    If this team can’t beat the St Mary’s hoodoo then I have to wonder if we ever will!

    I would have to argue that this is the best Wolves side for many many years. Just look at their ages and the amount of full and U21 internationals, 4 of the bench are regular full caps for their respective nations!!!!!

    Bizzarley in this day and age there is only one player who falls outside of the British/Irish bracket (unless you count Ikeme’s tentative Nigerian link). I’m buzzin!!

    Come on me babbies!!!!

    Glad Mick chose the same team, Carlos Edwards deserves his place on left wing. Give Vokes a better chance too!
