Irrespective of all the turmoil there's a match to be played tonight. Not a league match I know, but still a vital game in assessing where we currently stand.
Incredibly West Ham are below us in the league due to their worse goal difference so what do we think? Do we even know what our best team is currently as VP has had to start the season with an incomplete squad?
Some have questioned VP's team selections but is he still trying to find out due to the limiting factors of his pre-season?

I'm really interested in tonight's selection longmynd for a few reasons, firstly it's the carabao, so wouldn't be expecting a first team squad, Johnstone I'm assuming would already be GK, then I would be expecting Santi, yerson, Hugo and maybe rodrigo/Lima, but then Wolfe and jackson maybe preferred for game time and maybe an experiment with either toti/agbadu/doc slotting with any of the above.
Do we see bellegarde/ munetsi /arias/ lopez then hwang will larsen start (injury claimed on sat) or possible Mane as youngsters are in vogue elsewhere.
Personally I'd love to see Hugo/ jackson /rodrigo/lopez get the start and see what they can do.
Agbadu could maybe do with some time out to sort out his concentration and toti to 'reflect'.
A worrying thing from sat for me tho was VPs comments regarding Andre, and Andre's quick disappearance down the tunnel at the end, I do hope we haven't lost the pack spirit totally and that VP hasn't lost the dressing room.
I know its more doom and gloom but the way things have been around everything it's hard to be optimistic. On that front though a solid win tonight would do wonders for confidence and being at home I hope we can come through, find some unity and look forward and to that end we need the crowd along and more importantly a talisman on the pitch, now who that could be I don't know.

When was the last time 2 teams met where 1 has not yet scored but conceded 4 and the other has scored 1 but conceded 7?
1 scored, 12 conceded!
Difficult to predict a winner, so I'll go for penalties.

Should be an eye opener for Fosun, fans aren't going to show, clubs that will have bigger crowds tonight include - Blues, Sunderland and Sheffield Wednesday, they should've included the first home cup tie on season tickets, sign of Fosun's attitude towards fans and the apathy that's spreading through the club, some sth's already give their tickets away for games they don't want to see, we can't be far away from the protests of the eighties.

1-0 wolves, rubbish game hwang will get a counter attacking goal and say farewell. Heard it here first.
Potentially Fabio will play if he is leaving, although not a good player for us during his time he may want to play just to say bye.

Old Wulf, you said the same the other day, that it would be a very low turnout. Have you looked on the website for tickets? It was saying yesterday that it’s sold out, none available, so where is all this standing room you keep talking of?

I’d be surprised if we play players who are about to be sold due to potential injuries

I would have thought Abbey that VP might want to put out his 'best' side tonight, firstly, to try to get a win under his belt again (when was the last one?) and secondly to highlight any obvious areas for improvement needed within the squad.
Either way this is an important game if not just to keep the paying fans onside and give them something worth watching.

Yes of course longmynd a first team win would bolster everyone and a goal, let alone a win ( last one Leicester 3-0 at the mol in April by the way), would encourage everyone that we can do it.
