Match Day Thread: Wolves v Fulham

[Kenny]

Not expecting a big crowd, maybe boosted by a few hundred of last minute fans wanting to pay their respects. See Jez on TV just now, the Fulham fans are using just 2 sections of the Steve Bull Lower.

 

[Kenny]

Ikeme; Iorfa, Batth (c), Stearman, Doherty; McDonald, Price, Henry, Evans, McAlinden; van La Parra.
Subs: Kuszczak, Edwards, Saville, Clarke, Ebanks-Landell, Jacobs, Dicko. #WWFCvFFC

 

[Tony Towner]

Edwards, Dicko, Hause out. Evans, McAlindon, Doherty in

 

[Lycan]

McAlinden left wing and van La Parra up front?

 

[darlowolf64]

Good chance for Liam McAlindon....

 

[Tony Towner]

Good chance for Liam McAlindon....

With a new forward signing in the offing I think tonight will decide whether he stays or goes on loan for the rest of the season

 

[east-coast-wolves]

Surely McAlinden will be up front? Why play a striker on the wing and a winger up front?

Dunno, that's just the way Wolves tweeted it. McAlinden played left wing in the cup vs Northampton didn't he?

Yeh, but Clarke was up top.

 

[croxdenabbey]

Surely Mac will play the striker role. RVLP hasn't found his shooting boots, just yet.

 

[Parkins left foot]

McAlinden will be up top with VLP out wide - wouldn't make sense to play it the other way around.

Glad he's not messed around with the defence (apart from the enforced change) - get the first goal & we should come out on top

 

[Jolemai]

No Ricketts again. Injured?

 

[Jolemai]

... and by the look of it, there are no streams available tonight.

 

[PuntsWolf]

No Ricketts again. Injured?

No just totally out of favour.

 

[Kenny]

No Ricketts again. Injured?

Coming to the end of his time with us.

Hause, Iorfa, EEL & Doherty all ahead of him now.

 

[Jolemai]

Yet Jackett would rather play Doherty at left back than play his captain?

/sigh

 

[croxdenabbey]

R5 Live.

 

[Alan]

Not a bad team. Good test for young Macca.

 

[Parkins left foot]

Ricketts was brought in at a time when we needed an experienced focal point to rebuild the team around after the mass clearout.

Did his job very well & IMO was a big part in the turn round of our fortunes. KJ clearly does not see him as part of the future (& that the youngsters are) & won't get a renewal of contract. However will go with my thanks for what he did for us.

 

[croxdenabbey]

Yes. Last chance saloon for Macca, methinks. I hope he gets a hat-trick. However, I think we will be fairly impotent, up front, until Dicko is introduced. Hope I wake up, in the morning, with the prospect of an away tie at Sunderland.
