Bruised foot my arse

Posted by Ben on 6th September , 2010

So the same paper that triumphantly declared that Steven Fletcher would definitely be fit for Wolves against Everton is now saying our record signing is a ‘big worry.’ Typical that the hideously inaccurate article is the one which got all our hopes up and the truth is that Fletcher is missing both of Scotland’s Euro [...]

Wolves to sign Marcus Bent on loan

Posted by Ben on 31st August , 2010

If Marcus Bent had brought Danielle Lloyd to Molineux with him after signing on loan, I’d be mildly excited as a Wolves fan right now. Unfortunately, the busty Scouser moved on to better things some time ago and is no longer with the Birmingham City reject. I’d have thought we’d have done likewise. The 32 [...]

Speaking hypothetically

Posted by Ben on 23rd August , 2010

Most hypothetical scenarios thrown at you and your mates usually end in some kind of consensus after a beer and a chinwag don’t they? When it comes to the Wolves, people can throw any proposition my way and I can swat it away like a Matt Prior cover drive. When I’m with friends, we all [...]

Keogh to go?

Posted by Ben on 17th August , 2010

I’ve only ever had my loyalty and love of the Wolves questioned on one occasion. That came on Tuesday August 18 2009 after we’d secured our first ever away win in the Premiership, courtesy of a faint Andy Keogh header in the far corner. For one fan, whose name I forget, it appeared to matter [...]

Don’t get your hopes up

Posted by Ben on 11th August , 2010

After trumpeting our summer signings, welcoming our wider pitch and assessing the dangers of Stoke City, we’ve all come to the same conclusion haven’t we? Wolves to win, possibly Fletcher to score, and 27,000 happy fans to skip home and freeze Ceefax on page 324! Georgie Thompson will shine like an angel on SSN. She’ll [...]

Wolves 2 Bilbao 1

Posted by Ben on 9th August , 2010

In a thoroughly enjoyable afternoon at the Golden Palace, our pre-season campaign ended as it began all those weeks ago – with an encouraging victory under our belts. But if there is one difference between the Bohemians and Bilbao wins, then it’s the increasing number of options Mick has to consider before the season starts [...]

Leeds 3 Wolves 1

Posted by Ben on 2nd August , 2010

What do Mick McCarthy and my two-year-old boy Arthur have in common? Both were balling and screaming at Elland Road for long periods, fidgeting in their seats and yelling at the bloke next to them for mercy. I got an earful from my little lad for packing him into the Family Stand with my Leeds [...]
