Nights out in Newcastle are often unpredictable. Not for Wolves. As the Sky Sports statisticians pointed out before kick-off, a draw was always the most likely outcome. Given the Toon’s torrid run of form, it’d be fair to view the result as a missed opportunity to get another three points on the board. But, in […]

Albion aside, the defeat that disappointed me most was Palace. The shellackings handed out by West Ham and Liverpool were bad days at the office, but the reverse at Selhurst was a spurned chance to build some much-needed momentum.

Palace are not dissimilar to us or the Magpies in that they’re bloody difficult to break down. Fortunately, we needn’t have worried. Though not quite a masterclass in game management – Palace […]
