All other clubs follow a similar formula so only the very best kids ever get a chance. To be fair though most fans would rather pay £3m for Hunt and stay up then play kids and get spanked by teams like Man City who can pay £30m for a single player!

However Halford and Mancienne were the worst two players on the pitch that day. I'd almost forgotten how depressed I got after that Blues game! Thought we were definite relegation fodder at that point! I wouldn’t say he was the scapegoat against Blues – the whole team was cr@p!

Surely we only got him for his long throw after seeing Stokes success? Little did we know that his all round play would be so terrible! A winger with no pace and no tricks?

Probably a better full back but i'd like to see him tried in the holding position in front of the back four, a natural defender with good distribution. As far as the youngsters are concerned, as i live not far away, i went to see them at Newport last Friday. They were well beaten on the night by an impressive looking Conference side but Batth looked a solid player and Zubar's younger brother also looked fairly promising. The stand out Wolves player for me though, and the one most likely to make the step up, was Scott Malone.Not much chance at left back at the moment though. The highlight of the evening, without a doubt though, was watching the performance of our giant overaged centre forward, the Hoff, which is difficult to find an adjective to describe. Pointless is probably the nearest i can get, nothing much to do with what was going on around him. Very much a personal thing. It was a bit like watching competitive dad but without the competitve bit. Quite sad really.

I think we are in for a rocky road this season, and need to hope that our key players remain injury free.

Now, we populate the team with millions of pounds signings, some pay off...Doyle...others don;t... Hoff . Now if I am the Manager and spent 3 or so million on Hunt, I'm going to look pretty silly in playing Hemmings instead....so... the kid won't get a chance. I often wonder why we have an academy.They either end up injured or sold to some lower league side.
