Itâs weird. Itâs hard to put into words. Yes weâve clinched promotion and yes weâve taken the first step to cracking the elite, but itâs all just a bit meh. Not only was it an anti-climax with promotion being sealed when Fulham dropped points at home to Brentford, but the game against Blues was a […]

Neves, Neves & Er, Ruben Neves | A Week Of Wolves
It takes a lot to take my breath away. Nonetheless, every once in a while something happens that does just yet. For there to have been two instances since I last put pen to paper (I know itâs typed, shut up) is simply mind-blowing yet such is the wonder of this season we are having. […]
Stuart Attwell, Oskar Buur & A Banished Hoodoo | A Week Of Wolves
Thatâs it. The dream is over. Yes, weâre still top and yes weâll be in the Premier League next season. Nonetheless, it is somewhat disappointing that we canât match Readingâs record points haul anymore. I say that because I do believe that we are one of if not the greatest side ever to play in […]
Vodka Mixers, Sixty Seven Years & Christian Herc: A Week Of Wolves
You were probably wondering where I was yesterday. Ok, well maybe you weren’t! Never mind. Moving swiftly on. Nothing to recap from a Wolves perspective this week in terms of results due it being an international break, nevertheless, due to us being an absolutely massive club, we had eighteen players out on international duty. International […]
Six Points, Six Goals & Uzbekistan At Home | A Week Of Wolves
A week is considered a long time in football. 604,800 seconds, 10,080 minutes or 168 hours. Mad really isnât it? If you count to 604,800 in real time, then a week wouldâve been and gone. Anyway, the reason why Iâm starting with that is that last week, looking back on it, I may have been […]
Agony, Ecstasy & A P45 In The Post | A Week Of Wolves
It crossed my mind not to do this, this week. Weâre still top with a seven-point gap to third which is all that matters in the grand scheme of things, but that didnât stop me from hurting on Sunday. For once, it had nothing to do with an overzealous consumption of alcohol, instead, it was […]
11 Days Rest & Debunking The Mendes Myth | A Week Of Wolves
Right, I am sick of all this blatant propaganda coming for the press this week regarding calls for the Football League to look into Jorge Mendesâ involvement with us. Firstly, it was ratified by the Football League when Fosun initially took over and brought him in as an adviser and secondly, has anyone bothered looking […]
Hair Dryers, Delia Smith & A Shaking Stand | A Week Of Wolves
Weâre nearly back to familiar territory and I couldnât be happier, after all, itâs exactly what Wolves is all about. As a fan base, passion is a word that is banded about a lot when describing us, however, that passion can spill over as opinions go against each other and individuals end up bickering with […]
Alex Neil, A Proper Away End & The Hills Have Eyes | A Week Of Wolves
Thirteen points clear of third now after our draw away at Preston. It was a weird sort of game again. We showed glimpses of brilliance at times, Cavaleiro especially. The Preston manager, Alex Neil has done magnificently well in the meantime to piss of the Wolves faithful after saying that Wolves players go down too […]
Iwelumo, Survival & Twelve Points Clear | A Week Of Wolves
Twelve points clear of them Villa twats in second and thirteen clear of third. Twenty-two clear of seventh and forty-three points clear of relegation meaning weâre not quite safe yet, however, if we win away at Preston this week, our survival will be ensured. What a result. Anyway, we played Hollowayâs QPR at the weekend […]
Stories Of A Scout
A lot of people wonder about scouts and how all it works, well, I know that I did anyway. Did being the operative word! I was fortunate enough to chat with David Bujara who is a youth scout for a Football League Club and also does some freelancing work further down the pyramid. I dug […]
Frying Pans, Alfred N’Diaye & Guo Guangchang | A Week Of Wolves
What If? Itâs funny how much of an effect one event can have you, isnât it? I remember back at the end of August when we had failed to sign a striker on deadline day, I was livid, angry, upset and a whole host of other emotions which I rarely experience just because of our […]
Benik, Solbakken & Ten Shots On Target | A Week Of Wolves
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 […]
Walk This Way
There is meant to be a European Championships next year and a World Cup the year after, I bet you didnât know that, did you? To be fair, neither did I before I had a very insightful chat with Adam Chandler who is the founder of âWalking Football Spainâ which is all do with the […]
Spain, Andre & One Point From Six – A Week Of Wolves
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 […]
Mickey Mouse Cup Anyway
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 […]
Stoke, Swansea & Stourbridge – A Week Of Wolves
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 […]
Can We Do It In The Cold Up North?: Barnsley Away Preview
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 […]
A Week Of Wolves
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 […]
Wolverhampton Wanderers 2017 Part IV: On The Charge
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 […]
