[Aikiwolf]

Two things...

He's not a Wolves fan?
Where does the Rioja come from?

1. Middlesbrough
2. Rioja is from Spain

Woah chill fam. You cheesin'. "Fam" is wavey.

(Why are we from Toronto all of a sudden?)

Why not fam, best city in North America.

All about interpretation if we were having the same conversation 6 weeks ago I’d say we’ve were in a battle. By the end of the season we’ll have finished so far advanced of the side in 18th and been effectively safe for almost 2 months.
A proper relegation battle is going into the final games still in jeopardy that’s been avoided by a mile this season.

You said we haven’t been in a real relegation battle. Six weeks ago we were so I’m not sure how winning four on the bounce suddenly means we weren’t. Our incredible form and the continued poor form of Leicester and Ipswich has meant the battle has been decisively won, but suggesting it wasn’t a real battle is rewriting history.

A lot of London/Tottenham slang is similar. Fam. Wasteman. Mans.

Aye, the web has globalized slang.

Back in Spoons. I guess never change a winning formula. I’m calling it now, once we have a bit of a loosing streak it’ll be “he should spend more time on the training pitch than in the pub”

Same sort of thing as 'Chablies'.

Er, we’re never losing again

So satisfying to beat Spurs - our bogey team in the 70s (and cause of such much heartbreak).

Fair to say now we're their bogey team ever since we got promoted in 2018/19 (won 7 out of 14 PL games).

Huge kudos to the job Vitor has done.

In total 32 games played so far:

GON P16 W2 D3 L11 F24 A40 Pts9
Vitor P16 W8 D2 L6 F23 A21 Pts 26 (that's 5 pts better than Ipswich over 32 games)

The comparison of results (and performance) between the 2 managers is quite stark.

Although it looks promising for next season I wouldn't trust Shi or Hobbs not to fuck it up during the off-season.

MOTD 2 coverage last night was a fucking disgrace. They spent more than 5 minutes talking about Spurs and barely gave Wolves a passing mention. Typical I guess.

First the points, then the pints. Vítor Pereira has enjoyed mingling with Wolves supporters in local watering holes and his mantra is working, even if another encouraging performance was lost in Tottenham’s malaise. Pereira could be forgiven for thinking towards next season given Wolves are 14 points above the relegation zone but asked whether his team are safe, his response was telling. “If I start to speak about being safe, I’m not ambitious, I don’t show my ambition,” he said. “I didn’t come to the Premier League just to work to avoid relegation.” Pereira, who replaced Gary O’Neil in December, has won half of his 16 league matches in charge and on Sunday will take a team brimming with belief to Manchester United. January signings Marshall Munetsi and Emmanuel Agbadou again impressed against Spurs, while Jørgen Strand Larsen, the focal point they long craved, has five goals in his past four appearances. Wolves fans will wonder where Pereira can take them.

From the guardian. Vitor clearly looking further upwards in the table. Good stuff.

I think its a sign of what is to come when Lineker is gone - he is at least a fan of a non big-6 team so recognises everyone else's biases.

I think it’s fair enough to focus on how shit they were when their mistakes basically gifted us 3 goals

A bit of balance would have been nice.

Tbf they said how good we were at the start but it was inevitable they'd bang on about how bad Spurs were, let's face it they're one of the 'glamour' teams and they were especially bad yesterday, several levels lower than Wolves under GON at their worst.
