Well they did get a goal but it was disallowed, good job the lines man spotted the offside, you are taking a big risk he get it right.

A minute earlier a fat(tish) 50(ish) bloke was shown in the crowd wearing a Wolves scarf and an Ireland hat. Has MIW been outed on TV?

Brilliant. He's gonna just love that.....

Didn't see the fella, however it fits an accurate description of a cousin of mine, so will probably be me in 20 years time.

Overjoyed at the result, especially after the disappointment of the Wigan game. Also, really pleased for Wardy, who deserves a place in the international squad for his commitment and adaptability alone. Thought Foley had a good game, keeping possession well in a relatively unfamiliar role - look forward to having him back at Right Back though when Henry/Mancienne return.

Rumours abound that we are going back in for Richard Dunne, which would be a great signing for us.

*cough cough* 10 years surely?

Yeah, Dunney would be a great coup for Wolves, I wonder how bad (if any at all) the fallout is with him and Houllier?

2 nil down to Avram Grant's West Ham. 15 minutes to go. Terrible result in the making for a team flirting with relegation.

**Charlie Darwin** · 01/01/2011, 4:05 PM

Word is Wolves dominated the game and conceded two goals on the break, the second moments after Ebanks-Blake had hit the bar.

**tricky_colour** · 01/01/2011, 4:17 PM

Unlucky own goal when wolves looked the better team, draw would have been a fair
result, West Ham are having a bit of a rejuvenation.

Watched the game on a stream. West Ham were by far the superior team in the first half, but Wolves came out flying after the break.

Very unlucky to concede a Zubar own goal after a terrible miss by Cole.

Really enjoying this game. Hunt put in a great corner kick which came off a Chelsea defender and in for a Wolves goal. Hunt has had two run-ins with John Terry so far. Doyle is playing really well and giving Terry a real battle. Would love to see Wolves winning this one. Foley is playing well. Very consistent player.

**Sullivinho** · 05/01/2011, 7:50 PM

I imagine Hunt is still a big hit with the Chelski fans. Can't see them hanging on but I'd be delighted if they did.

**tricky_colour** · 05/01/2011, 7:57 PM

Missed the goal unfortunately, didn't think anyone would have scored so early especially Wolves, but it's a good game.
Chelsea nearly scored, but I am hoping wolves can get the 3 points, that would be too good to be true!

**Noelys Guitar** · 05/01/2011, 8:00 PM

Terry grabbed Hunt by the back of the neck in one exchange. Hunt is back to full fitness and is all over the park getting stuck in. Great to see although he was lucky not to be booked for one mad lunge on Malouda. MM had Wolves defending from the stands for the last few mins of the first half. Mick's teams always go too deep late in halves/games when defending a lead. But he is still doing a good job at Wolves IMO.

**Sullivinho** · 05/01/2011, 8:38 PM

Wolves bite Chelsea. 1-0. The lycanthrope in me is joyous

**Stuttgart88** · 05/01/2011, 8:47 PM

Wolves out of bottom 3.

**Charlie Darwin** · 05/01/2011, 9:16 PM

Paul Merson at one point said: "They're defending like Wolves!" I got a fright - thought they must have conceded 3 goals in my absence.

Could be right back in it next week, only 1 point separating the bottom 4 and 2 points separating bottom 7.
Very competitive league, even Liverpool are only 4 points above the drop.

They ware only out on goal difference too.

Blimey!! I just realise Aston Villa are the team which dropped into the relegation zone.

Nerve wrecking stuff but great win for Wolves. MOM was Hunt. He was all over the pitch and really got stuck into Chelsea as well as playing some very tidy football. Created the goal and hit the angle of the upright and crossbar with a wonderful free kick. Hilarious stuff at the end of the game with Drogba trying to get at Hunt. Little and large show with Mick stepping in to grab a hold of Drogba.

**geysir** · 05/01/2011, 9:40 PM

I'm not even a Wolves fan, yet I could barely watch that game.
Hunt has some extreme stamina levels.

**elroy** · 05/01/2011, 9:50 PM

Delighted for Mick in particular, he is a great supporter of Irish players and that alone shouldnt be underestimated. They have an awful run of games coming up so that win was very much needed. Ironically Mick was saying before the game how games against the teams in the top half are where they have done well this season, its the lower end scraps that they have suffered in.

**Noelys Guitar** · 05/01/2011, 9:56 PM

They have just signed Sidwell on loan with Wolves agreeing to pay Sidwell's 35,000 a week. Shows they have the money if Robbie Keane is interested in moving back.
