Irish Wolves and Opposition Irish

I echo elroy's comments regarding Mick, well done to him. Don't really like chelsea's players so glad to see them falter, do you reckon that's it for mr eyebrow?

Agree 100% I'd love to see him reign over a successful relegation dodge. Lots to do in that regard.

Moment of the night: Ashley Cole running half the pitch in the wrong direction with a pack of wolves in pursuit before being dispossessed.

Mícheál Ó Muircheartaigh would have had a field day with that!

Ex-Bohs trainee Matt Doherty to start for Wolves in defence against Doncaster today. He's had a rapid rise since signing in the summer - featured on the bench a number of times. Foley being rested.

Stephen Hunt just scored a peno v Doncaster.

**Uncle_Joe** · 15/01/2011, 2:31 PM

0-1 up against MCity, and apparently the far better team so far with 5 shots on target to citys 1 so far.
Im afraid to keep checking the score but hopefully Mick and wolves can get another scalp

Damn!

**paul_oshea** · 15/01/2011, 2:47 PM

im watching it last 20 mins all city, they will do well to hold out for the draw.

hunt has been fairly anonymous, fletcher and doyle providing lots of outlets, though i could count on one hand how many times doyle has been in the 18 yard box. he has given away a few silly passes though/easy possession.

stephen ward totaly at fault again for the goal, toure getting left unmarked as he was gazing at the ball in the air.

**paul_oshea** · 15/01/2011, 3:27 PM

mick has to invest in some backs. particularly a centre back.

i hope for his sake staying up doesnt come down to goal difference, it could be like another wc incident with penalties and not practising them.

Any of you who think Ward should be anywhere near the international team should just watch this match. Sure, everyone has an off day at the office from time to time but this was shocking.

**tricky_colour** · 15/01/2011, 9:54 PM

In the match analysis on MOTD showing Wolves defending he was noted for a 'brilliant tackle'.

But then you know more about football than Alan Hansen!!

The left back slagged off on MOTD was England international Wayne Bridge so going by that
Stephen would be good enough for England at least!

Defensively they need to get tighter. Mick has to get that defence sorted. Wolves should not be in the bottom three. If they start picking up more points from teams around them they should be no lower than 15th.

**tricky_colour** · 16/01/2011, 12:32 AM

Only Arsenal have put 3 past them at home this season, mind you they didn't let in 4.
Still they did nearly get something from the team at the top of the table.
I don't know it there is much point in them going to defend, they had only scored 6 away goals before this, Better to take Blackpool's approach and have a go.
If you can't defend might as well go all out on attack, it almost worked for them today.

**Noelys Guitar** · 16/01/2011, 2:06 AM

Wolves badly missed Foley today (and I am now convinced that he must play in central midfield for us as well) If Foley had have been fit then I am convinced Wolves would have got at least a point from this game. He is Wolves only player capable of delivering a measured pass. In the last 10 mins of the game Wolves had ample opportunites wasted by players not being able to play the right ball. Over hitting the pass. Something Foley does not do.

**paul_oshea** · 02/02/2011, 8:44 PM

I am getting very worried about wolves.

Ditto. Can easily see them being one of the doomed trio tbh.

**SwanVsDalton** · 02/02/2011, 8:59 PM

It's not looking good. They don't appear capable of getting themselves out of it, West Ham, Wigan et al look stronger.

**theworm2345** · 02/02/2011, 8:59 PM

I like Zubar and whenever I watch he plays really well but then he goes and does something like that...

**paul_oshea** · 02/02/2011, 9:02 PM

McCarthy needs to be able see his blind spots.

Thats tough though isn't it? Maybe he needs someone to point out his blind spots

**Stuttgart88** · 02/02/2011, 9:29 PM

I was following it on my phone. Doyle nearly broke the deadlock at the death, and then Bolton scored?

If footy matches were 85 minutes long Wolves would probably be mid-table.
