phone-ins but you turn up to our games and the fans are fantastic and behind me and the team - and in and around the town they are."
McCarthy added: "It (the stability) has obviously done us good because we were bottom, dead and buried a few weeks ago and now we are fourth from bottom and it looks a lot healthier. Maybe that is reward for supporting the team, the manager, the club. It is not fragmented and no-one is talking about me losing my job which has never been uttered."
