Wolves 2-0 Southampton: Verdict Thread

[Elephant Pyjamas]

Some interesting takes, particularly on our kit and club shop.

The people of Southampton are a strange bunch. Annoying fan base too. Moaned constantly even when they had a team with Van Dijk, Mane etc in it

 

[Wilf Wolf]

“Hwang is a key player and we’re missing him.” Tell me you don’t really know anything about Wolves…

Good that he’s highlighted the pit that is the SB stand.

I don't understand how people can enjoy games when they film pretend TV shows of the experience

I don't know why you'd (not you specifically) watch someone filming pretend TV shows, but I seem to be in a minority there

I pretty much refuse to watch anything where the thumbnail is of someone feigning shock and/or disbelief by covering their mouth with their hand.

A journalist apparently too...

However, if you were to just look at us v last season you would think we're missing him.

If you looked skin deep yes, but journalists should look a little deeper.

Of course.

Time to clamp down on timeout farce​

With Wolves in trouble and facing repeated attacks, José Sá dropped to the ground calling for medical attention, forcing the referee to call a temporary halt to proceedings as it is impossible to carry on with a goalkeeper out of action. While the Wolves No 1 took a rest and a man with a degree rubbed his leg for a few seconds, his deputy, Sam Johnstone, did not bother to warm up, an indicator that nothing was wrong. As the medical staff jogged across the turf, Wolves’s outfield players headed to the touchline for a huddle and instructions from Gary O’Neil as he looked to change tactics. It seems a ridiculous situation that teams get a time out on false pretences and the officials need to find a way to stop these quasi-farces because it slows the game down and offers an unfair advantage to the team plotting these breaks.

[Tony Towner]

It's fair, the only thing he hasn't pointed out is it happens most weeks.

 

[Kenny]

Pop down to Brentford, Mr Unwin...your head will explode in anger

 

[lemonjelly]

yeah, like it has never happened before. Southampton were notorious for it under Hassenhuttl. Brentford, as mentioned. Howes bournemouth were bad for it too. Indeed most teams tbf.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Arteta's Arsenal do it every week, but not with the goalkeeper, I admit.

 

[Elephant Pyjamas]

An outfield player would need to go off for 30 seconds. Obviously with the keeper that can't happen, it works perfectly, and it's been going on for a very long time under GON.

 

[sycophantia]

Every team does it, people only notice it when opposition do it andtheir team needs to crack on.

Everyone does it.
It must be the first lesson taught at vlog school.
The second is have a title something like "I stayed at the UK's worst hotel AND I WAS SHOCKED"
