Ok thought I may aswell start the Weekend Games thread.
Wolves host Preston in a 3pm kick-off, in a game where we need to win to restore our 7 point lead at the top after Reading demolished Watford 4-0 earlier this evening. Dispite the Alan Gow transfer falling through and Michael Mancienne being called back to Chelsea, I'm not worried about this game. An easy 3-1 victory I predict - and hopefully Blackpool can do us a favour against Birmingham.
Who's your team playing?

We haven't scored 3 goals in a match this season, so I very much doubt that one.

I was just thinking you never score many in one match.

Postponed.

Not a surprise - another mid-week game I can't attend.

This season ticket is becoming worthless this year.

Got on the train to find it was called off. Hadn't heard anything about pitch inspection etc before that either.

Wolves 1-1 Preston - 30 minutes played.
Sylvan Ebanks-Blake gave us the lead after 20 minutes, with help from the Preston keeper in what the commentator called one of the worst goalkeeping errors of the season. Preston equalised just 4 minutes later though through former Wolves player Stephen Elliott.
Hopefully we can nick a goal before half-time and go on from there.

2-1 Preston.
As Geraint said - Wolves 1-2 Preston - Half-Time.
Instead of nicking a goal before half time we've conceded one, and a few hours after I said I wasn't worrying about Mancienne getting called back by Chelsea he is supposedly the reason why we've conceded. Commentator says we're really missing him at the heart of our defence and it's Sean St.Ledger with the goal for Preston. To add to my misery, I know St.Ledger's brother - so he'll probably be going on about it for quite a while.

I know I've probably just jinxed us but who gives a ****.

Get in :D Quality result, always good to see the scum get beat, even better that we've beaten them :) Let's hope we can keep our little run going. Bring on Franchise FC!

Wolves 1-3 Preston - FULL-TIME.
The result speaks for itself really, we weren't at our best throughout the game and our poor defending lead to one or two of our goals. Sylvan Ebanks-Blake scored his 16th league goal of the season to give us the lead, former Wolves player Stephen Elliott equalised before Sean St.Ledger gave them a 2-1 lead going into half time. Elliott scored a second to make it 3-1 midway through the second half and Wolves were awarded a penalty late on only for the decision to be REVERSED, so I'm going to be looking closely at that one on The Championship tommorow morning. Due to Birmingham's match at Blackpool beling called off, if they win their game in hand then they will go 4 points behind us along with Reading. Not the best of days, but hopefully we won't let this get us down as we take on Birmingham on Tuesday for a place in the 4th Round of the FA Cup - which is a game that I'm desperate for us to win.

Heh well it's good we have Reading, Wolves & Birmingham fans on this forum. Two of them will be celebrating come May ;).
I still believe 4 points is a big enough lead for us to keep winning games and not drop in confidence.

As a Blues fan i find it hard to say this but, honestly in the last 3 months we have not being playing good enough to finish top maybe 2nd but i say that now things can change. But watching Reading beat us 3-1 the other week, there team has some class.

Quick edit btw, a 4 point gap is never enough! :P

It's a bubble so we're alright. Nothing happened last time, anyway. Swansea minibus got torched and there was fighting by McDonalds, weren't it?

Nah, won't be bad next week. Ticket are selling very slowly and we've been allocated 1,250 because the coach thing can only hold 20 coaches. We've got no bubble to Wolves but it's Sunday so there's no trains. If we play next season and we behave in our Midlands game, we aren't having a bubble for next season. That's when you better watch out.

Adds an edge to the game. I'm sure it's helped our club on the pitch.

Do you have a Graham Kavanagh avatar because he set-up a goal against Leeds, which meant that Lee Trundle lost?

Like most grounds nowadays, the atmosphere was dull when I went but increased when the goal was scored.
