The game

Scoreline Prediction:

Gerald - Feeling strangely optimistic, Wolves 1 - 0 Man City

Sam - 1-2. Although I wouldn't be too surprised to see us snatch a draw!

One to watch:

Gerald - Matt Jarvis, surely an England internation in the near future

Sam - Matt Jarvis. Very close to an England call-up for the last batch of internationals. I fear for our chances of holding onto him next summer, whether we are still playing in the Premier League or not.

Do you feel your current league position belies the way the team has been playing as of late:


Gerald - Not really, although we expected another tough season we're playing some decent football. Our main issue is that we're not clinical enough in front of goal, but we're creating the chances.

Sam - Definitely not - it's the same old story for us, we play some pretty good stuff at times and create chances easily, yet we can never stick them away.


General Wolves

What has been your favourite memory/moment from supporting Wolves:

Gerald - Steve Bull's loyalty, which is something that has gone missing in today's game. Of course, when he got his first cap, it was a proud day for the club. I would've said when one of our promotions, but sadly we haven't really pushed on from them as of yet.


Sam - Probably the Play-off final win against Sheffield United back in 2003. Closely followed by the 4-3 comeback victory against Leicester, and the 1-0 win over Man Utd, both in the following season.

And the worst:

Gerald - Relegation to the old 4th Division in 1986 is the one that stands out the most.

Sam - The entire reign under Hoddle. I don't think I've ever seen such an inept idiot in charge of a football team in my life, words can literally not express how awful he is. He had a team strong enough to battle for promotion from the Championship, and almost took us into League 1, almost ruining the club in the process. Thank god Super Mick came along and got us into the play-offs with a team of nobodies the next season!

If you could sign a player from the City squad (wages etc irrelevant), who would you choose:

Gerald - Carlos Tevez, he's workrate is second to none and he's a proven goalscorer.

Sam - David Silva. I love that little genius, and I'm glad he's found his feet quickly in English football, because for some reason not many people seemed to realise just how good he was.

If you could place a past Wolves player into the current team, who would it be:

Gerald - Quite obviously Steve Bull. He's the big man up front we're missing right now

Sam - Being only 19, I can really only pick a player from our days of being in what is now the Championship! So I'm going to have to go with Steve Bull. The way we create chances, all we need is someone to start sticking them in the back of the net, and who better than Bully to do that job? Wolves legend.
