QuoteWhat odds on Wolves actually scoring an injury time goal to stay up?
Definetely his best game for Wolves and he seems to have found his best position as the strike partner for Fletcher. Very impressed with Ward's pace, tackling, passing and tackling today. Looks a much improved player and seems to be playing with a lot of confidence. He followed a West Brom player all the way back to his own dead ball line today to make a great tackle late in the second half.Originally Posted by elroy

New York, New York, so good they named it twice...
I decided his last tackle was worth the price of two! Very impressed with Ward today Stutts and hope he can keep playing to the same level. I expect to see him in the whittled down panel for the upcoming games. Definetely offers something different form our other front players.
I've heard it as so forgettable they had to name it twice so it would stick (and I agree).

Am looking for old Irish matches on VHS, PM me if you have some and I'll upload them here
A win for Wolves would put them on 40 points, however they have 2 goals better goal difference.
But a win and a defeat might reduce that.
There is a good chance someone will go down on goal difference.
Ward was 3rd best rated on Sky Sports, Hunt 2nd, and the double scoring Fletcher top.
Big plus to have Hunt back, combined well with Ward who also had a great game, good delivery from corners
lead to two of the goals, gets the ball over the first man (surprising how many people don't!!) and into the danger zone.
A couple more performances like that should see them safe.
Ward very nearly scored a magical goal, he was running towards goal, three defenders in front of him. He lofts the ball over the defenders head running to meet it on the other side, hit it quite well but just wide. Wouldve been a serious goal if it went in.
As they sometimes say, he (Ward) did everything right, except score.
Yes that was a great effort, very close to going in, just seemed to curve away at the last moment but he did great to clean through.
I think Hunt is an underated player. He can get the job done while others may look like they are going to get the job done !
Exactly. We talked about this before on here , sometimes he looks very akward/unstylish on the ball but his end product is very good. His corners and crosses create a lot of chances and we have seen this for both Ireland and his clubs.
At the time (a year or two ago) we were comparing him to McGeady and his nice approach play but with no end product although he (McGeady) had improved a lot since then.
He is a bit irratic at times but I am glad we have him as cover for Duff and to take over from him when he retires.
Duff will retire one day??
Say it ain't so.
Hunt - you cant falt him for workrate energy and passion. Unfortunatly internationally he is found wanting. You can have all the heart and desire to win but it only gets you so far
he has not got the skill level needed to step up. At best throw him on for the last 20 mins to shake things up, run at the defence and hope he can make something happen
Football is about end product, not keepie-ups, or aimless tricks which get you nowhere.
Hunt is not perfect but then Messi is not Irish.
This is an unbelievable opinion. How many goals did he set up in the last campaign? How many of them won (or saved) us points?
About 50/1. Now the odds on them conceding a last minute goal to be relegated must be 1/4.
Forget about the performance or entertainment. It's only the result that matters.
What's Mick's form with us? I think it's even.
Last minute game savers - Spain & Germany
Last minute losers Macedonia & Croatia
On Wolves, it's like one of these prison execution dramas, where they have made 2 endings and you don't which one is going to be used on the night.
They are pretty good odds. That means if you put €100 on Wolves to stay up with a last minute goal, you will lose €100.
Well wolves have averaged just over a goal a game, 41 in 36, so assuming the goals are spread evenly
that is abut 81-1 that a goal comes in the last minute. (depends on the definition of 'last minute' though).
Actually I see it says 'injury time' which is typically 3? minutes. So maybe you could say 27-1.
However there are probably more goals late on.
Then there is the issue of whether the goal actually keeps them up.
I suppose it is a fair price for a 'fun bet' but not one for the mortgage.
