Hurt

[waveney wolf]

Not even close to Watford.
20 mins from the FA cup final...then Nuno ****ed things up.
We never looked like beating Coventry

 

[Supadavewolf]

Not got over Leeds in 73, Arsenal in 79, Spurs in 81, the claridge debacle in 1998 (Arsenal again) yet alone Watford.

I'm still struggling to get over that 3 - 0 thrashing by Preston in the Cup final at Kennington Oval in1889.

You need a new mirror mate..... lol

Palace....

Play off's and the 1-4 in the cup

Watford by a country mile...

Compounded by our coach driver having ballsed up his Tacho timings, leaving us sat down a Wembley side street, post heart-break, on a stationary coach for 4 hours until he could legally set off for home.

The semis are in 5 weeks' time - a fair chance we'd have had Cunha, Dawson and Hwang back for that one.

Or another way to look at it is, we didn’t have the squad for a quarter final.

We definitely had the squad to beat Coventry in a quarter final. It was just a desperately poor display on the day, especially at the back.

Think we could have beaten Chelsea or Man U in a semi final as well. Makes it more annoying for me. Doesn't hurt that much anymore, but if I haven't seen us win a trophy by the time I'm 70 then this will sting again.

That's it, isn't it. Another year goes by as we clutch to that faint hope that one day we'll lift another trophy.
I'm thankful that've seen it happen in my lifetime as these opportunities don't come around very often.

Those born post Bully era are still waiting their first, unless you count the Play-Off Final or some trophy won in a pre-season tournament in Switzerland.

 

[Golden Arrow]

Don't know if they've previously made the official "Molineux Mix Games of Hurt and Heartache", but I'd like to nominate a League Cup Semi Final and a EUFA Cup Final, both against Tottenham Hotspur in the early 70's.
Still scarred after all these years.

Watford was sickening, no doubt. The worse defeat of all the 5 semis in my time supporting the old gold. However, they were a PL side and not too shabby that season. But Coventry, being a champo side, us seemingly getting out of jail, only to throw it all away with only 3 minutes on the clock, has hit me hard. **** I'm still fuming today. Why on earth we couldn't just foul, disrupt, hoof, feign injury, make a sub, etc. anything to wind down the clock, I don't know. Gary's quick to get someone to go down to get instructions on to the pitch, to make in game tactical changes. Why didn't he do that deep into added time before they got the equaliser and certainly before they got the winner? FFS it's horrible sometimes being a wolf! Grrrrrr!

So the championship, league one, the playoffs

All came with trophies!!!!!!

So unless you started supporting wolves in the last 5 years, you have 100% seen us win a trophy…..

It is frustrating and I do get upset. It may not happen in my lifetime, but I will wait until my last day on this Earth if I have to.

Come on. You're just trying to start something. You know what most people mean when they say 'trophy' and those usually don't qualify.

They 100% qualify, the playoffs was cheeky I admit that.

But some fans never see a league 1/2 or even national league championship win.

League one involved a record points haul….. that is bloody great trophy to have in the cabinet.

To dismiss the recent league trophies we have won, is more than a little bit sad…….

They were great days when they did the bus tours around the city. Those trophies do and will always “qualify” to any football fan….. especially in the age of city buying every English major trophy!

We have won more in the last 12 years than many clubs will win in their entire histories!!!!

it is sad that you dismiss them as not qualifying, as I bet you they qualify to the club, staff and players who won them…..

I know that they are trophies, I know we have won them and I am obviously happy we did. I am not dismissing them at all because any competition win is a proud moment for our club, for any club.

I am just saying that, in these conversations, most fans are referring to an FA Cup, League Cup or title. That's my understanding of it.

This does not surprise me as some of your jokes clearly date back to around that time

But go back the last 10 years and now looking into the future based on the current footballing, take away Leicester, unless you are city or the top 3 of the sky 6 clubs the chances of winning anything like prem or FA cup are very very very slim, you could almost describe it as getting struck by lightening in terms of possibility……..

It means that the barometer needs to change if you support any club who isn’t in that tiny cluster of super rich clubs who were there before FFP closed the doors on winning trophies if you aren’t them……

Also, any footballer will always count the winners trophy for the championship down to league two as a trophy…….. so why wouldn’t a fan?
