How on earth does Whelan get in ahead of Onomah? Please explain....

Whelan can not play in a two man centre mid.

As many of us expected, our "revival" was oversold.

Or is it one 'defeat' in 9?

When you look at the games/teams/results in that period. It's not so impressive.
The performances too - dismal.

I think it's the comprehensive manner of the defeat. We were not only poor, we were set up wrong and again he failed to address it.

No-one mentioned 'revival'. We've been on a good run, not played well tonight and lost. It's happened and it will again. Like i said, it's how you bounce back.

Well, well, well........

Well beaten by a decent footballing side who play football on the front foot , with pace and purpose. Passed us off the park - but every team does that.

Surrounded by well pissed people - Fans fighting amongst themselves near us . The extra 2 and a half hours in the pub for a 5.30 kick meant that most the people round where I sat were shitfaced.

The unseasonly well warm weather caught a few out - B O everywhere .

Knew Bruce would go there hoping for a point - don’t remember their keeper making a save .

Play like that tonight and we will struggle to win our next three. SHA and Preston away and Fulham at home.

How many times have you left a game thinking that Bruce affected it positively rather than negatively?

4 hard fixtures this month, including today, these are the games that will determine our finishing position, not gubbing Burton.

It was predictable, as soon as we face any one decent this is what happens.

Even if we did go for a point it helps if the players are playing well. Our free kicks and corners tonight were diabolical.

Two weeks of fucking around again, like the last international break. We weren't geared up for tonight, we were gently bedding back in to the championship battle. Garbage Villa and Bruce.

And so far, you're right. By the same token, Cardiff who were top lost to a team who lost 6-1 last time out. Defeats happen.

flat track bullies sums it up perfectly.  5 games against teams in the top half have earned us 5 points, 7 games against the bottom half have earned us 14.  To get automatic promotion you need our bottom half form against everyone.

Clearly not any better than last year. How on earth have Wolves got so far ahead of us?

A plan. Spending wisely. Young hungry players and manager. Not signing prem cast offs. Not involving dinosaurs such as Keith Wyness, Steve Bruce, Stephen Clemence, Steve Round and Colin Calderwood is a good start
