Wolves concede a winning position again - 10 minutes to get the lead back (and try to get out of the bottom 3).
Wigan leapfrogged them for all of 3 minutes.

Johnson had been on the pitch for 18 seconds when he scored.
To be fair, Wolves didn't deserve to win. It looked increasingly likely fulham would score throughout the match. Wolves should be quite happy with the point imo. They're badly missing Doyler
Just a reminder of the run in.

I have put the opposition point in bold, 2 teams are safe 1 is right in it and another is virtually safe (Birmingham) but will want points next week. They also lost 5-0 today.

You forgot the Stoke game, which is on at 7.45pm tonight. I think 7 points from their last 5 might do it. They've managed 5 points in their last 5 games against much stronger opposition, so you never know. Their run in is as good as it gets anyway — 5 games against 5 teams of a similar standard.
I copied the list from this post:
http://foot.ie/threads/123420-Irish-...=1#post1461265
And assumed it was correct, anyway thanks for pointing that out.
Looks like a tough match for Wolves, a win for Stoke puts them safe for sure maybe a draw would suit both, Stoke definite won't want to lose (obviously).
Anyway, thanks for reminding me, I might see if I can find a stream, apparently Stephen Hunt
has recovered from injury and is available for selection.
Some match facts
Head-to-head
• Stoke have only won one of their last six home matches against Wolves, a 2-1 Championship victory in August 2004.
Stoke
• Stoke have only taken six points from their last eight games.
• They have not lost a league match in which they opened the scoring (W8, D4).
• The Potters have the worst first-half record in the division: they have led at the interval in only four of their 33 matches.
Wolves
• They have the worst away record in the top flight, accruing only two wins and eight points.
• Mick McCarthy's side have lost 18 league matches - the equal-most in the division with Blackpool.
• Kevin Foley could make his 150th start for Wolves

2:0 down at HT could have been more, can't see Wolves getting back into this one.
Pennant assist for first I think he should throw on Hunt asap someone has to make
an impact and the 11 wolves on the pitch have failed to do so.
Look at Hunty getting into it with Huth and Shawcross, reminds me a bit of this pic

ya awful bad tonight.you can buy a decent defense if you Wang.no excuse Mick is too short sighted or too ignorant - not in the thick sense - to make the purchase.it was the one thing that really annoyed me about him when managing Ireland
I'm a bloke,I'm an ocker
And I really love your knockers,I'm a labourer by day,
I **** up all me pay,Watching footy on TV,
Just feed me more VB,Just pour my beer,And get my smokes, And go away
I didn't see tonight's game but Wolves were poor in Saturday's game. Bad timing to have a bad run.
Wang? Paul, I can understand a misspelling and you did get close enough to the "t" on the keyboard, but why go to all the bother of capatalising the word?
I saw a fair bit of the game Stoke were always the stronger side Wolves created very little, mind you two of Stokes
goals were deflected but then they were the one pressurising the goal. Stoke look like they really wanted the result
and were pressing all the time, Wolves struggled to go forward, maybe they think there are easier points to be had on
the run in, and rightly so. Pennant was impressive
You'd have been surprised if Wolves had gotten anything out of this. Stoke are on a really good run right now and I'd fancy them to win at Wembley.
Sorry, Wangbley.

It is going to be a close call between Wolves and Wigan for the 17/18th spot
