Will Wolves be up for it Friday?

[WJ99mobile]

Hopefully we will make it physical. An extra days rest over Wolves.

[Former Labour leader]

They will be looking to get our guys sent off.

[Des Parrot]

I think we should rest our decent players for the other games. We don't want to lose players to their cloggers.

Most Red cards, most fouls resulting in yellow cards, they're a dirty bunch!

I know it's tongue in cheek (slightly) but I think we're going to need to win all our home games so would prefer we had a good go at them on Friday without putting the last 10% of effort in. The danger of course is to avoid running on empty for the Villa game which is more important IMO. I think Villa are suffering as a result of the effort they expended in beating Wolves and we don't want to find ourselves in the same situation.

I think it's more that after they beat Wolves and were on such a great run, they thought they were invincible and just needed to turn up to beat QPR.

[Louth]

Rest our best players? What sort of statement is that?

Totally ridiculous.

That;s just nonsense,Totally different game on Friday.Wolves will play it at a much slower pace then UTD -I think that will suit us.

If we beat Wolves then even if we lose to Villa we will still be in a strong position. I hope you dont mean the bit which says only play at 90% to save ourselves for the Villa game - if you do then it is a ludicrous thing to say at this stage of the season.

Whoosh ... taken from the Wolves forum, just returned to them

It’s okay - I got it :thumbup:

[dembethewarrior]

I think Warnock set up not to lose tonight, hence hoofing the ball every time we had it.

We got away with it because Pilkington popped up. I think we should have played like we have the last few games and kept the momentum going for Friday.

Maybe it will be a boost to the players not to have lost, so we may still get that momentum, hope we take it to wolves.

I'd be very tempted to play a weakened team against Cardiff, as I think there's a real danger of serious injury to the likes of Neves and Jota. Despite his warm words of support, Colin will be ruthless if he needs to get points off us to the extent of telling his players 'not to hold back' (nudge nudge wink wink), i.e. give them licence to deliberately go out to injure. If that happens, it could impact our vital last few games, and make the necessary wins much more difficult. It's a sad day when football has descended to the level where you even have to suggest this, but I think it may be the right thing to do if we have been winning up to the Cardiff game. We might just have to deliberately risk a defeat to secure promotion.

[The Bob Banker Spanker]

Teams have seen how to strangle our attack tonight e.g. Block Hoilett and Ken
Let's hope we have a different plan for Friday.
On the plus side conditions should be better with the pitch in a better state than tonight.

Remember it posted a few weeks ago, made me laugh tbh.

I meant what I posted. I want us to have a real go but don't put everything into this one game as we don't want to lose important players for far more winnable matches. This could take the form of playing Madine, Bryson, Peltier and other players who've not had a great deal of minutes recently from the off and asking them to put everything in.

Wolves play with really advanced quick wing backs so we need to reduce their space and keep up with them for pace. It'll be interesting to see how NW sets us up for this match...

[Gofer Blue]

Will Wolves be up for it on Friday? Nah, they'll just roll over and gift us 3 points. :facepalm:

I assume he wrote that nonsense before they had 2 men sent off at Middlesborough and seriously lost their heads!

I doubt it would make any difference. They are a tunnel visioned delusional lot taken in by the anti-Cardiff propaganda.

But we want/need to win the Wolves game and playing at 90% will guarantee we lose, so whats the point of that ?. We are more likely to lose at Villa if we lose on Friday. We need to get promoted at the earliest opportunity and not give Fulham any hope..

Make your post clearer. It'll save me replying.

Read Molyneuxmix tonight. They are back to their delusional best and have written us off again. We are now wasting our time getting promoted as we will come straight back down, whilst they will be pushing for European qualification. They appear incapable of grasping that we are where we are on merit or that we actually beat them earlier in the season.

They're a bit worried we're going to kick them off the park again ffs :hehe:

[dml1954]

They have also picked up on our thread from a few days ago stating that 23500 tickets have been sold for Friday. A number have said how poor that is, totally forgetting that there was a week to go before the game and also assuming that the 23500 included their allocation and that obviously it us to do with NW's over physical approach, hoofball and lack of belief by the fans. They are going to have a big shock when they roll up to a full stadium Friday and hear the noise.

There are no guarantees in anything.

Thought you were the positive one around here..

[life on mars]

They will want revenge for our snarling win at their den, they will be hungry like a wolf to win , and will show us their frightening fangs ,and hunt us down in packs .

We need a rally nasty encounter to take place , no frills ,beat em up ,wind em up game , and we have the personal and attitude to do it .

[SuisseBluebird]

Friday marks a perfect opportunity to get a result against Wolves.

They have 1 less rest day than our team and also have to travel away to Cardiff. I hope we give it to them on the night as getting 3 points would pile the pressure back on the chasing pair ahead of their weekend fixtures. Fulham travel to a resurgent Sheffield Wednesday and Villa travel to Norwich.

Someone pointed out to them they are below us for fair play too.....

Are those two players banned them and are they critical first teamers ??

[dml1954]

They are both banned for tonights game against Hull but not for Friday - unless tonights game is postponed of course !!.
Neves and Docherty are two of their best players.

[Igovernor]

Take each game at a time, not worry about the next one till it comes around:thumbup:
