2nd win and another clean sheet!

Oh yes...yes, yes, yes! Could we finally be on the road to success?
3rd win and a 2nd clean sheet on the trot and now lying 8th with only
3 points between us and the leaders immaterial of today's games.

Well done Wolves, well don Ebanks-Blake, Sigurdarson and Ikeme (for
the clean sheet) and of course the rest of the team. This is where
it's impossible for me to comment on their play as living in Gibraltar
and us being in the Championship means I don't get to see the
match...can only follow what's happening on twitter and blogs.

I can hope though and with some great football and a little bit of
luck we might just be back on the TV every weekend in the
Premiership...so come you Wolves, for all your overseas supporters,
lets get back up there!

A clean sheet

Finally a clean sheet and a win too! 

So much sport has been on since I last posted, the Olympics, the Paralympics and a win for Andy Murray, now that's saying something....well done Andy! Team GB did any Brit proud in both the Olympics and Paralympics and to watch the passion, desire and want to win in these sportsmen and women was truly impressive. One that really stuck in my mind was Kate Walsh and her determination to continue, and then win the ladies hockey with a broken jaw!  http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/olympics/19046505  You have to admit this does call into question the strength of many a footballer when they go down after tripping over their own feet! 

Having said that, Wolves are finally managing to do something right, two wins and a clean sheet is starting to look good. I do like Stale's signing of Zubar, Nouble and Boukari and without a doubt Sako can he strike a ball or what, seems to be a good one, they all seem to want to win and work hard. With a little luck, as Stale said in his last interview, maybe it's our turn to have some, we could a few more wins in and the league?!

A win today against Peterborough could see us move right up the table and really give the opportunity to challenge for top spot come the end of the season. It is usually these games, the ones against the bottom team that hadn't won a game yet, that comes back to haunt us end of season. Normally I would say Peterborough haven't won yet but knowing our luck they will today, but yet today I feel that we could keep our game up and win...we always seem to play so much better against strong teams and then lose it all against the lesser teams, but not today, no not today.

Finally I must just say thank you to Terry Connor, what a position to find yourself in come end of a season. An impossible task...frankly very unfair to take a coach make him manager because you, the board didn't actually have anyone ready to step in, and then end his career at Wolves because he didn't manage to turn the team around! Laughable almost if it wasn't for the seriousness of a man losing his job!

Here's hoping we can make a 'run' of our success and win our third game...COME ON YOU WOLVES!

My prediction...Peterborough 1 Wolves 3 (hopeful?)
