WM has been a joke for years.

Their 90 minute commentaries are still o.k but they lack an expert co-commentator.

Said it loads of times but there's no need to have a phone in five nights a week, don't think even BBC London do it every night with all their teams.

One on Monday reacting to the weekends games and then on Friday is enough plus the reaction on the Saturday.

Great.  Means that idiot Eddie will be on the phone-in again on a regular basis.

Wanksy has been off for a week and I've noticed as a result:

1. With Wilford and or Regan presenting it the show is a lot more balanced.

2. There are lots more calls got in.

3. Neither of them 'put it out there'.

He needs to be put out to grass sharpish.

He's probably masturbated himself into a coma over Wolves’ performance on Saturday evening.

Plenty of them are. They seem to have confused beating a Villa team that weren't prepared to attack with this meaning they are the reincarnation of Brazil 1970.

Even though he predominantly covers SHA on WM, Richard Wilford is a pretty good presenter.

"Rego" is Villa isn't he?

Exactly Wolves have obviously been promoted as of 14th October.  They blew an 11 point lead at the top of this league once.

Yep I remember his interview years ago in H&V and Dave pretty much writing it as him being a Villa fan without him confirming it. So of course he goes the other way to completely hide any bias by constantly criticising everything the club does.

At least with someone like Tom Ross you know where you stand with who he supports and in fairness he genuinely wants to see West Midlands football do well.

There was one on last night saying that not only was Saturday the best ever performance he had seen by a Wolves side in his 40 years of watching them, but that they are also the best side to have featured in the Championship since it was formed along with the Premier League.

They're a more than decent championship side but good grief......

Two 'epic whoppers' mentioned on the same page it seems.

It's not just him though.  The advert for their Christmas panto even includes a dig at Villa.
