Cannot wait for this one. Monday 8pm cannot come quick enough. Start 2025 as we mean to carry on with a statement win.

This isn't going to be the push over we were all probably expecting a month ago.
Since Wolves changed their manager, they have beaten Leicester and Man Utd and got a credible 2-2 result at Spurs. They have scored 7 times and conceded only twice in their last 3 games, so their confidence will be sky high at the moment.
As long as our defence stands firm, as they have done for the best part of this season, I do feel we can win this one. There is no doubt that Nuno will be up for this one as it is in his old back yard. I hope the players turn up for Nuno and give Wolves hell

Cunha suspended for this game, which is helpful!

Only two game ban, seems pretty generous. That fake 5 game ban seemed much fairer.

I don't mind. He misses our game but will be back sooner to help them take points from other teams.

That is a good point, I'll take it!

He actually only misses one PL game as one game is going to be FA Cup. So we got pretty lucky with that one!

This is absolutely best case for us. We'll have played Wolves twice so they cant do us any more damage after Monday.
I just can't believe how this season is going for us. It's like there's some divine intervention. Like we're being repaid for the 20 odd years of misery we've had to endure.

The fixture schedule is our friend. We get extra days until Wolves on Monday, which assuming we rotate heavily for Luton is good. So in league fixtures 8 days Wolves (6th) - Liverpool (14th), then 5 days until Soton (19th). Whereas Soton are away to Man Utd on 16th.
When you look at teams in Europe, Spurs I was looking at, also Liverpool who are playing in the 2 legged league cup semis as well, their schedule is twice a week every week into February.

A bit nervous for this game. Complacency etc, etc.
Always had a soft spot for Wolves. A best mate at Junior school was a fan and I'd never heard of them until he arrived from Australia. (This is back in the early 70's when everything was in black and white for you youngsters on here!). Would like to see them stay up.
Would like to see Ipswich stay up also. Just willing those awful bloody bin dippers to go down - especially now as the "media' are repeatedly and never endingly speculating on Forest "doing a Leicester" (oh, how I hate this expression)!!
We will do it - if indeed we do - entirely on our own......with no comparisons to Jamie 'Albert Steptoe' Vardy if you please!
