For a team which has registered the best start by any Championship club since Kevin Keegan’s Fulham waltzed away with it eight years ago, Wolves find themselves being damned with faint praise at the moment, writes Martin Swain.
Birmingham striker Cameron Jerome, in supporting his theory that Alex McLeish’s team were the division’s top dogs, gave a particularly lop-sided view of Saturday’s derby.
“Wolves have been flying but we played them off their own park,” said Jerome. “They will reflect on the game and be happy with the point.”
This merely continued a theme set by Matt Kilgallon up at Sheffield United where they are still bleating about Wolves’ 3-1 victory.
“If they are top of the league and 10 points in front, then we’ve nothing to fear,” said the Blades defender. “We just had no luck whenever the ball went into the box.”
A little harsh? I think so. Jerome appears to have erased from his recall what happened after an impressive Blues had taken the lead while Kilgallon conveniently fails to add that Wolves beat his team because they didn’t require luck when they got the ball into the dangerous areas.
But never mind. The sound of envy and churlish nit-picking should be music to the ears of Mick McCarthy and his players, confirmation that the leaders’ low-key approach on top of their swashbuckling form is paying dividends.
I think they’ve got ‘em rattled.
* Tony Mowbray maybe needs to be a little more careful with his comments after games during Albion’s current struggle.
One point and just four goals from the last eight games and an encouraging performance and winning position thrown away at Wigan is sure to flush out more critics of Mowbray’s bold vision for Albion’s long-term advancement.
I think it is a vision worth supporting and one which can pay dividends in the long term. In the meantime, the Baggies gaffer perhaps needs to be a little more careful with his post-match commentaries.
A little chip at Stoke’s style the previous week gave his old Celtic boss Lou Macari the invitation to aim a few barbs at his former central defender’s team, accusing Albion of deluding themselves into believing they are good enough to pass their way to safety.
After the crazy collapse to an outplayed Wigan, Mowbray lamented so many opportunities slipping his team’s grasp and admitted: “The best bet is to bring in two or three strikers and hope one of them falls good.”
That’s another half volley outside the off-stump for his critics, who will feel a little bit more than guesswork is required for Albion to start taking advantage of their fine football.

Blues out played us in the 1st half Sat but couldn’t score!!! in the end it took a long ball & slack defending to break us!!!
As for the blades!! Every time we attacked them they folded!!! So yes mate you should fear us!!!!!!! You can’t concede 3 goals like they did & say he don’t fear us!!!!
Is it me or does anyone else think that no one in football likes us????
Its like people don’t want us to do well!!!!

Sour grapes. On Saturday there is no doubt that Blues were the best side in the first half but they were the side that were glad when the final whistle went.
The facts are that all we need to do from now is win 1 in 2 and we are up! We will be better armed when we play Blues or Sheff Utd as we will have Jarvis back.
THE FUTURE IS GOOD, THE FUTURE IS GOLD!

I have to say, Jeromy is the epitome of everything WOlves are not.
He is a big time Charlie. Saying words like “the team to beat” and Wolves tried to play up to there high standards.
Please Jerome, get a room for you and your ego.
Glad to say Wolves do not have this attitude and that is why we will work hard and win this division.
You have a long way to go to catch us Jerome. I would keep quiet if I was you.
Stroll on our next fixture with you at a packed St Andrews. Oh sorry your massive club have not seen one of those for a while.
Personally I think Reading are a better team than you, but they too appear to lack bottle.
If I were you Jerome I would be looking over your shoulder rather than looking at us. We are gone and outta site.
See ya.

Right Midfielder Larsson unavailable on the morning of the match; Right Back Nicky Hunt injured during the first half to be replaced with a natural left sided midfielder(now which side did the Wolves goal come from?); Kevin Phillips suffering with nausea from the opportunities missed and having to be substituted at half time….
Yep! You’re right! Jerome does seem to have erased from his recall what happened….
And Wolves tactically took advantage of the Blues misfortune….
With Nicky Hunt and Larsson on the pitch, switching Keightley to the left side wouldn’t have been an option because it wouldn’t have made any difference - you still wouldn’t have got into those errrrm “Dangerous Areas”….

Dunno what jerome is talking about either. As soon as it went 1-1 there only looked like 1 team going for the win and that was wolves. This was summed up by the fact every time laik Taylor got his hands on the ball he was holding on 2 it for as long as possible just to waiste a bit of time. Unlike hennassey who played the ball out straight away!

9. Also unavailable were Johnson, McSheffrey, Parnaby, Kelly and O’Connor. So in the second half we had 8 unavailable. If Blues hadn’t lost Phillips and Hunt in particular, I’m certain we would have won the match.

It simply is not the case, either this season or any other,that Birmingham are perceived more highly than Wolves. Even if triumphs were long ago Wolves are still seen as a giant club, Birmingham as drab also rans.As for this season, in so far as that club and Shef Utd are concerned Wolves may or may not have had some luck but league positions do not lie. Birmingham may be promoted but that´ll have to be via the play offs for I feel Reading will accompany Wolves to the `promised land.

There is nothing more satisfying than hearing opposition players and supporters bleating on like this and making themselves sound such plonkers.
I think most Wolves fans were happy with a point; on the back of a hard fought victory at Sheff Utd, which left us struggling with various injuries and other fitness issues, we had a poor first half. But, Jerome and misguided bluenoses aside, I’m sure most observers would agree that we got into our stride following their goal, and the last 20 minutes was nothing short of an onslaught on their goal, and a winning goal would surely have followed had we been blessed with another few minutes play.
Still 6 points clear of them, 13 points clear of 3rd place, and smug grins intact!!!

Zulu Blue / Bluebird - the fact of the matter, injuries to both sides apart, is that you raised your game to play the leaders. All we’ve heard all season long is how dull you’ve been, churning out boring 1-0’s to the point where you can barely get 15,000 through the St Andrews gates.

Interesting to see that Cameron Jerome says that Blues are the team to beat and that they are the big scalp that ever other team seeks . This is the Mr Jerome that cannot get in a team that has 7 players aged 30 and over , a team that has averaged only 18,500 supporters at home this season , a team that has won absolutely nothing of any worth in its whole history . Yes Blues played well in the first half on saturday and they have a team who , by its very age , has a lot of premiership experience which our lads have not . However , they were the team hanging on by the skin of its teeth towards the end of the match and I know which team I would prefer to be supporting if at the end of the season both teams , as I hope , get promoted . Wolves had 11 players on saturday who were under 26 and an average age of less than 23 .We have 3 current England under 23 internationals , plus Michael Mancienne on loan , 3 full welsh internationals , 2 ROI full inernationals and 1 full scottish internationl . We have an average home gate of 23,500 and we have beaten both Blackpool and Coventry at home this season. Perhaps Mr Jerome should think before he speaks .

Wolves are a young team. Bluebottles mostly have premiership experience and it showed. Wolves tried to hard - played with their hearts rather than their heads. It showed and we did have a bit of good fortune which balences out the incredible bad luck we normally experience. However Birmingham have been incredibly lucky this season and especially with last minute one nil wins.
Birmingham saw Saturdays game as very important. They needed a win and they didn’t get it and the result was fair - although had we scored earlier I think we would have beaten them.
I did note that Stearman made the error that cost us a goal as he has done in earlier games. We’re doing fine. things look good. Birmingham I suggest you look behind you at Reading and forget about passing us.

To all Bluenoses - read the article that Mr Swain has written elsewhere in these pages. We have had the best start for a Championship side since Kevin Kegan’s Fulham team walked away with it eight years ago. To do that, you are not going to win every game 3 or 4 nil and we haven’t. There are times when you have to scrap to get that win when you’re not playing your best - we have. Face it, for a good portion of the game on Saturday our YOUNG team didn’t perform as it could against a team of so called Premiership hardened professionals. But hey, your battled hardened Premiership stars couldn’t beat our YOUNG inexperienced side. It’s something you’ve got to get used to ‘cos in maybe two years your side is gonna be using zimmer frames while our YOUNGSTERS just get better and better !!

Jerome was correct in his assertion. McFadden and Ridgewell’s goals should have stood, Phillips missed a sitter and Wolves were made to look ordinary for 60 minutes. Wolves were lucky Nafti had to play right back even then Jerome had another chance to win it after the equaliser. I don’t think Wolves have Blues rattled at all, on the contrary, I think the over-hyped Wolves are scared of Blues after seeing what they did to them with half a team. Still plenty of time for Wolves to choke.

Jerome, what an idiot, the table doesn’t lie and how can you say that the Blues are the team that everyone wants to beat. Maybe that’s partially because of stupid comments like yours. The team that everyone wants to beat is always the team at the top! Having been at Sheffield in the week and having been really up against it for most of the game, and won by the way, I would say that The Blades are a better team than the Blues, as are Reading who you still have to play twice and will get beat by. Again a case of not beating the Wolves at Bramall Lane and failing to recognise that they just did not put the ball in the net, hence the loss. Kilgannon and Jerome clearly share the same brain cell. Just an obsevation, but if the Blues are the team to beat, how come your own so called fans can’t even be bothered to turn out and watch you? Is it because they expect you to get beat? No doubt you’ll turn out when a real big team comes to play at the Toilet that is St. Andrews?

Personally, I’d like to thank Messrs Jerome and Kilgallon for their ungracious comments. If Mick hasn’t already done so, I suggest he pins the article on the dressing room wall. In fact, I’d welcome even more sour grapes, preferably from the whole spectrum of Championship clubs…Mick can post them on the walls, too. If ever the opposition were playing into Wolves’ hands, it’s with this kind of churlish behaviour. Swainy’s right: it IS playing into our hands. I can’t think of a better incentive for our beloved club to continue doing what they’re doing than to see Blues, Sheff Utd -and the rest- seccumbing to PRESSURE and ENVY.
Lads, you’re obviously doing something right or you wouldn’t be sitting pretty at the top of the table having scored goals galore. It’s not just the work ethic; it’s not just the stylish manner of football you’re playing; it’s not just the confidence you’re displaying….it’s the LEVEL HEAD you’re keeping.
Don’t change a thing, me Golden Babbies…you’ve got the oppo very worried and they KNOW IT.

The fact is that Blues don’t score enough goals and that’s why aren’t top. If Kevin Phillips was three years younger they would be flying but he’s reduced to a impact sub these days. He could not last 45 minutes last week.
For me, Reading are the more baffling team. They out played us at Molineaux and gave us a hiding and yet they have dropped points left right and centre. It’s astonishing that we have such a lead over them.
If we have ten million quid spare I would put in a cheeky bid for Doyle.
