Did anyone actually see Jeff leave the building?
Who is instructing/advising Nathan?

Why have we not heard from Nathan?
2.) 23 Jan 2026 22:38:42
Well we all know how much Jeff is a fan of sci fi, he told us in one of his car crash interviews so my theory is at the end of the season Nathan will call a press conference then take off a mask and it’s Jeff all along underneath like the old program V ??

Wolves have refused to send Shrewsbury extra tickets for the FA Cup game as the extra revenue wouldn’t cover the operating costs.
Another great PR stunt by the club keeping seats empty and locking paying fans out.
1.) 09 Jan 2026 19:47:55
Can you give more detail, I can’t read the full article but from what I do see it seems like they were offered more initially but took the lower amount. Now have changes their mind but because it’s in the stan cull is not Steve bull the operating cost would outweigh what shrews make.
Seems like the fault of Shrewsbury owners not wolves, at least that’s what the comments I’ve seen say. Interested why you think it’s wolves fault.
2.) 09 Jan 2026 21:34:06
Because it’s Wolves stadium Goatmark1 and the opposition are asking for tickets for the game but we can’t afford to let them in so the seats remain empty?
An odd position for a club that has been in the PL for eight years with all its riches paying players huge salaries but can’t allow fans into the stadium as the cost of doing so is prohibitive.
3.) 09 Jan 2026 23:23:35
But I don’t think that’s the case, it’s not about the cost to us from what I see. If they had taken the higher amount of tickets first of all they would be in the Steve bull stand and so the operation costs would be fine. It’s the fact they wanted less so we put them in the stan cullis then they changed their minds but to add more fans to the stan cullis would affect the profit they take due to the layout and increased operation costs. Incidentally they are also complaining that we priced the tickets at £10 (funnily enough too low) which again means they aren’t taking as much, they even said they make more from a league game.
Btw i'm not trying to cause arguments First just trying to get the facts right to blame the right people, of course I could be reading the situation wrong.
4.) 09 Jan 2026 23:57:49
Ok I might have been wrong about which stand and the reason behind why the operation costs are more but I think it still affects the profit shrews take. Either way it still doesn’t seem it’s our fault to me.
5.) 10 Jan 2026 08:58:20
Havnt seen anything about the ticket allocation to Shrews fans other than they're being housed in the lower steve bull. Shrewsbury had a waiting list for tickets.
Of course the match is also on TV if you've the appropriate subscriptions.
£10 does seem a low price admittedly.

After 20 games played we were 12 points adrift of Nottingham Forest in 17th place and PL safety.
After 21 games played we are 14 points adrift of Nottingham Forest in 17th place.
The players improvement in endeavour and attitude is not yet reflected in the league table.
1.) 08 Jan 2026 13:42:29
In other words, we drew and they won in our respective last matches. Apologies, FTP.
2.) 08 Jan 2026 15:45:51
Yes Old Wulf that is correct.
If you take our points accumulation over the last six games compared to Forest we have 5 points and they have 6 so although we have improved and the players are now playing for the shirt we have worryingly not gained any ground on our competitors but have fallen further behind.
3.) 08 Jan 2026 15:44:36
After 17 games we were 16 points adrift of Nottingham forests in 17th. Showing the players improvement in endeavour and attitude is clearly reflected in the league table. We had 2 points 3 games ago, we now have 7.
What a pointless comment designed to shed a negative light on what the team have achieved in recent weeks. It’s clear to see how the team has improved under RE not just by looking at the results. It seems some people just want to make it look like nothings changed. What a joke.
4.) 08 Jan 2026 17:33:50
In 2026, Wolves have 4 points and Forest only have 3.
Statistics can be manipulated to fit whatever objective you're trying to find.
5.) 08 Jan 2026 17:43:19
We have to keep going and hope someone else can get dragged in later in the season,
6.) 08 Jan 2026 17:58:09
Sorry but I feel like I'm reading a different thread to everyone else here?! First has simply pointed out that despite an upturn in perfromances/effort we are however still further a drift. What part of that is incorrect or maniplualtated exactly?! I know he's been previously negative but let's try and judge each post on its merit shall we because what then is negative (or even inrorrect) about 'The players improvement in endeavour and attitude is not yet reflected in the league table'?!
Yes its nice that we've turned a corner and credit to the team/RE for it but surely people are still allowed to point out the realities of our predicament?! I'm afraid the reality (however you spin/manipulate the data) is we look more likely to go down today than we did last week.
The Forest result agaisnt WHU has put all three teams in the zone in very real danger, that's just facts I'm afraid! Don't believe me then ask a WHU fan ?
7.) 08 Jan 2026 19:42:36
Because it’s manipulation of the stats BB, as my post points out over a longer timeframe we are in fact better off. Using one game as an example isn’t a true reflection. As I said we now have 5 more points than we did 3 games ago which shows vast improvement even if we did only have 2 points. To say it’s not reflected in the table is misleading. As goodwhileitlasted points out we have a point more than them over the last three games.
Ultimately it’s pointless making the comparison and all it does is cast a negative light on things. The only thing that’s relevant is that we have got more points in the last 3 games than we had over the previous 18.
I’m all for people pointing out the way they view the predicament but I think we all get it by now, what’s the point in constantly reminding everyone other than to put a downer on what has been a good three games. Yes staying up is unlikely but why try kill the hope that some still have?
8.) 08 Jan 2026 20:36:36
A positive stat for you then Goatmark1 is that if we match Brentford’s results for the rest of the season we will finish on 26 points less than them.
9.) 08 Jan 2026 21:49:06
Apparently 6 out of 10 fans don’t believe in statistics ?
10.) 08 Jan 2026 22:39:19
99% of statistics are only true 50% of the time 100% true that or is it 90% true? I’m only 40% sure
??
11.) 08 Jan 2026 23:16:53
Let hope they win the rest of their games then firstthepoints. But yes well done we are 26points behind Brentford yet another pointless stat.
Tbh I think it’s more likely that we need to catch Leeds, whatever the case all we can do it try win as many as possible and hope others around us lose as many as possible. Much like the transfer thread the other day looking at what other teams are doing just adds to the disappointment. We can only try to control our own destiny

Did he jump or was he pushed? His lies on radio, an attempt to placate everything, relegation a technicality? His handling of our club became clear Fosun will have seen and read heard the chants, he'd become an embarrassment to them.
So His working title is changed and a fall guy comes in onan interim basis.
Fosun just trying to limit the flak they're getting and the new lad can take it for the time being.
We havnt been heard yet MoW. The protest must be louder and bolder. We need fosun out not just a change of muppet.

Regarding our pending relegation Jeff Shi said ‘when you have good financial planning you don’t have to worry too much about results on the pitch.We have clear financial planning for the next three years.’He also said that preparation for the next game (Arsenal)is the most important thing.
1.) 12 Dec 2025 21:50:06
Th truth about tomorrow's game is Arsenal only have to turn up to get the points. Our lot play they expect to lose, as they did in the Man U game. They don't even expect anything but a loss. So sad what they have allowed to happen to us.

Mateus Fernandez-Pardo is going to have his work cut out then if the internet rumours are true regarding outgoings.

GWIL I think The Futures point is that while we did have the best time in our recent history under Fosun the cost could be that we may not have a club to support at all if the mis-management continues into the next couple of seasons.
Future is asking if a couple of seasons as best of the rest is worth losing the club for.
15 Jan 2026 17:06:58
Or did Fosun stab Mendes in the back by deviating from their original plans to progress the club into a Champions League team with a world class stadium and forcing out many other staff members who had the same ambitions?
