If the Everton deal goes through will they have a bounce and leave us stranded. I am struggling to see where we will get points if we can not close out a game we lead at 70 mins. A rider to that is Dyche being sacked by new Year, and possibly us needing a saviour. Sorry, but I am sounding like Bux. ?
1.) 24 Sep 2024 09:31:30
I'm still hoping and praying that GON can get us through this mess.
2.) 24 Sep 2024 10:20:07
Any 3 from 4 now then, the promoted club that takes most points off us will stay up, they won’t all beat us twice will they?
3.) 24 Sep 2024 10:20:26
My question is can we field a Premier League standard defence after failing to replace Kilman and the injury to Yerson. If the answer is no, it doesn’t matter much how good the rest of the team is.
4.) 24 Sep 2024 10:21:09
Let's be honest Wimborne every club is going to leave us stranded if nothing changes soon. Just the consequences of the transfer window when imo they had no intention of buying a CH with the ability to replace Kilman or just bring in some cover at least.
Everton on the other hand massively breached FFP take a points hit but will come out of it all with new owners, a new ground and their Premier status intact.
Why do we follow every short period of success with progressive decline? This club needs to become more ruthless both on and off the pitch and stop being penny shy and pound foolish.
5.) 24 Sep 2024 12:21:26
Longmynd: You have cited the point that has made me angry over decades, not years: Why after a short period of success do we always then have a prolonged period of decline? There appears to be no right or wrong answer. We should have been in the position that Villa ultimately bagged, but boardroom failure, lack of investment, sitting back while on field and off field questionable activity from other clubs has subverted ours-have all contributed to the demise. Also when relegated, we seem incapable of 'bouncing' straight back like other clubs thus stagnating longer.
6.) 24 Sep 2024 12:35:13
It’s a Disgrace what is going on at Wolves! Who is to blame Fosun or those responsible for buying and selling players? GON can not be blamed as he can only select what players he has available but is he the right manager to get Wolves out of this mess? You don’t improve if you sell your best players and buy inferior players. Wolves supporters were hoping for a better season but that will not happen now and it will be a struggle to get results. I fear the worst and it is sad to see Wolves declining.
7.) 24 Sep 2024 12:37:00
I think there is a 'right' answer QS and it's an inability to rekindle the 'win at all cost' mentality that gripped the club in the 1950's.
Subsequent owners have either been unable or unprepared to put in what's required to maintain that commitment relying on the ability of the odd Manager or the luck of the right players happening to come together occasionally to get success but that inevitably fades after a couple of years and therefore the club declines.
The drive and leadership in any organisation has to come from the top, if that's gone then game over. What's the matter with these people?
8.) 24 Sep 2024 14:53:05
Meupiyou being unavailable until the end of October doesn't help us either.
9.) 24 Sep 2024 14:56:46
Hi Guys,
Not sure no blame can be pointed towards GON, afterall he is the head coach and he must have had some input into the players we bought in. As an example didn't Pedro Lima join because GON sold him the idea of how he would develop at Wolves? Also we were leading in the last two matches and then lose both due to very poor defending. We run out of steam and allow teams to come onto us, don't maintain the same energy levels, don't make appropriate subs at the right time, don't finish teams off when we're on top, play stupid tippy happy football in and around the opponents box allowing them to regroup. That's not Fosun, that's the coaching staff surely.
10.) 24 Sep 2024 15:19:53
I never mentioned dyche.
11.) 24 Sep 2024 17:00:16
Please no Bux.
30 Jun 2024 18:02:18
Oh dear, same old England. Lack of pace, desire, ideas. I think they would all rather be at home having a roast and putting their feet up.
1.) 30 Jun 2024 19:45:40
Very lucky to win let hope Southgate learns from this.
2.) 30 Jun 2024 20:42:21
Terrible to watch Wimborne. Why leave things so long before making the subs? Southgate got out of jail there. I felt sorry for the Slovakians.
3.) 30 Jun 2024 22:38:50
The same was said during the last Euros, baza. He's a slow learner.
4.) 30 Jun 2024 23:57:42
GON improved performances, last season, on virtually every player! Some of them out of hand i.e. Semedo, Cunha, RAN, Toti etc, etc . Southgate does the exact opposite! Thoughts? FWAW.
5.) 01 Jul 2024 08:26:14
Shush, keep it quiet or GON could be the next England Manager. That would be just typical wouldn’t it!
6.) 01 Jul 2024 09:33:26
The difference is Preston that GON is with his players every day, week in week out. Southgate has his players for a matter of days.
7.) 01 Jul 2024 12:48:04
Harry Kane has been awful in the Euros I think Southgate should bench him and play Watkins as striker. Watkins would add another dimension to the attack and Kane is very one dimensional.
8.) 01 Jul 2024 13:10:16
No Southgate constantly picks his mates that is the issue.
9.) 01 Jul 2024 13:40:01
There will be no change in tactics from Southgate. He probably thinks it's all going well. Semi finals of World Cup, finals of Euro 2020, so in his mind the logical next move will be winning a final. He's the classic Nearly Man.
06 Jun 2024 15:54:34
Looks like City's 115 charges are to be heard in November. Already lawyers are trading threats, the deal with the EFL is under threat due to PL mounting lawyer's costs. Suggestions that future trade between UK and UAE will be at risk. The PL's rules of ownership and hence sponsorship have been driven through by City's owners, and UK government pressure on the PL has enabled State ownership of clubs. I guess if you sup with devil, he will call to collect.
1.) 06 Jun 2024 19:43:39
Good analogy, but spot on.
08 May 2024 14:05:34
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
1.) 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.
2.) 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,
3.) 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.
4.) 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.
5.) 09 May 2024 20:30:56
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.
6.) 10 May 2024 07:36:14
A Spitfire, now there's a proper bike.
23 Mar 2024 19:53:58
Watching England, which I rarely do As I am getting on and time is valuable. Can someone please advise me as to why Maguire is in this team?
1.) 23 Mar 2024 21:10:04
Southgate’s love child maybe
2.) 23 Mar 2024 21:41:33
He must have some dirt on Southgate. Why else would he continually be picked.
On another note, we'll done to Joao Gomes on his debut. Looked good in the middle of the park. The 1st of hopefully many more caps.
3.) 23 Mar 2024 21:57:02
Southgate's favourite. Apparently he plays well with Stones. Thought he was poor again tonight and a poor back pass nearly cost us. Bin him.
4.) 23 Mar 2024 22:59:58
Jas, according to the match report on BBC, Joao was voted Man of the Match
5.) 24 Mar 2024 06:34:49
Watched some of the game last night, but like most fans, not enthused. I feel we are missing an opportunity. We have a choice of players with the ability to win the Euros comfortably.
Sadly we don't have a manager to make the most of the great talent available.
Not using a friendly to try others at CB and yet again pick a guy who doesn't even player regular team football, is a really poor lack of judgment.
Also THE RB is past his sell-by date, why not try a youngsters in Shaw's absence?
Brasil had lost their last 3 matches, so not a great threat, but they looked more like a team and a 17 year old scored one and missed a second big chance!
I was following on live text and when the manager made changes, the comment was, so no change to tactics, like for like subs.
Sums him up, so conservative with his approach. He is out of date with his strategies and would not get a job with most Premiership Clubs.
On the positive side, thought Gordon did well.
Great to see our second-best Brazilian get ratings better than most of the England players!
6.) 24 Mar 2024 08:59:51
Since euro 96 I've lost interest England.
Nice tribute for Terry venables.
Superb by Liverpool Ed001 to give sven g.erickson his life long dream to manage Liverpool.
John Aldridge Ian rush legends.
{Ed001's Note - really good game as well and so nice that Sven made tactical changes to win it.}
7.) 24 Mar 2024 09:09:41
Chuffed for you Ed001.
{Ed001's Note - I am just hoping it raised a lot for charity and that Sven got the most out of it. Watching him come out to a roar from the Kop did bring tears to my eyes I have to admit.}
8.) 24 Mar 2024 09:32:46
Only 2 players got an 8 rating in the Times - Paqueta and Gomes, none for England as per. Well done Joao.
I was happy with Southgate until recently, we were so close to winning something. He's just not able to manage a game. His initial set up yesterday seemed ineffectual, it needed tweaking. Individually a few of the England team played well but we were never a threat in open play yet nothing was altered it appears. As said above, like for like subs. GON is far less experienced but he alters setups mid game more often than not.
It's too late to change now, but I think he'll walk in July, if not I think we're wasting the most talented England squad ever.
9.) 24 Mar 2024 09:37:37
I stopped watching England the day grealish got called up pretty petty I know but I can’t stand the cheating little git from what I can gather I haven’t missed much either I was more interested in our little Brazilian master than englands performance
10.) 24 Mar 2024 10:04:20
Here here Ed001re raising for charity why it means something for me to post to you.
It's the nice side of the football community even though I'm a yam yam wolves fan.
Mac, grealish hasn't turned up any trees at man City I dislike the bloke too.
{Ed001's Note - that is what football clubs should be about - the local community that they draw their original fanbase from.}
11.) 24 Mar 2024 11:05:09
Very true Phil for me it was just the fact that for years we absolutely crucified foreign players for cheating and diving then all of a sudden it’s ok for an English player to start doing it I won’t have it I’m afraid. All his diving does is slow up play if teams want to press quickly. If Southgate’s happy with that then he’s not the man for the job.
12.) 24 Mar 2024 11:45:50
Southgate always was and will always be a Yes man to the FA. I remember the good old days when Bobby Robson, Terry Venables, Glenn Hoddle and Kevin Keegan selected players based on form, not the club you played for.
13.) 24 Mar 2024 17:12:02
Like you mac, I've given up on England. They turn up now more interested in themselves than being proud to represent the country. The FA just hijack games for money and commercialism. I just can't find the passion to enjoy it.
14.) 25 Mar 2024 10:21:53
England since 96 we've disappointed in every tournament.
All the golden generation Beckham lampard Gerrard deville shearer etc etc couldn't get past q/f.
Southgate has actually got us to 2 semi and a final.
Its all the same o same o qualify and fail in tournaments.
15.) 25 Mar 2024 10:23:44
Heard on Radio Wimborne Southgate picks maguire from how he performed at previous tournaments.
16.) 26 Mar 2024 17:25:40
Southgate really showing he picks his team and squad on sentiment alone and not form or ability. Handed rice the arm Band on his 50th cap wow what a way to run our national team. I bet he throws him a tea party with fairy cakes too, Pathetic
24 Aug 2024 11:08:58
Well said Rugeley?
20 Aug 2023 11:56:22
If it is a sale the timing seems strange. Fosun is a global investment company and would have been more likely to sell when Wolves were a more attractive prospect. At present they are a club hindered by FFP, which will be the same for a new owner, and a possible scenario of championship football on the horizon. It is possible Fosun are under pressure to raise cash, but what they would get for Wolves is small beer.
18 Jun 2023 18:27:56
He is big enough to make his own decisions, been a star for Wolves. I hope it all works out for him.
27 May 2023 21:41:07
Rated. What would you bet on it?
02 Oct 2022 16:03:50
They are gone.
08 Oct 2024 15:54:01
Excellent reading Longmynd and Tfig. Culture seems to be a theme and we all know that comes from leadership, which currently we are lacking at all levels, both on and off the pitch. I cannot believe Fosun do not monitor all their investments, large and small. I sense, however, they may consider they have put in enough. They are also not slow in off-loading if the investment does not perform to expectations. I suspect an overhaul ready for January window, if they are still committed or a sale not long afterwards.
07 Oct 2024 15:56:30
Enjoyed reading that Bully. We seem now to have a decent collection of squad players. But they need at least 3 seasoned Prem performers to lead them which we have had in the likes of Coady and Neves, backed up by tough players like Saiss, Boly at his best, Mouts and Jiminez. Players who will help squad performers, and get them playing flat out, and improving. We have no-one of that stature and no-one to organise and get on the case if players get sloppy. All good teams have them.
05 Oct 2024 16:45:40
So who will replace him? Who will want a relegation battle, coupled with owners whose business plan is not about building a team to chase trophies, but to generate profits from players development. That strategy has been found out!
05 Oct 2024 16:28:58
Pretty close to the truth I would say. They spent to get us up and stay there, then seem only willing to spend again if Wolves Prem status is threatened, meanwhile selling the silver.
05 Oct 2024 15:49:58
4 before half time against Brentford is a real worry.
