Saturday 10th February 2018
3pm Kick off

Location; Molineux Stadium - 2h49 from headquarters by train, or 138 miles if you fancy the drive.

History;
v Wolverhampton Wanderers
Games won: 16
Games drawn: 16
Games lost: 18

It seemed mid January that potentially Ollie's days were numbered after two disappointing results saw us lose convincingly at home to Boro and then away to Bristol City, but a win to start February against Barnsley has brightened the mood on this board, and generally people seem less eager to see Ollie gone asap, the debate continues. Wheeler is out, and will remain so for the rest of the season after ankle surgery and Grant Hall has been ruled out with a knee injury for the rest of the season. In more encouraging news, Wszolek made it through 90 minutes last weekend, and Paul Smyth, who has impressed so far, should also be available again.

Wolves remind me a lot of us in 2010/11, as they lead the Championship by 11 points, and are looking nailed on for promotion. Jota (who I feel always scores against us) and Bonatini both have 12 goals each this year, with Cavaleiro not far behind with 8 goals. Our top scorers are Matt Smith (6) and then Washington (5), which says all you really need to know. Ruben Neves has been an inspired addition to the squad since joining for around £15.5 million in the summer. He has massively contributed to Wolves' success, and crushing his creativity will have to be a big part of our game plan on Saturday. A win would put Wolves that bit closer to promotion but you know what, a win in the Black Country for Rangers isn't unheard of;

Yeah.......why isn't Nines doing these anymore? <whistle>

Obviously I expect nothing from this game with Wolves Champions elect. In a way it will be nice to sit back, without worrying about what team has been selected and what formation Ollie's gone with etc etc. We can only hope that a Wolves player does a knee high challenge and gets sent off early on.

Won't that just make it slightly worse when we still lose?

Stupid Wolves memory...

For some reason aged about six I was taken to a League Cup second leg which I think we won but lost the tie overall. **** knows a.) how my dad convinced my mum I could go and b.) why anyone wanted to go.


Just found it as it was 1997 first round. We lost the first leg 2-0. Utterly bizarre.
 
It’s a free game . More pressure on them than us . Just hope we don’t adopt ollys usual away tatic of 5 at the back .

It’s a free one so let’s hope we have a go rather than sit back for the inevitable.
 
I was there when dichio scored. My dad and I drove up in some huge early 90's white Volvo, felt like diving a small ship.

I predict an away win, with goals from Robinson and Washington. No logic was used in the creation of this prediction.
 
Didn't we do them 3 nil or 3-1 or something a few years back at their place? I went with my Wolves supporting mate. Barton taunting the home fans as I recall

Seems aeons ago now in my rapidly fading memory but probably wasn't

A win away etc

One of these could well score; while the other one has absolutely no chance. I think you know who I mean!

Yep 3-0....and a bit of chat between Barton and Henry (then at Wolves) too
 
Seems to have been at the cinema recently? :)

So have I. A very enjoyable film.

Yes excellent film that seems to set the truth correctly imo... it was a shambles yet we were all raised on the belief it was all planned it was in fact the chaos my grandfather told me about.

No wonder he was ousted after the war
Says a lot
