- When you haven’t won a game for six months & overseen the worst start in the club’s 148 year history, it’s perhaps best not to start having a go at the fans who are paying over -inflated prices to watch this shamblesVitor Pereira was dragged away in anger from the Wolves fans at full time as he went over to speak to them. Wolves are yet to win a Premier League game this season.
- That’s #Wolves mathematically safe with 5 games to play. Exceptional job done by Vitor Pereira. He seems really happy . It’s the club’s duty now to keep him happy
- Moyes ; “ Wolves were the better side, so im pleased with the point”
- It’s happened then. The first time ever , in the history of football, that a manager has left one club for another . A landmark day. No wonder there has been such hysteria in the national media #Wolves
- Coady rumbles a young fan who had his name on one side of a sign requesting his shirt ….. & Raul’s on the pther ! #hedgingyourbets #WWFC #Wolves #FACup
00:00 - Say what you want about The Beatles , but at least they knew how to defend a free kick
- Brief update on #Wolves ; Im told the plan is still to bring in “at least “3-4 new players , with the priority being the spine : CB, CM & CF. They expect the market to accelerate during July. Couldnt siphon any info on Neves, Adama or MGW. Not much, but it’s all i have
- Anyone used to buy “ The Pink” on a Saturday night? If so, which one did you get ; The Sports Argus/ Sporting Star or both?! Where did you usually buy it from & what & what are your memories of what used to be in it? 😃
- Great to catch-up with Tony Butler this lunchtime! He was genuinely moved when i showed him all of the birthday messages for him this week on social media & he asked me to thank each and every one of you... He may be 84, but he is still as sharp & as outspoken as ever !!
- A final word( from me!) on yesterday. In the last few days @Wolves have beaten Man Utd for the 2nd time in 3 weeks., spent £32m on a striker & played in an FA Cup Semi at Wembley!!! Gutted to lose? Yes, but this aint no Aldershot, Bolton/ Palace/ Norwich in the Play-Offs
