You may think Wolfie got the picture wrong here and that the focus should be on the game and not him.  He doesn't see things that way.

As I emerged blinking into the Wolverhampton sunshine after a week of overcast skies in ‘The North’, I was delighted to see Wolves put on such a dazzling display.  It doesn’t get much better than this (although Wolves could have scored more) – top of the table and scoring freely.  Kightly and Jarvis again stood out on the wings but this was, especially in the first half, a stunning team performance.  Forest may have lost their way after the first goal, but that’s because Wolves never really let them find it.  Michael Kightly says that the team is ‘hungry’.  This does seem a little sad (do we need to have a word with the chef?), but if this is the result, I for one won’t be sending them any food packages.

Stephen Ward made an even odder choice for left back than he did as a winger, but well done to him for putting in a creditable display in the circumstances.  With the international break we’ve now got two weeks to benevolently smile down on the world from the top of the league.  See you at Charlton.
