Just read about a surprise move for Sa to Saudi. What surprise to me it's been obvious for sometime that he was being replaced by either Ramsdale or Johnstone because he was heading for a financial bonanza before he retires. See this happening in the next couple of days or in January. Watch this space.

I thought Sa moving to Saudi was common knowledge.
2.) 01 Sep 2024 21:25:53
I think he was being facetious.

Well on the basis of last nights performance Luca Koleosho not worth anything like £30m.
1.) 29 Aug 2024 11:59:53
He didn’t play!
2.) 29 Aug 2024 12:14:09
Ah. I wondered who would notice and that's why he's not worth £30m. Thanks for that Gracoi it gave me a good laugh.
21 Aug 2024 19:13:17
What is going on? It appears despite it being obvious that replacements will be needed that nobody has a target list and we are just casting around for anyone that's cheap and average at best. The praises have been sung of Hobbs in the past but I can only judge him as a disappointment at the moment, no plan and no delivery. I had hoped for better but?
1.) 21 Aug 2024 21:45:27
How do you know there’s no target list? I don’t understand how people know what the plan is or isn’t at wolves. Has anyone known who we would sign before we signed them in the last few seasons? Please tell us all your inside knowledge and what you base your statement on. Thanks
2.) 21 Aug 2024 21:47:03
Wait until 1st Sept, Mike. Funny how so many think they know what's going on between Hobbs and O'Neil but it's all conjecture really. The reality is that all clubs have a list of potential targets and I'll bet there are names on Wolves' list that haven't been mentioned anywhere. That's no guarantee that we'll get any of them but at least some business was done early in the window.
3.) 22 Aug 2024 19:36:27
I don't profess to know what's going on between Hobbs and O'Neil but I do believe we will be outbid on all experienced targets ( if there are any) because it is known that WW can't or won't compete for tried and tested Premier League players. I'm happy to wait until 1st September but I hold little optimism that anything that will improve the team will happen. I'm not a pessimist by nature but I see little to make me optimistic thus far. Too many failed predictions.
4.) 22 Aug 2024 23:29:59
Like Dawson or Lemina, I get your point we tend not to go for prem players mainly due to their larger wages but yet again your claim is wrong. Just like saying there isn’t a target list.
5.) 23 Aug 2024 09:00:04
mikebayleaf you are so right I believe hobbs is just a yes man what shi says he does oneil too

Good news Che Adams set for medical with Torino.
1.) 22 Jul 2024 08:02:33
Good news
2.) 22 Jul 2024 09:23:46
Better news, we signed Starnd Larsen.
3.) 22 Jul 2024 14:21:31
Wud still have him over any1 the kids on the bench when u might need a goal.in last20mins.simple as that
4.) 22 Jul 2024 18:37:54
I agree fordhouses_jack, on a free we should have done the deal
26 Jun 2024 19:00:25
Not a wolves banter but I am disgusted by the reaction to the England team's performance at the Euros. Christ they just won the group, maybe that is not enough for the so called fans and pundits these days. Lineaker, Neville and Shearer you should hang your heads in shame. Why are you pundits - because you couldn't hack it as managers yet you have the gall to call Southgate who has been the most successful England manager since Ramsay, I can hold you in anything but contempt. Lineaker worth £1.4m for what he does is a joke. The reason England have struggled is that every team they have played has parked the bus - why because that was their best strategy not to get taken to the cleaners. The next stages will probably be different but I find myself hoping that England don't win because the so called fans don't deserve it. Get behing the team thick or thin!
1.) 26 Jun 2024 22:53:09
The performances have been shocking. I agree with the pundits having a go. They have been there and had it done to them so are better placed than most. Remember 1988 when we lost all 3 games and the press tried to curtail Linekers zengland career or Euro 96 when they were demanding Shearer was dropped. It is not a new thing and had England been playing decent football, then maybe they wouldn't be criticised.
2.) 26 Jun 2024 23:03:30
Well said mikebayleaf
If England win every game from now on by one nil and win the final by an own goal I don't care. History will never say how but but how many.
3.) 27 Jun 2024 02:28:43
The fans paid a lot of money to go watch England, the anger towards Southgate was justified he should have gone after the Denmark match.
4.) 27 Jun 2024 10:39:25
Southgate seems to be falling into the trap of picking players and asking them to play roles they aren't naturally familiar with at club level, like so many past England managers.
5.) 27 Jun 2024 19:18:13
Agree they've been shocking.
And are rightly criticised.
But we're thru. And in the best side of the draw.
So it's up to the players to show .grit determination, and play like they do every time in the prem.
They won't get a better chance of reaching the final, this time
Surely they will perform better
Surely Southgate can see who's been carried, and will be brave enough to drop them to the bench, where they deserve to be
Come on England
6.) 27 Jun 2024 20:20:40
England players play in the Premier League but they’re not the premier players.
7.) 28 Jun 2024 11:01:10
True Greyleg, the way the draw has opened up this is one of the best chances we'll ever get, and on Germanys patch as well!

You mean Johnstone, goalkeeper?
03 Sep 2024 11:54:54
Judging by his farewell message he clearly didn't ever see himself as a Wolves player. Like with Saudi probably just taking the dollar. Well IMO we are better off without him. Have a nice time in the free society you are going to. Worth every penny I suspect.
30 Aug 2024 16:50:44
Late link to Chalobah.
28 Aug 2024 18:19:58
Dendonker would give flexibilty at the back and in midfield. Never let WW down IMO and when he played we rarely lost. I'm in for this one but if true it shows desperation.
25 Aug 2024 10:57:42
Ipswich appear to be paying £12m plus £3m performance based add ons. Market value is a subjective matter. Can only assume WW didn't really want O'Shea and have someone else up their sleeve. If not trouble ahead as the CB's aren't good enough.

It's rather ironic that GON was recently being touted as a candidate for the England vacancy and now wouldn't fare well with a Sunday League team.
31 Oct 2024 15:20:10
Eastmidswolf2 you are pedantically splitting hairs on an irrelevant technicality. The point remains that without a dramatic change in fortunes relegation beckons and the start of the season fixture list will be repeated in the New Year. I don't care about your rediculous stats comments, they are totally irrelevant in relation to the point made
29 Oct 2024 07:27:50
Have to say that with the last win 19 games away (that's half a season) I'm staggered that GON is still there. Alright we have had a tough fixture list but this will come again in the New Year and a performance anywhere near the run we have had will result in relegation.
20 Oct 2024 16:26:19
Oh dear we was robbed again, get real not good enough, here comes the Championship.
05 Oct 2024 17:36:43
Should have let him go to South of France.
