Ex-Wolf Watch

Watch any keeper from that era and you'll see the same. The standard has increased considerably as has the expectation of what is saveable

Yeah agreed.

That's why I've gone from thinking Stowell was a very good championship keeper, to him looking like he could have saved 80% of what he conceded.

Finishing has also gone up significantly.
 
Probably the best goal I’d ever seen at Molineux until Neves against Derby.
 
We battered QPR in that game from what i remember, Corica looked really good too
We were superb, I thought it was finally coming together under McGhee. I was young, foolish and wrong.

Butch Wilkins played for them (just before he got sacked as player/manager) and he was still class. He was still just about 39, people didn't wear as well in those days.

Butch retired at the end of 96/97 (played a handful of games for Hibs, Wycombe, Millwall and Orient that season after leaving QPR - no-one can match 5 clubs in one season any more!), Bully retired in summer 1999.

Never really appreciated how good Wilkins was until he appeared for us in John Richards testimonial. He had so much time on the ball and was spraying passes for fun. I know it was a friendly but Moscow didn’t treat it as such.
 
I saw Frank Stapleton score a hat-trick for Blackburn against us. Around 90/91.
 
Nah, he was up front that day.

Think he played at the back when he was player/manager at Bradford a year or so later.

Yup... always known as the crab for passing sideways but in that testimonial game he ran the show and his forward balls were fantastic.
 
Just watched Raul score his trade mark pen for Fulham, it doesn’t seem right
 
It's Nuno vs Neves in the Saudi League tonight. Nuno's 3-1 up at half time.
