Jackson was decent the second half, if he plays like that every match i think he'll win us over.
Fantastic result means Derbys record is now safe.

Great win passed Derby's total point tally. Anyone for catching Burnley
27 Feb 2026 22:10:59
Great result lads. Got a chance to catch Burnley.
Thought Armstrong was absolutely brilliant tonight, just need the midfield to get on the same page as him. Tchatchua had a suspect first 15 mins but his second half performance more than made up for it.
Happy for the team and RE.
Thought Sa was poor with his distribution again. Santi was a monster at the back and Hugo never stopped. But for me Gomes and Andre ran the show.

So poor by Unai to have left the field before the final whistle and not shake RE's hand.

Last week, we had Paul Merson moaning about Arsenal after the 1-1 draw, with little respect for our team, and this evening we have had 45 mins of Lee Hendrix crying over this Villa defeat. No mention of our terrific effort, with less than 40% possession in both games. Fantastic performance from our lads in the last 2 games. Keep it going.
27 Feb 2026 20:53:21
Why is Jackson even in the squad never mind on the pitch absolute useless. Why when Wolves get in Villas half the ball always goes backwards just no forward passing.
27 Feb 2026 21:33:43
Rhuuud and Dmac, I think we've just seen the answers. Armstrong will have some mates now, and Jackson finally got his act together. All the credit to Gomes though, he started and finished the move, great goal. Now the refs changed his batteries, it's back to the match. Can we hold on? Will we finish with 11 players? Can we fend the vile off?
27 Feb 2026 22:02:21
Brilliant second half. Not happened too often this season, but I actually enjoyed watching the game. If only we had that fight at the start of the season!
27 Feb 2026 22:03:04
And Banksy, mate, I said he was an impact player, Rodrigoooo. 2-0 didn't think it'd happen, some shoddy stuff at times, but bl**dy brilliant in the end. Got to give Mosquiro a mention, tremendous effort tonight. And tremendous effort from everyone, and that's the difference.Liverpool twice next week. Be dreaming tonight. COYW.
27 Feb 2026 22:27:20
Well, that was bloody nail-biting. Jackson was absolutely useless until the 55th minute, and then suddenly - boom. That little run and cross gave him the confidence, and suddenly he was everywhere.
Again, Santi was unflappable. Andre and Joao dominated the midfield in the 2nd half. Mosquera needs to rein his temper in, and Armstrong was again anonymous in the 1st half, but so much better in the 2nd.
27 Feb 2026 20:52:44
Wonder what Armstrong did wrong in training this week to upset the lads, so many promising positions and anticipated runs that are being missed! Some dodgy officiating again; Mosquera right to be unhappy with that yellow- wonder how many chances he is going to give Buendia before a card is shown? Fingers crossed for the second half
27 Feb 2026 22:29:41
Well, just another 9 wins in a row and we have a chance. But to carry this kind of fight to the end of the ssn, we might get off bottom spot. That would be a positive to carry into next ssn.
27 Feb 2026 20:17:48
16 mins in and Jackson has made 3 mistakes already. I hope he doesn't cause us to concede.
27 Feb 2026 20:56:50
We will never score with this selection: no forwards, no height, no hold-up play. Defence looks incapable of passing or creating anything. Armstrong is making runs, but no one can see him or is capable of finding him.
We need height at centre forward: leave Armstrong on, replace Gomes, and move Bellegarde into his position. We will then have height at centre forward. Otherwise we will never score.
27 Feb 2026 20:59:18
Mosquera is going to go unless he calms down. Villa will crap themselves if Jackson actually moved more towards the box. Sa has great hands, but his feet are not so good. He does pass well to the other goalie. Armstrong is out of sync. Lots of running into offside positions, which is just as well, as no one knows he's there or even looks up! I've started to get excited when we reach the halfway mark, but I worry we'll have too many players moving forward and have no one to pass back to! Come on Wolves!!.

Still no game for Rodrigo., somebody please explain! It's pathetic.!
27 Feb 2026 19:44:35
I don't get it either, Prestonwolf. Someone said he doesn't perform well in training, but I think it matters more in matches rather than training. I understand a little if he is very poor in training; however, he seems a good lad who always gives everything.
27 Feb 2026 19:56:47
I do think he's more of an impact player at the moment, Banksy & Preston, Jackson a little more experienced to start with, but I'm with you, he deserves more match time, and he is really promising.
We've nothing to lose now. Bragging rights tonight accepted, so let's see what we can do, a bit new, a bit different.Difficult tonight. Expect defeat; I did against Arsenal, so who knows? Coyw.

Wolves have already confirmed that the players have a relegation clause in their contracts of a wage cut of between 30% - 50%.
27 Feb 2026 16:20:38
Sounds good in theory, rko. The problem is top Championship players (and I mean top star players); their top end is the 30k a week mark. Now, someone like Jackson, who is on a reported 60 grand a week, will be on between 30 and 40 grand a week depending on his clause. In no one's works, not even the deluded Jeffs, is he worth that, especially in the Championship.
I think we will lose at least 80 percent of the playing squad when we go down; relegation clauses or not, they will all still be on a ridiculous amount for the Championship. Our income is going to be slashed. Parachute payments won't put a dent in the money we owe, which is circa the 300 million mark. Make no mistake, we are deep in the brown stuff financially.
27 Feb 2026 19:40:40
Agreed, De wolf, mate. Most of our squad will be gone, most due to wages; the rest because they're cowards.
