    January Transfer Window, 25/26 Season

    A £200 reduction was exactly the conversation [agreed number] that we came up with in the pub after the last game. Unless lemonjelly is someone I know in person and not online and it was the same conversation!

    Replacing players that don't want to be here with ones that do, will have more of an effect than their ability or lack of. Hopefully JSL and Agbadou's deals go through and there is an improvement as a result in squad attitude. It can't all be done in one window, but I think we've at least made...

    General Wolves News

    Only found out today that ‘new’ Shi has been operating at the club for months before he was unveiled. Whilst he is keen to stress that Jeff is no longer involved ‘at all’ he’s hardly the new broom. The chaos of VP and Jeff’s summer window hasn’t been addressed as there still is no footballing...

    Rocks for brains. Get caught and then doubling down on the lies.

    I think Alan was referring to the fact that his road number in Charlotte is the same or similar to the road name/number in Minnesota where it happened. Eerie but about 1,000 miles away. Unless I'm wrong and Alan has moved?

    I don't know Quirk and I don't know Celtina, but I do know this stuff isn't necessary. And certainly for me is the reason why there aren't a wider number of posters contributing to the forum as a whole.

    January Transfer Window, 25/26 Season

    In paragraph one you say 'it’s nothing to do with expectations being higher, tickets being expensive, salaries being higher, the invention of social media or whatever' which is a take on my offering as to why expectation are now raised as to players performances and then in your fourth and fifth...

    January Transfer Window, 25/26 Season

    I think traditionally that the Wolves crowd has always been 'fair' in general and effort alone has often been the most appreciated attribute. As the underdog and very often a second tier team, fans seemed to know our place, accept that we weren't dining at the top table and so recognise the...

    I last saw him a couple of years ago. He was still then

    Mutch and Dennison's Wolves careers pretty much coincided as did their retirements. Mutch is a builder back in Southport so both have had to work again. Andy Mutch even got one year of PL money.

    I never saw Peter Knowles play as he was before my time, so have no reference point, but his size on that picture surprises me. I'd always, clearly wrongly, assumed he was small in stature.

    I think Napoli are a bit like Sevilla [or what Seviila were] in that whilst they do buy at decent amounts, they often sell those same players incredibly well. McTominay and no doubt Hojlund (possibly Mainoo next) will be similar I'm sure. In summary it's what we are trying to achieve, we just...

    Wolves Internationals

    If we, and it appears as though we will, continue with a back five then Santi keeps his place for me. He’s calmer, more organised and a better fit alongside Krejci and Mosquera. Even moreso if R Gomes starts at RWB as Santi talking and holding a shape (Yerson is so much more disciplined with...

    Wolves v Shrewsbury Town (FAC 3)- 10/1 Build Up and Match Thread

    Had a fairly intimate lunch at Molineux once with with Peter and Norman Deeley. Both absolutely charming, great friends and perfect gentlemen. Norman was a character and Peter much more straightlaced but both loved stories about how they got one up on Stan Cullis and had a beer [singular] where...

    I know the Aussie attack is seriously depleted [it has been all/most of the series] but who’d have thought that “sensible’’ batting would be the best way to play in a test match! Ironically we have still scored at nearly five an over, almost the same as having a big BazBall heave each over and...
