You heard it here first. Steve Morgan is selling the Wolves so that he can try to raise the other £349,999,990. to buy Liverpool. Assuming the club’s still worth what he paid for them.

Kent wolf.
Sorry. I should have had more faith, especially as I’ve recently had a go at the idiots that come on here ruining the site by pretending to be someone else.

4 The Real Bully:
No problem mate, I’ve got broad shoulders & can take it.
Now if only the rest of my body was as fit…..lol
terrywalsallbaggie:
I miss going to games.Finances will not allow me to go to as many as I would like & to get across London on walking sticks using the Underground is something I would not recommend.
WBA to go up as Champions
Wolves, hopefully via the play-offs.

Good win on Saturday but to convince the fans who have not been happy and I am one of them, 2 more successive wins is what’s needed now to kickstart the season, anything less and we will be struggling to catch the teams ahead of us.
McCarthy finally changed the team around and became more attack minded and it paid dividends didn’t it? If this had been done some months ago, none of the clamour for his dismissal would have happened but Yorkshire people are stubborn by nature and he is no different!
So 2 more successive wins for me and I will be more positive, until then I remain “sitting on the fence”!

I heard a rather startling rumor on saturday from a pretty reliable source (the horses mouth) that a certain Mr Neil Clement has his agent trying to tie up a loan deal with the dingles until the end of the season, or for at least a couple of months to get some match practice.
Id sooner he go out somewhere else to be honest, but as long as he can get a few games under his belt, ill be happy with that!
Just dont get too excited wolves fans, you wont be keeping him!!
Up the Baggies!!
Boing Boing!

1we8wba Agreed we could do with using DJ and Charlie Mulgrew – We dont understand why MM wont give Mulgrew a run or DJ? NB* Must be carefull or Dopey D will be after us for “dissing” MM! ;-)
We hope that MM keeps the “attacking” style he used Saturday as the 8 man defence doesnt work and we dont want to see a return to that again!
We won on Saturday Whoppeee Nil Two Nil Two Nil Two (NB* We played away so thats how the score should look!) Is Mick a Magician – NO

cautious optimism, has mick seen the light and realised a balanced attacking side might actualy score some goals, if he had done this weeks ago no one would be shouting for him to be sacked.
i wait to be convinced 1 win against struggling side does not make a dramatic turnaround a few more wins on the trot is what we need.
i agree mulgrew should be given a fair go, he has done well for scotland u21′s. . daniel jones amongst other deserve a chance. and i still think eastwood give a fair crack could become a wolves hero(will he get another game though).
i hear burnley are after barry robson from dundee utd, why don’t we go after him £750k for great attacking midfielder, scores plenty goals, good passer and tough tackler and a leader on the pitch. will be snapped up soon and will become scotland regular.
so come on the wolves keep this winning streak going
