typically Rafa and the team he sent out were just perfect to do a job on us last week. Maybe he should have started with that big lump Murphy today as well.

admittedly i've not watched them loads but they've been shit most times i have, we shd've beaten them home and away, can't see them doing owt in the Prem without a major rehaul, probably starting with a new manager

two for ryan sessegnon, born when 'oops i did it again' was #1

haha actually no it was #2... 'don't call me baby' was top :)

can feel a rough equalizer slouching towards Molineux

c'mon you hoops, last minute winner pls!

Wolves‏Verified account @Wolves 54s54 seconds ago

90+3 It's almost heartbreak for Wolves. The ball is whipped across the box and falls to Ajayi 2 yards from goal. He skies it over the bar.

i just can't

this is Rotherham

Congrats on a heroic win NV :)

Le Bateau Ivre, Saturday, 11 March 2017 16:55 (seven years ago) link

You too Calzino. Shame Leeds didn't lose but it's nice that Hudds is walking away from them.

Le Bateau Ivre, Saturday, 11 March 2017 16:56 (seven years ago) link

Wagner beat the MOM curse as well, which is pleasing considering the amount of moaning from Bellend Rd about him receiving it after his act of villainy (celebrating a late goal in a local derby game).

calzino, Saturday, 11 March 2017 17:01 (seven years ago) link

we didn't lose at home to walsall, tony watt did a thing

I've had more fun in a dentist - Fuson sack Lambert and get Pardew in

you...have to...laugh...

could badly do with Girl With Curious Orange watching Blackburn get smashed on Tuesday

'We need a manager who shares our values and who is prepared to develop the team.

'The Brighton game was so far from what we expect to see from those wearing a Derby County shirt.'

I do wish Mr Candy Crush had sacked the useless fucker before the Brighton game and lol at the very idea that pissing away too much money on average players represents values rather than just thoughtless blunt force going badly wrong.

some clueless cunt in the Express & Star will be calling for Shteve to get the Wolves job tomorrow, have no fear

snappy baritone (Noodle Vague), Sunday, 12 March 2017 21:53 (seven years ago) link

Well he has done a few big jobs in his time!

calzino, Sunday, 12 March 2017 22:17 (seven years ago) link

jumbo jobbies!

calzino, Sunday, 12 March 2017 22:27 (seven years ago) link

Looking from the outside it's strange how quickly things have gone wrong for Wolves. It all looked fairly promising a few weeks ago when they spent all that money on Helder Costa and won at Liverpool in the FA Cup.

I feel bad for Paul Lambert and I'm not entirely sure why. He looks like the manager of a Glasgow curry house that's slowly going down the tubes.

We play Wolves immediately after Blackburn, and I feel like we're going to give one of those teams a boost. I know every supporter of every football team in the world comes out with this old OOH THESE ARE THE SORT OF GAMES WE LOSE schtick as a kind of reverse jinx, but we lost 4-0 at home to Bristol City this season so I feel it's justified. Fulham like to fart on dreams just as surely as Tim Ream stealing a hat-trick off a 16-year-old.

Girl with Curious Hair, Sunday, 12 March 2017 23:04 (seven years ago) link

sounds like we've been hammering on Brentford's goal the whole 2nd half and just when i thought it was all over, boom, equalizer

plenty of time to concede, like

Pengest & Corsa (Noodle Vague), Tuesday, 14 March 2017 21:31 (seven years ago) link

BOOOOOM

Pengest & Corsa (Noodle Vague), Tuesday, 14 March 2017 21:32 (seven years ago) link

you're not forgiven yet Lambert, sit down

Pengest & Corsa (Noodle Vague), Tuesday, 14 March 2017 21:32 (seven years ago) link

and Fulham go in front, no evening can be this perfect

Pengest & Corsa (Noodle Vague), Tuesday, 14 March 2017 21:34 (seven years ago) link

FINISHED

Blackburn equalize - commiserations Curious - but suddenly we're 4 points above the drop zone with a game still in hand and Lambert has earned himself the right to stay until the next time we drop points and/or i have a couple of drinks

Pengest & Corsa (Noodle Vague), Tuesday, 14 March 2017 21:41 (seven years ago) link

GET IT UP YOU FRANCHISE CUNTS :)

Blandford Forum, Tuesday, 14 March 2017 22:24 (seven years ago) link

well done

About fucking time!

i know they're all endlessly watchable but this is outstanding

I'm sure I saw Hudson in that clown-shoes melee. We have shipped 17 goals in 4 of the recent games Hudson has started, and last night as well as having a defensive mare he took out our midfield lynch-pin in an accidental collision. Not his fault, but you can't replace Hefele with someone who would be too slow for a conference side without expecting a major team dynamic collapse.

calzino, Saturday, 18 March 2017 10:20 (seven years ago) link

new Lambert was the right man for the job

Pengest & Corsa (Noodle Vague), Saturday, 18 March 2017 15:39 (seven years ago) link

you'll have some problems hanging onto that hot-shot Edwards this summer!

I'LL TAKE A FIVER

Pengest & Corsa (Noodle Vague), Saturday, 18 March 2017 16:58 (seven years ago) link

C'mon Leeds, for the first time in my life i want you cunts to score!

That is bizarre, apropos of nothing I found myself watching this earlier - where the Luton chairman had a bogus phone-in to choose the new manager and give it to Mike Newell anyway!

calzino, Thursday, 23 March 2017 21:27 (seven years ago) link

Our director of football has made an untidy exit to Norwich, well I read something earlier about him getting put onto temporary garden leave so it doesn't sound like the cunt was giving out goodbye kisses. It looks like they are trying to blag Heckingbottom from Barnsley as well. Hope they fucking fail as dismally as one of Delia's shit recipes that tells you to use processed caramelised onions to save time.

calzino, Friday, 24 March 2017 18:43 (seven years ago) link

His first act should be to give big Cam a 5 year contract extension of course!

calzino, Friday, 24 March 2017 18:44 (seven years ago) link

I'm getting the feeling he is an overrated corporate twonk myself, with a bit of bitterness because I know he will doing his upmost to break up the band next season. But this guy was head of recruitment at Wolves when they signed Clarke for 750k and Saville for a million, he can't be all that!

calzino, Friday, 24 March 2017 20:05 (seven years ago) link

Leon still can't believe we paid that much for him, never mind me

millwallreptile (Noodle Vague), Friday, 24 March 2017 20:08 (seven years ago) link

Looking at your local rag, when he was came to us it was a promotion from Chief Talent Spotter at yours to Director of Football, so in other words as a no.2 he could take the credit for the decent signings and say Leon who?

Tbf the non-Wagner signings have been inspired, but some of that can be pure dumb luck and not necessarily a skill to bring elsewhere. Some of our lot seem to think he discovered Wagner, but he was on the verge of being offered the Liverpool no.2 spot and had a long association with Klopp. Hardly under the radar really.

calzino, Friday, 24 March 2017 20:20 (seven years ago) link

scuse the bad engliss

calzino, Friday, 24 March 2017 20:21 (seven years ago) link

Wheeler (88' minutes), Brown (90'+1 minutes), Reid (90'+2 minutes)

some comeback is that

calzino, Saturday, 25 March 2017 18:08 (seven years ago) link

hope Tim chronicles his post-match drinking on the UK beer thread

an uptempo Pop/Hip Hop mentality (imago), Saturday, 25 March 2017 18:53 (seven years ago) link

something with a hint of preserved fruit and slightly jammy taste maybe?

calzino, Saturday, 25 March 2017 19:32 (seven years ago) link

Hahaha I saw we were 3-0 down and decided not to think about football for a bit. Went to the alehouse. Have only learned of that comeback from this thread. For once I could chronicle my drinking on the UK beer thread because I found out (while not thinking about football) that Tiny Rebel Clwb Tropicana is (improbably) delicious beer that tastes like Five Alive. Anyway now I'm drinking gin so I'm doubly off-topic.

Tim, Saturday, 25 March 2017 21:19 (seven years ago) link

:D thanks for the tip! devon is YOURS (even though you drew)

congrats! what league are you in next?

calzino, Sunday, 26 March 2017 00:47 (seven years ago) link

Evostik Southern, currently being won by Chippenham but also featuring Leamington, Hitchin, Frome and Merthyr (which if Cinderford go down will be our derby match. In another country. Unless Worcester get relegated.)
