    That's an interesting possibility.

    Well, the first match thread was unconvincing but there has been a much better quality of finish with this one. The bar has been raised- so presumably the ball glances off the underside and into the net this time.

    So everyone pretty much is up for selection.

    It's the Midlands Massive's (well the retired part of it) first game of the season so hoping we aren't too keen to play a B team otherwise we will loose as Wolves are a good outfit and very confident

    IDENTITY THEFT

    Identity theft is not a victimless crime. It can cause stress and worry to anyone affected. No one can be completely safe from this and victims can be randomly chosen without any obvious reason. If anyone has any leads on who has recently taken over jonny shuttles posts please contact crimestoppers. Good stuff again jonny.

    Back to the football I don't think Austin does need the game time and wouldn't start with him, keep him fresh for Saturday. Pied, targett and hojbjerg and claisse should all start.

    That's a very young side, good to see the next generation pushing through now at this level

    I'd guess for tomorrow

    McCarthy
    Pied
    Bednarek
    Yoshida(c)
    Targett
    Clasie
    Hoijberg
    Ward-Prowse
    Boufal
    Redmond
    Austin

    Not sure he is suited to a wide berth, perhaps we will try a front two for this. Then switch him for Redmond

    I'd say Long played his best football for us coming in from wide right

    Don't want him anywhere near the squad.

    Quite looking forward to this one despite (? because) the wholesale team changes expected.
    Wolves, even if they also rotate players, will be no pushovers. Also they're Mrs G's team so a little bit of friction in the house but I'm sure love, and Saints, will win through.

    Mauricio talked of Lemina not being match ready after missing our preseason....presume he was crocheting and doing watercolours at Juventus...so would he have rested him for this game or decided another run out would do him good. Academic now as I presume they will want to let his leg heal

    Oh I do! It was my son's first away game, aged 5. We were rubbish. Yes, I said "rubbish"... for the first 30 minutes anyway. I remember sitting there hoping we'd hang on to a 0-0 in the first half because Wolves outplayed us. Then, bang, bang, bang, a penalty save and 3-0 up at half time.

    That night we stayed at my Wolves ST holding mate's house. Great night!!!

    Am I going out on a limb (tree reference esp for Fats) suggesting I seriously doubt the result will be the same on Wednesday?

    The score may be the same but remember we are the home team this time!
