A winter break is a strange thing for us British football fans to be navigating. What is this soulless vacuum of football that we have to endure for a fortnight? What must we do with our weekends? I mean Brexit has obviously put paid to the notion of watching any of the European football … Continue reading Taking A Leaf

A Missed Opportunity
They always said there was something about Molineux under the lights. I always took it with a pinch of salt to be quite honest. I mean when I think about midweek floodlit matches I actually immediately spring to the likes of Wolves 0-4 Barnsley and Wolves 0-1 Wigan, possibly the worst game of football in … Continue reading A Missed Opportunity
Arrivederci Patrick
Fare thee well Patrick. We hardly knew ye. A six-month jaunt in the West Midlands, three goals, a handful of minutes and a rather catchy tune is all Patrick Cutrone will be able to take with him as he heads to his homeland, if not his actual home. There were high hopes, of course, but … Continue reading Arrivederci Patrick
2019 – The Year of the Wolf
Christmas and New Year is a wonderful time of year, especially for us football fans. Game after game, a whirlwind of goals, action (and VAR of course) bookends the annum in the most festive way. What it doesn't allow is ample opportunity for those of us looking to pen our thoughts on the action before … Continue reading 2019 – The Year of the Wolf
Wolves Earn Their Spurs
Football can often throw up a bitter pill for us to swallow. As fans of Wolverhampton Wanderers, we've gotten used to the idea of taking our medication and simply trudging on in the circle of footballing life, ready for the next disappointment, show of mediocrity or false dawn. Many of us will be suffering the … Continue reading Wolves Earn Their Spurs
Block A-14, Row 28, Seat 22
Go to Braga, they said. It would be an incredible experience, they said. And they would be absolutely bloody well right. A lot has happened over the past few days, a lot of which I simply couldn't encapsulate into a single blog post. But it's safe to say my first European adventure with Wolves will … Continue reading Block A-14, Row 28, Seat 22
Wolves Pop Their Cherries
A welcome teturn to domestic action. The frequency of international breaks can be a frustrating thing, most certainly when likely to disrupt a good run of form, such as the one we've been on. We've gotten used to our players being summoned to all corners of the globe now, but Nuno makes it abundantly clear … Continue reading Wolves Pop Their Cherries
Back In The Groove
Is it just me, or was this all just a little too comfortable for a derby day win? You know how you should be feeling. The jangling nerves, the desperation with which you scream your head off as if you're impacting each pattern of play with your own vocal chords. The total, utter negativity with … Continue reading Back In The Groove
Arsenal, Wolves & Creature Comforts
On the face of it, it was all much of the same. Going behind in the first half, equalising in the second. But in reality, this was a night and day turnaround in performance levels, nicely facilitated by the team from the Emirates. This was our third fixture against Arsenal since our return to the … Continue reading Arsenal, Wolves & Creature Comforts
Aston Villa (A) – The Debutants*
In the aftermath of last night's game, it appears a lot of the commentary seems to have skirted around the 90 minutes of football that was actually played, so I'll take it upon myself to offer some kind of thought on what was laid out in front of us. Expectations were low once the … Continue reading Aston Villa (A) – The Debutants*
