So pre season tickets are 95 dollars. Then include booking fee and taxes. That seems obscene for a pre season friendly.

I know what you mean Rated. But the Premier League will always protect their favourite 6 clubs as they are the most profitable to them. Wolves are trying to be run correctly and within the guidelines but the PL allows certain clubs to circumnavigate the rules.
Villa will have upset the cartel this season by finishing towards the top of the table. They will need to recompense for this so within the next 2 years, they will face a fine and points deductions for breaching PSR rules. All the while, Man City have in affect cooked the books and have 115 charges hanging over them which the PL still haven't dealt with and Man Utd and Spurs each have total debts of over £650m each.
But Forest overspend by £9m and they get deducted points.
{Ed001's Note - the Premier League is made up of 20 clubs who all have equal voting rights. If the top 6 acted as a cartel they would quickly get outvoted by the other 14.}

I know Ed. I'm over egging the pudding a bit but it does seem as though there is a bit favouritism about.
{Ed001's Note - I think it is more the perception of favouritism because of media spin. They only highlight what they want to, or people would be noticing that Man City never get big decisions against them.}

Ed001, I value highly your opinions info and guidance. However on this issue there is a lot of smoke to suggest something of a cartel. Perhaps cartel is the wrong word, but there is ambition to create the Super League, generate more income from global TV as a result, and possibly in the future a protected franchise style arrangement. Personally I see the potential in VAR to influence outcomes on the pitch to aid results which benefit the plan. I would love to be here in 10 years to see if I am right. Or perhaps not.

Surprise surprise.
An Independent Key Match Incident Panel has found that Man City's 1st penalty against us last week was the INCORRECT call.
Bare in mind the detrimental effect this had on the team and how after such a decision, the team were probably scared to make a tackle due to Pawsons horrendous and now confirmed wrong decision, what action is going to be taken against Pawson?
The answer is: Nothing as the incident would only be scrutinised if it went against a Big 6 club.

About time Wolves grew a pair and kicked up a stink and took legal action against the Prenier league, both Forest and Brighton would back us, I suspect a few other clubs would too.
10 May 2024 17:00:41
When a penalty for an incident like that is given, then in my opinion the outcome of that game is predetermined. Corrupt Ref/VAR! What else can anyone conclude.
I don't waste my hard earned money going to the matches anymore although I have renewed my membership and been to 4 maybe 5 home games this season. Won't be going to any next season and when my sky sports subscription ends in August that's going too. I do have a 'stick' where I'll still watch any Wolves game I can, but I'm losing interest in the game overall now. Been going to the Wolves for over forty years and regardless of where I am it's the first result I look for and it still ruins my day/weekend if we lose. It's corrupt, simple as. Nothing will happen to the ref/VAR team covering that game, absolutely zilch. City get another hollow victory by a high margin because our players were just totally deflated by that poor penalty decision. Let's be completely honest that the standard of refereeing is appalling and those in control of VAR with all the technology at their fingertips is even worse. How they can be defended is beyond me.

I don't intend to go to any games until at least October. This will have given the league a few weeks after the International break to see how the new and 'improved' VAR system is working. Why they had to wait for the International break I don't know but between August and September, we'll have the same pathetic system.
10 May 2024 11:00:22
How do you think Wolves will line up on Saturday. Nothing to lose, Does O'Neill give some youngsters a run or field his strongest eleven. Palace have improved under their new coach so it won't be easy.
10 May 2024 11:10:40
I'd say he'd like a strong finish as it is the last game of the season at The Molineux.
10 May 2024 19:07:45
I think after last week's result and this being our last home game I think he'll go with our strongest 11, hopefully for a home win.

Interesting to see West Ham being linked with every Sevilla player Wolves were previously linked with when JL was our manager.
Upshot: nonsense stories.
10 May 2024 08:48:39
Too true Jack
One I read that tickled me was Fabio Silva could go to West Ham as he hotbon with lopetegi, you couldn't dream them up they that such nonsense.
10 May 2024 09:22:40
Typo,
hotbon should of been gets on .
10 May 2024 10:12:00
Personally, I hope the Kilman to West Ham rumour is true.
09 May 2024 16:37:53
Excited to get to a Pre season game living close to the location for the west ham game is. Be interesting to see how they do in the USA

A good PR exercise vbwolf.glad you will get to see them live!
On a different tact, with Villa losing last night, the myth the Premiership hierarchy like to project, that it is the "Best League in the World". is exposed. No Premiership side in any of the European Finals.even the 3rd tier!
It is a mess, VAR, Club Ownership, FFP, devaluing the FA Cup etc etc.
10 May 2024 08:46:59
I wouldn't like it to be cancelled like it has been last few years.
Fairplay vb if you can go and see us.

It's a mess alright rugeley, they tinkered with things not broken and shattered it, will they let it rebuild, will they let teams and players play the game instead of interference? No. They'll carry on rummaging around to extract more cash from the crock.
Back to USA its obviously a PR visit but it should be a good tester for GON to assess and identify players. Brings my memories back to the newcastle man city tournament we won in Asia, patricios cut head and penalty saves, enjoyed watching that, hope this will be available too and everyone hotbons phil.

Not footie, but one for the biker fans, I think there are some Wolf Bikers. I am currently travelling through France in the Ardeche, Auvergne and part of the Cevennes. All very mountainous with fantastic views, plenty of hairpins and sweeping curves. Frequented by many bikers of a certain age having a ball. I wondered if any on here had ridden this way. Longmynd, Ken etc
08 May 2024 17:38:19
Lucky you. I and my brother went down that road 1980. From Paris to Marseille. The last ride in France was down the N85 Napoleon route a couple of years ago. Have a nice ride. Keep on the right side of the road.
08 May 2024 19:09:09
WimborneWolf. I’m not a biker, never have been. But I envy you having that freedom and scenery. I think I speak for all Wolves fans on here, when I say - enjoy yourself, but please take care in those hills and hairpins. Ride safely buddy,
08 May 2024 22:40:39
Hi Wimbourne, sounds like you're enjoying your trip. I think I drove that road many years ago but sadly not on a bike. Maybe I'll get to do it on two wheels one day as I've been thinking about a good overseas ride.
Plenty of good rides here in the meantime so looking forward to a better summer than last. Plus, my bike isn't exactly what you might consider to be a tourer, lol.
09 May 2024 10:35:04
My daily bike had a breakdown just before leaving home so I used my BSA spitfire down to Corfu. Just don't tell your bike it's not a touring bike and it will be ok.

Few years ago we did the Pico's in Spain back into Santander then through the Pyrenees into France. Had a great time. Ferry back Cherbourg to Poole.
Last year and one for you to consider. We did Black forest Germany B500 Baden Baden through Switzerland, along many of the passes. Austria, Belgium, then back via Holland. Again, great riding. There's also the Wild Atlantic way which is great, and of course Scotland, which is fantastic.

A Spitfire, now there's a proper bike.
