    Clearly Denis the Menace is ruled out. At his press conference the Boss revealed that Odoi was yet another player to have had a baby in the last few days, adding "that's probably given him more of a headache then the concussion ". Otherwise everyone else is good to go.


    Wolves have no injuries so expect their normal team - a strength has been them being able to play a consistent team throughout this campaign - and lining up 3 -5 -2.

    They've had an absolutely fantastic season and despite the disappointment of just missing out on a Cup Final are favourites for a Europa spot. Indeed they could very easily have been challenging the 'big names' for a Champions League place but for one very strange thing - they've struggled to get results against teams at the bottom of the Division.


    Guess Christie will come in for Odoi. The main question is whether Mawson will start and if so which of the left footers will partner him? Le Marchand has a 'free flowing' nature about his football but suspect the more solid, more seasoned Ream will get the nod. Wee question perhaps between Sessegon and Ayite? Probably not.

    Let's hope that Parker can keep his momentum going, but it will be tough against a Wolves side who's home form has been solid.
    I expect he won't stray too far from the lineup C58 has set out.
    Lots of side questions to be answered.
    Will Scott be given the job for next season? Does that hinge on the last 2 games ?
    Will an announcement about Season Tickets and New Riverside stand be made before the Newcastle game or is another delay in the wings.

    Ah, now our dreadful start to the season 9 months ago makes sense - too many players clearly had their (ahem) minds on other things.

    The man in the middle tomorrow is Jonathan Moss.

    please log in to view this image



    We've not seen Moss at all this season before now. In fact it's 5 years since we've had the pleasure; a defeat up at the Etihad. And by jingo he had a field day - sent off Amorebieta with the score at 1-0, booked 4 players (all Fulham) and gave 2 penalties.

    He hails from Sunderand and supports his home team. For the record, Moss has managed 28 Premiership games so far handing out 95 yellows and 5 reds.

    Deserved to get something out of the game. Small margins and all that.

    A bigger margin though was Christie. Lost count of the number of times he irritated me when, with no Wolves player within yards, he stepped on the ball and passed backwards. Losing the opportunity to put Wolves on the back foot - eventually our guys didn't bother trying to run into space.

    Good on Parker giving Harvey Elliott his youngest player record, beating Matthew Briggs by 38 days.
