The football blog for fans of all clubs
Told ya there was nothing to worry about. Weâre now twelve points clear of second and fourteen points clear of third and yes Derby and Cardiff have got a game in hand, but, we seemed to be getting there, back to where we once were. Not that we went off the boil for long, after […]
Like Bowieâs âJean Genieâ in 1973 and Ultravoxâs âViennaâ in 1981, quality doesnât always get to the top. A league table of European attendances was published recently and nestling third behind Germany and the English Premiership sat the English Championship, hardly lifting its head to notice, but just getting on with keeping its hand on […]
Before I get into the blog, and I promise this will not be a regular occurrence within these, I wanted you to be aware that I had the honour to go on the Tilton Talk podcast. It has always been a dream of mine to be a regular podcast host and to take the first step into […]
Not really sure what to write this time. Letâs get it out the way, thatâs probably for the best. We were not up to scratch against Forest on Saturday and itâs been like that since November but weâve managed to grind out results so it hasnât mattered so much. However, we are now in a […]
Before I get into the blog itself, I want you to know a bit of background on me, both related to Birmingham and to football in general. I was born in Birmingham and lived in Birmingham for eighteen months before moving to South Derbyshire due to family reasons, however, I was always brought up in a Brummie way. I’m […]
As it goes, we lost to Swansea last night. I wasnât arsed about it anyway. We made eight changes last night with Costa, Douglas and Doherty retaining their places from the draw at Barnsley last Saturday; Doherty and Douglas kept their places because we literally havenât got anyone else that could have played there as […]
In what is his second stint as manager of the club he once played for, Holloway has now managed over 300 games for The Hoops. ‘Ollie’ is loved by football fans for his sense of humour and general light-hearted take on life, but for myself, as a fan of QPR, my patience and love for […]
Paul Lambert got appointed as Stoke manager yesterday and I would feel sorry for Stoke fans but I donât like them so it is going to be amusing to watch them suffer at the hands of him. The only bit of advice I can give to any Clayhead reading this is that it does get […]
âWolves have bought the leagueâ or âItâs easy when Mendes is involvedâ or another one of a hundred things have been spouted about us so far this season and Iâm sick of it but as opposed to moaning about it like I normally would, Iâm gonna let the team do the talking for me. One […]
This Saturday 19th-placed Barnsley host league leaders Wolves in what is a crucial game for both teams. Speaking at the club press conference today, Barnsley manager Paul Heckingbottom talked injuries, new and potential signings, and on the opposition. âWeâre a bit light at the minute in terms of numbers, Adam Jackson has come back in, […]
The last thing that we looked at was the fact that we had the opportunity to go twelve points clear if we beat Brentford last Wednesday and quite a bit has happened since then as weâve beaten Real Madrid to a striker, played against a Premier League side with ten men for fifty minutes and […]
To say it has been a year of contrast for us Wolves fans is a one hell of an understatement as weâve gone from Paul âDid I tell you I played in Germanyâ Lambert to Nuno Espirito Santo, Nouha Dicko to Diogo Jota and Dave Edwards to Ruben Neves to name just three changes which […]

After all the excitement and drama of Ashton Gate which ended 2017 with a bang, we are now back at Molineux where we entertain a Brentford side who have won their last three. We will be without the suspended Danny Batth after his suspension was upheld by the FA after his red card in the […]

Nuno Espirito Santo can probably walk on water, in fact, Iâd be surprised if he couldnât because our game on Saturday against Bristol City was something else. Do you want to know the best thing about it all? He did it whilst being sat in the directorâs box after getting sent off for the second […]
A win away at Bristol City will see us go a minimum of ten points clear of second place and eleven of third place which is a superb cushion to have going into 2018. That will be easier said than done as we havenât been playing to our usual, very high standards recently and Bristol […]

For the third time this season we failed to win in London but it could have been a lot worse and in hindsight, a point is a good result away at Millwall. Youâll recall in the preview for the game I touched on the fact that they saw off Middlesbrough and Sheffield United whilst having […]
Another game, another three points on Saturday for us as we continue our assault on Readingâs Championship record and as we hit the halfway mark we are on track for 108 points if we match what we have achieved in the first half of the season. That beats their record by two points, but I […]
