There’s no such thing as a ‘must win’ game at this stage of the season, but this one came as close as it can. It was also very much a ‘should have won’ game. In the first half Wolves played, on the whole, confidently and fluidly, were creating all the chances were only denied a [...]

Wolves 1-1 West Ham: No wonder Van Damme wants to go back to Belgium
Sunday, October 17th, 2010Punt-Bounce-Bounce-Peep: Wolves 1:1 Newcastle (Referee: 0)
Sunday, August 29th, 2010This was less a game of two halves, more a game of one referee. Without wishing to distract from the inadequacies of Wolves performance today, this game was stifled by a referee who lost control within the first ten minutes. Wolves were barely able to string three passes together all game, and the ref did [...]
Point’s the Point: Fulham 0-0 Wolves
Sunday, April 18th, 2010Another solid defensive display against an uninspired Fulham side. A large and loud Wolves contingent had filled the away end and taken over much of the ‘neutral’ Putney End of the ground, but in truth there was little in the game to get the pulse racing. But on a beautiful sunny day in south west [...]
Fair Point: Stoke 2-2 Wolves
Sunday, November 1st, 2009It’s beginning to look like the Hoddle days – all these draws. Of course nothing could be further from the truth, because Hoddle was bumbling around with an over-priced, over-paid team in the Championship, and McCarthy has assembled a lean Premiership outfit, albeit one still nervously close to the drop zone, with far less resources that [...]
Darn: Everton 1-1 Wolves
Saturday, October 17th, 2009How disappointing it is to have been right. (about the result, at least, if nothing else). On any other occasion a fine result, having so nearly taken all three points it was a blow to concede with only two minutes to go. Still, let us be content with a point and an assurance that Wolves [...]
Wolves 1-1 Hull
Saturday, August 29th, 2009I’ve taken a week out from the football and from my hectic schedule this week to do some charitable work amongst the needy. Here you can see me showing young Monty Magpie (somewhat depressed of late, despite a few lucky wins) what all this internet business is about. I firmly believe in education so I [...]
Wolves vs. Cardiff (2:2)
Sunday, February 22nd, 2009I can’t help feeling that Wolves should have won. Wolves faded slightly after a first half of squandered opportunities but at leaset I can enjoy the long drive to Molineux next week with a fair degree of hope for the rest of the season. Whatever the result, after recent games, and Burnley last week in [...]
Wolves vs. Sheffield United (1:1)
Friday, December 26th, 2008I was all dressed up in my festive finery, but, frankly, the football or the atmosphere in a sold out (and freezing cold) Molineux didn’t meet my expectations. The fact that Hennessey won Man of the Match tells you all you ne4ed to know about the game, after he pulled off a string of fine [...]
Wolves vs. Accrington Stanley (1-1 – 3-2 after extra time) LEAGUE CUP
Tuesday, August 12th, 2008Wolfie is so embarrassed by this result that he briefly passed out and has now started talking about himself in the third person. All credit to Accrington Stanley, but Wolves must do much, much better than this at the weekend.
