George Elokobi is out of the home clash against Swindon Town with a hamstring strain and captain Sam Ricketts is a doubt with a knee injury.

Looks like Batth for captain again then. Do we know if Golbourne is fit again?

Nothing wrong with that. let's be honest. Elokobi isn't really upto the job in hand is he. god loves a trier but that's not what we want at the mol.

What has George done wrong? has he made any defensive howlers this season? NO. He might not be as good as Rickets or Golbourne but he's more than capable at this level. Seriously some 'fans' just have to pick on at least one player. If its not Stears its Davis if its not Davis its Elokobi! Seriously guys are you that insecure! I know of many, many players that would be kicking and screaming if they were in GE's boots. But not big George he's Wolves through and through and if you were you wouldn't be putting him or any other Wolves player down. (bar the terrible two)

I also reckon that a lot of Wolves give Big George a really hard time. He's starting to look like his blood runs gold after all.

My only criticism of him really is that he's being played as a centre back. He may be a man mountain but he's just not tall enough for that spot.

If Elokobi is a footballer'I'm a very successful millionaire actor/composer who has been awarded the Nobel prize for what ever takes my fancy and I'm blessed with an impressively huge member.

I think centre back is his best position.

And may that 'impressively huge member' be above your brow? Elokobi is a great example to the youth of our club and is more than adequate backup. Ask a host of clubs from the heights of the championship to the lows of league 2 if they would take him as a first 11 player. I'm sure you'd find at least 10 teams from each league.

Elokobi might be poor, but sure as hell better than Stephen ward

Oh yes, the papers have been full of talk'about clubs from the championship and below clamouring for the Big un's defensive prowess.

It would be prudent of you to step away from the mirror when mentioning appendages and brows my good man, reflections and the like

Just like it was prudent of you to rid your house of all mirrors then :) Who's up next week erk? will it be Davis or will it be Stears? Or will you have chosen another player to slag off by then? I bet you'll be singing his name if he comes on. That is unless you sit in the Billy quiet. Which in my opinion is the best place for you and your views. The sooner we can get rid of your likes the sooner we'll be on the highway to success.

The papers aren't even full of the talk of Messi being signed by X team. And he's the worlds best. So no I don't think they would be full of talk.

Wolves will announce massive losses but where has all that Jarvis fletcher kightly and other players like gudeola cash gone this scouser is draining wolves dry have you seen all the land brought in London and all them houses down Compton scary times for wolves I don't care who says what he's taken out more than he has put in!

For years many have gone on about how well this club has been run financially.
Head in the sand.

It's gone to pay the players we can't sell, amongst other things like fees for those we've signed like Sako and the loss carried forward from the 2011 season (when we bought the likes of RJ and JOH). Our income has dropped (twice) and the parachute payments don't make up the difference. And there is money allocated for the stadium.

Not saying Wolves' financial plan is perfect, but you can't look at one month of cash in/out in isolation.

McWulf, your factual, sane, sensible explanation will do nothing to counter the paranoid delusions of some contributors to this forum.

The money has to pay the wages they are on, also morgan has said that if anybody wants to invest in the club with him they are most welcome, but there are no offers, so why don't we get of his back and until someone wants to invest just carry on what we are doing we are still a better run club than most and have no debt so we ought to be thankful, I've moaned has well, but fair play to morgan he wants to take this club to were it belongs and also has admitted he has made mistakes, so let's move on like he said in the interview, the past has gone let's look to the future. wolfy

I think that's right Wolfy. If a billionaire from the Gulf or Russia comes along then Morgan will talk. But most football clubs lose money and there aren't many philanthropists around like Dave Whelan. Frankly Morgan is as good as they come these days.

Part of The cash has gone into paying off Saunders and solbakken
