All the players and staff are fantastic. There was a video the other day can’t remember which team and the players literally signed their shirt and walked off, never said a word.
Yes, Nick Knowles moaning about it on Twitter I think.

Another fantastic video and I dare anyone to get to the end without a tear in their eye

As someone whose Mother is legally blind, with limited sight in her left eye, that has both filled me up and makes me even prouder to involved with the club.

Our Media Team need serious recognition as the content this season has been on another planet.

I’ve always believed in the old Shankly quote about the importance of football.

For many of us, especially those of us who live alone, I suspect Wolves are a very significant part of our lives. When they lose a black cloud descends, when we win it feels like you are high for days. It makes or breaks a weekend and affects your sleep.

But of course, it’s only football!

That's just banter, not trolling, because yesterday in the car he admitted to evading the swear filter. Just for the record, we all swear. It's in human nature. You should hear me some times when I accidentally drop something. It's in human nature. If someone didn't swear I wouldn't trust them. I would think they had some thing to hide haha.
I was gently teasing you, just as you were your old man. The two of you obviously get on well.

Oh right, thought I was getting an official telling off, haha. Yeah we get on very well. We have a great group of family friends, and he is very popular man with lots of friends. I am more of a lone wolf. No pun intended. 'One cannot be betrayed if one has no friends'. But then you get lonely and want to go to bars and clubs. And want to talk to people. So it's difficult really. Because of my problems with interacting with people. I find it difficult to read social cues.
Hi there, I've never spoken to you on here before and tbh know nothing about your age or your 'problems' but I was taken by your comments. I've pretty much been a lone wolf all my life; I'm much happier in my own company than with loads of people. As you become older this becomes less of an issue, believe me. My son is 35 and has a condition called ataxia, he has never been able to work, he is wheelchair-bound and he has always found it difficult to make friends and to be comfortable in social gatherings. Actually he never really wanted to go to bars and clubs and met his few girlfriends over the internet - the modern way!! After years on his own he met a Filipino nurse through, I think Match.com, they fell in love and they have been together now for nearly 3 years and have a beautiful 18 month old baby girl. They are even in the process of buying a house together. So my message to you is to never give up, keep looking forward and good things will happen to good people. And finally please don't think that friends will betray you. You don't need loads of friends; one good friend is worth all the world.
ps. Good luck to you and keep on supporting the Wolves!!!!!!

We have had our moments but it was really good of you to take the time to share your positive experiences with a Mixer who perhaps has similar issues to your son and it is heartwarming to hear about his happiness (my ex had cerebellar ataxia).

Edit: Just on a note on feeling isolated. I actually enjoy my own company to be honest.
You are part of the pack mate, we all have our problems/demons but the strength is in the pack. Some good folk on here most of whom I've abused at some point,

I posted a thread on here this season regarding mental health and have struggled with my own a lot, it's great to see people being so open and taking the time to send such personal messages here as well. Let's all remember that we are all wolves fans one way or the other here. Take care of yourselves

Thanks means a lot. I suffer with Aspergers Syndrome. Was diagnosed. I have been on dates, been with girlfriend(s). Yet nothing has stuck. Yeah I got to keep on living my life. Yeah I some times think people are out to get me when they are not really. Honestly I have tried dating sites, and I keep coming off them. Because I have trust issues, and it annoys me. Because of previous relationships. Yet I will keep trying. I think I am shooting myself in the foot by taking myself off dating sites. Yet it's the only way I am going to meet someone, as I have terrible social anxiety also. Thanks for your lovely comments, everyone has their issues/problems. Some luckier than others. I need to learn not to take things to heart so much, and I am sure things with fall into place. If I develop more of a positive attitude. Your support means a lot to me.

You’re braver than most people by sharing that. The world has plenty of horrible people in it, but far more loving and supportive people, and I’m confident you will find the one who will make your life complete. I met my wife at Uni through a complete fluke of circumstances. She wasn’t my first girlfriend, but I knew almost immediately she was “the one”, and I’m happy to say that over 30 years later, she remains the only one. It’s worth the patience, fun and occasionally hard work, of looking and the wait to find that special person.

UTW!

Thanks for getting back. I don't know if this is the right place/forum to have this open discussion but while the thread stays on the Mix or I'm told to 'wind my neck in' I'm more than happy to talk to you. Whilst you have a different condition to my son you obviously suffer from the same anxieties he did/still does to some extent. I don't know your age but Guy, my son, met Jacquie, his partner when he was 32 and he had not had a relationship since he was about 19. I think Guy persevered on dating sites as he did not work or go out much so he saw this as the best chance to meet someone. And boy did it pay off!!!!!! I would keep trying on dating sites. There are a million girls out there, many like you will be quiet, reserved and happy to sit and chat and not go clubbing! We live in a world that promotes fast cars, fast women, fast everything but believe me there are many, many people out there just like you, who would love to meet you and will enjoy your company. You just have to keep looking; it's a big world out there and who would have thought a Filipino young lady would reply to Guy and love him for who he is?

I have to say this and I aint got a sycophantic bone in my body. I have absolutely no connection with the black country, but in my 42 year love affair with the Wolves, have always found the pack to be an incredibly kind and caring bunch. I'd given up on looking for love after dismal r'ships, then met a lady from Texas (now very much a converted Wolf) of all god forsaken places. Society is way more receptive and understanding of mental health issues too. Stay strong fella. Life has a way of rolling in your favour when you least expect.

Yeah, there is this dating site that my mate Andy recommended, called enabled dating. Where you can meet women of similar problems. Yeah I will continue to persevere when I can. When I do get out of my shell, I am very bubbly, and yeah would love to meet women. And interact with them. Yeah the world's a big place. Everyone is different. Going to broaden my horizons, and you know. When you get too isolated, you start to think people aren't going to take a liking to you. When you know, I know, some of my family friends are very sociable with very good social skills. And the thing with me, is that it's just social skills with me, which are good, don't get me wrong. Yet I some times struggle with grey areas, in social situations really. When the world is not black and white. And is grey. Then it can get confusing for me. Yet I try and change my mind set to more of a grey thinking. Thanks for your kindness.
I don't think we can go on meeting like this! If you want to PM me for a longer chat or even a phone call please feel free. Interestingly Guy was sure he wanted to meet an able-bodied girl, rather than a girl with a similar condition to his. You're right to say that things are rarely black and white; if they were life might be a bit easier for you?! Don't try to over-complicate things; just try to go with the flow. As Rhyl says 'life has a way of rolling in your favour when you least expect it'.

Thewolffromwolverhampton...Great to hear you be so open on here. We have in the past had a few mental health threads on here, with a lot of folks sharing difficult stuff. It can be good to share. Re the Aspergers, I think it is more common than most think, but those at the low end of the spectrum probably have their coping strategies sorted, although others might see them as aloof, awkward or whatever. Nothing wrong with being different, most people who are considered normal are ********s anyway! I don't know what sort of music you like, but one of my favourites is Gary Numan, because i am an old fart. He has Aspergers and has done some very interesting interviews about it. Give them a listen....and his music too. Best wishes OG

This thread is great! :hearteyes: (that's all I really have to say tbh)
(Life can be really **** at times, and we've no idea what we're all going through in our lives, so we need to make everything easy for each other, give a little - ultimately, we're all in the same boat together, doing our best to paddle through)
