    Looks a tough fixture. Wolves will be free spending under Zenga, and probably top 10 with a good shot at play offs.

    That said, probably a good time to play them before they do all their business and settle. We've not lost to Wolves under Mick and I think we can get a draw out of this. ( Wishful thinking? ! ) 1-1.

    As for the team, Bru will surely come out perhaps for Douglas. IF we play Ward/ Grant out wide again then this may not be as bad as it sounds if we use the flanks properly. Skuse needs some form of help in there. I'd rather Teddy line up but feel Mick's very cautious about him having a season like the last.

    If anyone is going give me a shout, will be able to meet anytime before / during the game.

    We tend not to lose too many consecutive matches under Mick so I'm going to go for a classic 1-0 away win, bloody horrible and turgid match which we scrape through the skin of our teeth (and the worldy saves from Bart)

    Worringly, we are so threadbare already, so I'm not too sure how we'll line up. Something like this I would imagine...

    Bart
    Chambo | Webster | Berra | Jonas
    Douglas | Bish | Skuse
    Ward | Murph | Sears

    The bench will be pretty light on experience, but fancy us to get something out of the match.

    I would definitely drop Sears. Yes, gives his all, but lacking in confidence, goals and assists.
    MM has praised the young lads earlier in the season, so now would be a good time to bed them in.
    The likes od Blanchfield, McDonnel and McLaughlin should be utilised, especially as we are so threadbare, and are out of the EFL cup.
    I'd even be tempted to play with three CB's, but push Webster further forward as he looks very good on the ball.
    I'd go with;

    Bart
    Emmanuel, , Berra, Smith, Emmanuel
    Webster
    Skuse, Bishop
    Grant Blanchfield
    Murphy

    Yeah and that as well!

    I was thinking more of our players out of respect for Dalian.

    2-1 loss, but hope we can blood some Youth....more energy, zest, spirit, and fly the colours.

    Have to say that the Olympics are a terrific antidote to ITFC blues! Amazing performances, and 2nd in the table. Very proud of the whole team GB.

    Right Weighty, encouraging indeed, get the 1st goal and it will be massive boost to a sticking plaster team, and we will go and win this! Just dont ship one in on the re-start! Also gripped by our amazing Olympic cyclists, and the fabulous sprint team!

    Bart again producing a world class save.....still playing the ball,, COYB...lets nick this.

    Our season will get a proper kick-start if we take 3pts.

    Much better all round, and sets us up nicely for our feathered friends on Sunday.

    I wish all those going to the Big One a great day out!
