I'd like to see the step over played near the edge of the penalty area from a corner and for the player behind to wallop it in the net. Steve Stoutt was the last I saw do it perfectly... and then it got disallowed off memory.

We tried that for about fucking 18 months with Thommo hitting it. Never worked, not once.

We tried that against Ipswich in the FA Cup replay, and a few more times around that time.

I conflated that memory as being how Thompson scored, Dan corrected me of course

Fucks sake - as if by magic

 

[Jack Regan]

We had a corner routine with Scott Golbourne under Jackett which worked a few times if I recall correctly. Not sure how teams fell for it as it was the only time he took corners and it always meant we were going to the same well.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

I'm also convinced that after Paul Cook scored straight from a corner (Brighton away, 1991ish?) he kept trying to do it afterwards.

Nope, not happening.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

We loved a near post flick on off a corner when Sid Cowans signed. Was quite effective for a while too.

Baz Douglas is the best corner taker I've ever seen at Wolves. Lethal.

Cough, cough.

I suspect we've had this conversation before but I have a memory of Cook scoring at Molinuex direct from a corner.

Definitely Brighton away he did it (and Mike Small scoring against us!). Also featuring mulleted USA keeper from Italia 90 Tony Meola and Ray Wilkins' brother.

Is Bull off, Paskin on the biggest immediate downgrade in quality in Wolves sub history?!

I don't remember one at home but I could be mistaken. I bloody remember him trying.

Sorry Sniffer, it was you wasn't it! I've got so used to DW doing it, I'd forgot it was you on this occasion.

I think @Sniffer hates/hated Thommo on the level that I hate Doherty

 

[Dire Wolf]

3-0 winners over Bristol City in a behind closed doors match at Compton. Cunha, Hwang and an OG. No idea of the line-ups.

 

[Lupo]

OG

Thought he'd be having an extended break after the Euros

 

[WVWolf]

First half 11: Bentley, Lima, S Bueno, Toti, H Bueno, Cundle, Lemina (C), Bellegarde, Cunha, Chiquinho, Guedes (Chirewa 30).

Second half 11: King, Doherty, Mosquera, Dawson (Lonwijk 107), Ait-Nouri, Hodge, Doyle, Sarabia, Hwang (C), Gomes (Hoever 109), Strand Larsen.



From that, no Podence, and Rodrigo Gomes going off early which probably isn't good. Dawson had been eased back last time out.

 

[YoungWolf]

Blimey Guedes played half an hour

My guess if Dawson they only wanted to do about 45 (looks like they did two 60 minute games).

Captain Hwang!!

Do you have to serve a suspension if you get sent off in a club friendly , like our man Dan P ?

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Depends if the FA charge you, it hasn't happened here, that isn't why he didn't play (I don't know why he didn't, just he definitely wasn't banned)

Highly unlikely in this instance but a ref can put a report into the FA and they can ban a player.
