I am old enough to remember the time when we were in Divisions 2 and 3 and the ATV programme "Star Soccer", which aired on Sunday, was mostly Wolves or Albion.  Ghastly.

When I was growing up it was Saint & Greavsie and it always seemed to be Steve Bull's Wolves that were featured.

I work with a dingle. He's a right misery guts. He's not looking forward to Sunday.

You trying to say there’s a wolves fan out there who has conceded that they aren’t going to take over the world?

Hopefully we show up at Molineux and make a proper fist of it at long last. Been far too easy for Wolves in their games against us in the Championship and Premiership, with exception of AEG last minute penalty winner in Covid times.

A win would be massive and could propel us into the top 4 . Huge game

I’m really hoping we’re just being prudent with Diaby and Kamara.

Yes. He's a smart guy. Probably the main difference between him and the rest of them

I don't know why this is even considered a derby. Isn't Wolverhampton a suburb of Stoke?

They think it’s a Derby, you never heard this when Blues and the Albion were in our division
