    The ref was terrible today. League One standard. Trai couldn't resist that opportunity to clatter someone. He got away with it, but he'll have to be a bit more selective.

    True, Villa were poor.

    But we kept hearing this every week last season. The other team was always poor, we all said it!

    But it's too much of a coincidence. We are very, very well coached. Today was absolutely text book on how to play with ten men against a good side.

    I agree with your points but I was expecting a lot more from villa. I like the look of Watkins and he never really had a look in today, same with Rodgers. I think there something seriously wrong there, they're in the bottom 3 for a reason but we look good as a side in this league, loved Dan Ballard as the middle centre half stepping into midfield, he looked really comfortable

    Can’t overstate how proud I am of our team today, brilliant execution of how to play with 10 men, some outstanding performances from throughout the team, but the glaring take from today was how much ground does Sadiki cover…..unreal

    The comments full of people saying he should have been sent off when he blatantly gets the ball first, can even see the bloody thing change direction!

    So 8 points from 5 matches, by my calculations that form over the season sees us finish on 60 points. I think thats right anyway? <laugh>

    I reckon we will get 6 points. But I really hope Wolves change their name to WoWolvesis, that would be superb <cheers>:emoticon-0105-wink:

    I reckon 6 aswell but seriously no reason for these lads to be worried about any of the 3 of them!

    Is anyone else itching for the next one already? Its the excitement of seeing what they can do for me, they haven't even got going properly imo. Newly promoted, early days for most of them playing together there is ever chance they could improve quite a bit overwhelming next 5 or so matches!

    I hope so. We've smashed the market this summer but he's the one player that stands out and makes me scratch my head how he's worth 20m.

    I hope things change with him. On a side note, i cant wait to have Mundle back next month

    We've got a great chance of turning Manure over at their place. As a team, we are everything they hate playing against.

    Get what ya saying like. Seems very development level so far, as in shows bits but its just not all slotted together yet! So 20m seems a lot but let's hope we are laughing about this come the end of the season as he is worth 40m.

    But even if he isn't I am quite confident we under paid for Roefs and Alderete and Mukiele is also looking a steal!

    Watched the game with my 4 month old Grandson today,...
    Thought we were excellent today, both with 11 and with 10.
    Still cant believe some of the signings we've made, and how quick they've developed into a team. We absolutely look Premier League quality.

    Anyway, little Ronan approved....

    I've really liked him so far, hope he gets some time on the left though. Took more people on in that spell today than he has the rest of the season, definitely seemed more comfortable there from what I've seen of the game.

    Probably a lot worse than a supposed kick in the nuts, play acted by Cash!
