Bring it on....

I’ve had some terrible days there, including the 3-2 with that Donovan goal. Went once when they were on a massive losing streak and then drew the game with us, miserable game and I think they missed a penalty, what year was that?

Jan 96
 
I've only been to the Hawthorns twice, the Bully last minute winner in 89 and the Hindmarch equaliser.

Maybe I should start going again!

I've been 6 times I think W1D2L3. Not been since we lost 2-0 at night in the late 90s, think Kilbane scored one of theirs from outside the box

If it was Kilbane then I reckon that was a Sunday lunchtime. Nov 98. We gave Colin Lee the job permanently on the morning of the game.
 
Twice for me

The Bully last min winner
and the 3-2 defeat on a Sunday.

Must have been after that then pretty sure the last time I went was a midweek night and we lost, unless my memory is playing tricks

Mar 95 was midweek

So was Oct 00 when Peacock gave away a pen and Ryan Green got sent off
 
I’ve only been once for the Play Off semi final 2nd leg and it was a really unpleasant experience. I wouldn’t bother going again and I don’t particularly enjoy the atmosphere at the home games either.

The rivalry should be more about banter rather than outright hatred IMO. It’s a game of football. If it means that much to you to hate them then maybe you should question your priorities in life 🤷‍♂️
 
Only one game for me - a terrific 3-3 draw way way back in February 1970 (a birthday treat from my Dad).
 
My first game I don't remember that much around the game.
2nd one, I was on the Cannock Wolves coach and we had to sit for ages on a car park as Albion fans walked by and that was too much for some who decided they needed to be taught a lesson and have their heads smashed off cars etc....which of course delayed our departure even more.
 
Thanks, it'd be Oct 00 then, means 7 W1D2L4

I was living in Manc then. Clashed with a United CL game but talked the landlord of my local into sticking it on a screen in the back room. Me and one solitary other Wolves fan who obviously lived nearby but I'd never seen before and never saw again.

Lee had the genius idea of playing Robert Taylor up top on his own (think Grabban vs Sunderland at Molineux under Nuno) after the red card. Amazingly we didn't look much like equalising.

I was at Uni in Preston when we beat them 3-1 at home in 2001. Likewise, I managed to get the game put on the TV in one of the local pubs and was the only person in there celebrating as George Ndah took them apart!
 
All my brothers and dad were albion fans, as was my wife when i got married. Obviously there was always a derby day rivalry, but in a wind up way, not a hate thing.
I like a good derby day, but in my faded recollections they rarely go to form.
 
Been there three times.

96/97 - 4-2 Iwan Roberts

99/00 - 1-1 Akinbiyi for us.

06/07 - 0-0 Gera missed penalty

My dad chose Wolves as an act of childhood rebellion against his Albion supporting family so there's usually plenty of friendly banter. There was a time (in my 20's) I'd be frothing at the prospect but same as when we play Millwall or such like the police presence is oppressive and it damages the enjoyment of the day when you can't move freely or have a beer before the game.

Always the coffee shops I guess ;)
 
06/07 - 0-0 Gera missed penalty
07/08 :D

Robinson did Kightly near the end, raked his Achilles. Barely played again all season. Horrible fat bastard.

We lost 3-0 there in 06/07, they still had borderline PL players right through the team and we were playing the likes of Jemal Johnson.
