    Nope but just realised it's a re-run from earlier today.

    Good team Wolfsburg. They'll probably get back into it. I'll say 4-2 Bayern.

    The foreign commentators seemed to enjoy that far too much

    I didn't notice the commentary.

    Was it Portuguese by any chance? They probably see Wolves games as a national team match.

    Probably, it was the excitement in their voices that got my attention

    Not even any of your areas. You both took a wild guess and were out by miles. Typical Labour voter arrogance.

    Better luck next time.


    1935 Jarrow election results.

    Labour 20,324 - 53.1%
    Conservatives 17,974 - 46.1%

    The Conservatives won the 1931 election for Jarrow.

    If Conte misses more games I can see Spurs doing it too.

    I think Man U will be third as long as they dont have a bad run, maybe even second if Man City dont pick up

    Fourth looks like a battle between Spurs and Newcastle and a bit too much for Brighton yet

    I'm still a bit squeaky bum about it tbh. Our injuries, Casemiro's suspension and fixture pile up in 4 comps makes me uncertain we can keep racking up 3 points.

    can give most teams a game but the strength in depth

    I think we'll drop points over the next 2 games even though the home game should be a 3 point banker in 2 weeks time <whistle>

    If and it's a big If we manage to win league cup then I'd expect us to drop off further as European qualification will have been banked.

    Our starting eleven are able to give most teams a game but the quality drop off after the first eleven is shocking.

    I think you'll be fine. Ten Haag has without a doubt proven me wrong so far. Expected another Frank De Boer

    Klopp would be having a meltdown if he had those problems

    Way I see it, we're averaging 2 points per game. If we can keep that up we should be fine. I think that applies to yourselves or anyone else looking to get top 4 btw.

    And if the football TH keeps serving up is as good as it has been, I'll enjoy the ride right up to the last game of the season. It's been a long time since I enjoyed watching us play this much. We still lack a number 9 to really finish off our performances but it's still better than anything I've seen from us in a decade.
