Southampton (4-4-2): Davis; Wright, Thomas, A Davies, Vignal; Viafara, Idiakez, Safri, Licka; John, Saganowski.

Dangerman

Eddie Wolf, dan baillie and wulf all predicted the 1-0 win over Colchester, wulf getting the scorer correct. Well done to all three.

    Nathan Lloyd

    I’ll stick to my 2-0 blog prediction.

    I think John will be the danger man, but don’t forget the hat-trick hero from last season, Saganowski.

    Wolves 3-0 Southampton. Kyle hatrick. Prove the doubters wrong. Give the guy a chance tonight he is something different and I can see him being a real folk hero.

    Come on Wolves.

    Wolveswolves number 4. Shut your mouth and support the Albion. Critisism is fair enough if constructive. You are going hell for leather to get Mick out. What good is that going to be at this time of the season. Please put your head in gear.

    2-3. Saints to go 2-0 up within 30mins, bringing back memories of last season’s walloping. Wolves make it 1-2 on the stroke of half time. Saints start the second half as they did the first and go 3-1 up early on. Wolves claw one back on 90mins which has the masses watching the teles by the exists not sure whether to make a dash for it or hold on for an equaliser. Alas, it never comes, and Wolves are ‘done’ by Southampton again. ARRRGHHH.

    9) We’re asked to make our predictions. This is what I have done.
    Based on our results this season whats more likely 0-0 or 3-0 like you think?
    And a Kyle hattrick…your on a different planet.

    Seems like your one of the so called supporters who are happy to see us labour in the middle of the
    league.

    I WAS IN FLAV’S BAR IN COSTA DEL SOL NOT LONG AGO, SO WHAT I HEAR YOU SAY, WELL FLAV’S BAR WAS OWNED BY THE MOTHER AND STEP FATHER OF ARRON FLAHAVAN WHO WAS SOUTHEND’S GOALKEEPER LAST SEASON.
    HIS STEPFATHER SAID TO ME THAT FREDDIE EASTWOOD WAS BY FAR AND AWAY THE MOST BONE IDLE PLAYER AT SOUTHEND LAST SEASON DESPITE HIS GOALS. PERHAPS MICK KNEW THIS AND WAS PREPARED TO GAMBLE ON CHANGING HIM BUT FAILED, HENCE THE REASON HE SIGNED E-BLAKE AND KYLE. I ALSO THINK WOLVES FANS SHOULD GET OFF KYLE’S BACK AND GIVE HIM A CHANCE.

    It will probably be a close game again tonight. I would like to think the Wolves will just shade it by the odd goal.
    However, looking at the bigger picture, I think that the building blocks are gradually being put in place brick by brick for a bright long-term future! We have drafted in some useful new talent which will eventually bear fruit. Up the old golds!

    Your repulsive attacks on Wolves supporters show that you are one of Micks aides trying to protect him, by doing what Mick does, deriding the Wolves supporters.

    You can’t tell Wolves from birth to go and support the Baggies, just because a temporary member of staff (Mick), just passing through, is offended by statements that are made about his own inadequacies.

    Go back to Mick and tell him that we’ve seen through you!
