Not saying it's the fans fault, just they can sometimes not help a situation. Over the previous two years, fans have cheered when Henry was substituted against Newcastle and booed when Hunt came on against Bristol City as two examples. Are we saying that is ok and helpful to the moral of players and the team?

We have to remember that players are people and not all are thick skinned. Someone like Clarke, for example, did not handle the boo boys very well, but went on to succeed at Coventry.

Lets hope he can finish as well

Doyler scores for QPR in a 3-3 draw

He plays his best stuff at the top end of the Championship.

WOLVES: McCarey, Ricketts, Batth, Stearman, Golbourne, Jacobs, McDonald, Price, Sako, Clarke, Dicko.

SUBS: Flatt, Doherty, Elokobi, Ebanks-Landell, Evans, Henry, McAlinden.

The blue and white hoops have inspired him to remember when he was a 25 goal a season man

Last week we had 28 strikers on the bench, now down to one.

Can't help thinking that Jackett has a very low boredom threshold and needs to make life as difficult for himself as is humanly possible.

Fair play for living on the edge

8 home grown players in todays squad, aint twitter great for info

Geordies streaming out of St. James's

Violent confrontations on the pitch.

Stewards working overtime.

mmmmmm overtime

Ebanks blake is wanderers number 9
Leigh Griffiths is wanderers number 9
Leon Clarke is wanderers number 9

Do we only buy strikers if their name fits

First thing I would do when getting the Wolves job will be to sign Łukasz Teodorczyk

Anybody read the open letter to Jeremy Peace?


Dear Mr Peace

Its time for a re-think. The club's recruitment strategy and processes have been an absolute shambles under Richard Garlick and the last two transfer windows have demonstrated extremely "muddled thinking".

We have a totally unbalanced squad and we have a disturbingly ageing squad. We have too many players who are simply no longer good enough for the Premiership. Far too much dead wood.

I fully accept that injuries to Sessignon, Anichebe and Sinclair have not helped at all. I accept that nobody could have foreseen Anelka's moment of madness. Nobody is to blame for that.

It is obvious to everyone that we needed a goal-scoring striker. But hang on - we have one called Berahino who is getting splinters in his backside from sitting on the bench.

We clearly need some defenders with pace. None signed, and it doesn't appear that we were looking for anybody.

What on earth would Craig Gardner have done to strengthen what we've got? We have plenty of midfielders. Wes Hoolahan? Decent player but would he strengthen us?

We are left with unwanted players, Dorrens, Popov and Rosenberg, who needed to be shipped out, not only to get them away, but also to free up wages for new signings.

What have you done with the Long transfer money? We aren't in debt. We need to spend money to shore our weak areas. You cannot say that we couldn't have afforded it.

I think you need to come out and state your ambitions for this club. Your comment a few months back that we were really a Championship club reeked then of lack of ambition. Some said that it was a comment made out of context, but maybe not.

This club is hurtling towards relegation. All the clubs around us have strengthened. Age has caught up with the squad and it is devoid of confidence. It needed an injection of fresh blood. It hasn't happened.

4 massive mistakes have been made in recent months:

1. Sacking Clarke without a replacement lined up. Would never have happened in Ashworth's time.

2. Appointing a head coach from abroad for his first job in England but refusing him to bring a trusted right hand man with him. A ridiculous decision.

3. An appalling August transfer window, which reeked of last minute panic. Wouldn't have happened in Ashworth's time.

4. An even worse January transfer window. Again, wouldn't have happened in Ashworth's time.

The club has become an unattractive one to manage because of its rigid coaching structure. It has become an unattractive one to players because the club lacks any ambition. We have become over-reliant on free transfers, loans and very cheap transfers with options to buy.

Richard Garlick has been an absolute disaster.

The transfer policy is an absolute shambles.

And to really cap it, you seem to be accepting that we are merely visiting the Premiership, despite finishing 10th, 9th and 8th in the past 3 seasons.

Well - you might be accepting the last point, but we fans are not. Patience is running out. Things have to change. You've done a great job but your lack of ambition is draining the life out of this club.

So - where do you see us in 3 years time? What is your exit plan? I think you are soon going to need one.


Fickle fan amnesia

think he's a number 10

Cold in the ground today. Hope we score a few so I can jump up and down.

Cold in the house today. Warming my hands on the lcd display of my radio.

Hot in my bath, before I totter off to work

Hi gents, 2 - 0 for me Dicko and Sako (or maybe Clarko or even McDonaldo)

Orient losing, think they might not get all 3 points today

Morning fellas

So Clarke does start........what is the formation?

Doyle scores lol, sounds to me like he had a good game, justifying the move I would say, he needed and deserved a fresh start.

So did poyet put another win on the board?

4 4 2 according to the commentary

Shane Long scores on debut for Hull against Spurs

We had better put a good performance in or Kenny is gonna get some heat today I reckon.
