Your heart may be ruling your head, but it has to be admired. I hope you are right.

I haven't a clue who plays for them and I shouldn't be asking really as it may scare me, but do they have any household names?

A hard working side,had a good start to the season,and here is me still thinking draw . Plus Fulam-Norwich,3 points from these matches Wow ,this must be a bridge to far We are optimistic of pushing hard for promotion with new billionaire Chinese owners. As well as a new manager, Italian legend ex-goalkeeper Walter Zenga, we now also have a first few squad of about 25, having brought in no less than 13 new players this transfer window, including breaking our record transfer fee of £7.5million for Ivan Cavaleiro. The full breakdown of the new additions is as follows: Andy Lonergan - The former Preston, Leeds and Bolton goalkeeper arrived from Fulham on a two-year-deal. Helder Costa - On loan from Benfica, the 22-year-old attacker was the second summer addition. Silvio - Portuguese international defender, Silvio, moved to Wolves on a one-year-deal from Atletico Madrid. Joao Teixeira - The highly-rated Benfica attacking midfielder arrived on a season-long loan. Jon Dadi Bodvarsson - After competing with Iceland during their impressive Euro 2016 campaign, the 24-year-old forward signed for Wolves on a three-year deal. Prince Oniangue - Arriving from Ligue 2 side Stade de Reims, the Congo captain signed a four-year-deal at Molineux. Cameron Borthwick-Jackson - The England Under 19 international and Manchester United defender arrived on a season-long loan. Ola John - The 24-year-old Benfica winger who spent last year with Reading joined Wolves on a season-long loan. Paul Gladon - The Dutch striker signed on a three-year-deal at Molinuex from Eredivisie side Heracles Almelo. Jack Ruddy - The promising young goalkeeper arrived from Bury to join up with Wolves' Under 23 side. Romain Saiss - The Moroccan international midfielder arrived from Ligue 1 side Angers on a four-year-deal. Richard Stearman - Stearman returned to Molineux for his second spell with the club on a season-long loan from Fulham. Ivan Cavaleiro - The highly-rated Portuguese international arrived from AS Monaco for a club record fee on a five-year-deal. |

That looks quite scary. However, all games will look scary this season. We've acquitted ourselves well.
I am confident we'll have a good go at them. A draw would be amazing. This is the Brewers. Nothing is impossible.

I wonder what the late, great, one-club William Ambrose Wright (born Ironbridge 1924) would make of this 2016 Wolves team..... not many from the West Midlands in there..... Times change eh? |

I'm not sure if this is the right place for this. Nora can decide, but I think following the views of Sleepless it is worth an airing. I am biased I know having always preferred football to rugby, but I have watched a fair bit of rugby on TV, and also been to Peel Croft to see our local rugby team. I have enjoyed some of the rugby on offer, particularly when there is fast open play. The difficulties I have with the game, is although the players and ref know exactly what the free kicks are being awarded for, this is certainly often not clear to me. But the main problem is at the very heart of the game, the scrummage. This seems to take so long to achieve, that many frankly very boring minutes are squandered with no play taking place. This though I'm sure is to the rugby fraternity, a sacrosanct part of the game. Rugby League have pretty well cracked this hold up in play. Very few scrummages take place, and are quickly played.
With football I can see also where Sleepless is coming from, but the successful game we have played have not been so negative in my opinion, and more importantly is far from negative now, and in fact very entertaining. What do others think?

Come from area near Derby,where very little rugby is played,and no rugby pitches, at our schools.so have never shown interest in the sport,
Each to their own football keeps me busy,fishing-golf-cycling-Cricket-athletics, snooker-- many sports leave room for football,But rugby seems one or the other

Rugby rules have changed significantly over the past decade and more to keep the game flowing - sometimes at breakneck speed. If you play the game you will appreciate the scrum time. Rugby rules can be quite technical.
You could say football is spoilt by the time it takes for throw-ins and goal kicks.
Anyway, as said, each to his own. I like sports in general, having played both Rugby comes out best for me.

We will likely have a few local lads in the first 11. Danny Batth (Captain, Centre Half) is from the WM, Dave Edwards and Jack Price are both from Shrewsbury.
Regarding the match day programmes, we have specially produced cartoon covers for each opponent this season. Here is the one for our match against you-

Not my thing really, I only went to have a look see, my mate used to play for them and he invited me. |
