Wolves 0 - Blackburn 0 - going for a new record verdict thread

Yes frank, but ball playing centre halves back in those days were rarer than rocking horse shit, and he was monster at slapping in a firmer than necessary tackle.

Wolves had an excellent ball playing centre half back then. Now what was his name...?
 
Hank Mungo???............. something like that anyway.

Wish we had a player called Hank Mungo - brilliant name

As to scapegoating - really not sure thats whats going on. If a player continually puts in weak performances he gets called out for it, particularly if he keeps getting picked over someone who has shown better quality previously.

Doherty has been a whipping boy at times quite fairly due to how he performed - of late he has improved and has seemingly (at least in the short term) eliminated much of the worst traits & is not now being lambasted. If he can keep this level up then he will not be criticised, if he doesn't & reverts to previous levels he will.

No reason that any other player cannot aspire to that, though the performances have to improve to get that accolade
 
I just don't understand why someone who pays a not inconsiderable amount of cash to watch Wolves isn't entitled to an opinion, right or wrong.

if your paying for his ticket , it's still his opinion, and remember footie is a piece of piss when your arse is glued to a chair, or the bar stool.
 
But Doherty (or SuperDoc as me and my family are calling him lately) is a perfect example of this not being true. People who have previously slated him have been giving him excellent ratings from games because he has been excellent.

I think the emergence can be partly attributed to the dull negative midfield KJ has employed in front of them. It is very very functional but this means we have no creativity going forward. Coady and Saville are very good at what they are being asked to do. Dave Edwards was very good at what he was asked to do. Meanwhile our best midfielder (who can control and pass a football ) has been bombed out and is on his bike by the look of it. The whole team was very functional yesterday but like previous weeks didn't look like it would score in a brothel. Although we have clean sheets our defence is still ultimately not good enough.
 
More aimed at Holsgrove really, the more criticism our players have received the more they've received my support.

And if that opinion was about players then that's fine. What fans aren't entitled to do is tell other fans what they should think or accuse them of thinking a certain thing about a player. If a fan says they are not scapegoating a player then their opinion counts the same. Unless of course those doing the accusing are paying for all tickets or we live in China.

I didn't expect you of all people to be so touchy. Seems I've upset you, for which I apologise for as that's the last thing I set out to do on here, and anyone else upset at being called a scapegoat today.

I'm gonna banish myself to molineux way as punishment.
 
It was given as offside

Only once the shot was blocked and then hit Saville who was standing in an offside position after his header. The Mason shot though was on target and blocked by the hand of Duffy i think.

A more fitting punishment would be to arch the highlights of our last two home games again! :gloom:

And rightly so....

This season's DVD is going to be a must buy (but only for someone that you don't like that much)
