Today’s Games 2023-2024

[WW1963]

Well my thread went well. It was atmosphere that got me in to football. Its gradually drained away. Sometimes molineux still rocks but we never rock like elland road did last night as even after a big win most of the ground melts away. Elland road was the best away atmosphere i went to in recent years too. I dislike leeds like everyone else but just wanted to comment on a top atmosphere. I wish we could be like that again as back in the day molineux was that good

Get your point, though the comments section on the highlights YouTube video is full of people criticising the lack of atmosphere until Leeds scored.

On the video itself, you can only hear Leicester fans and they're singing 'football in a library'.

I would actually agree that Leeds fans are one of the best in the country, so it's not being bitter about them, but the atmosphere last night really wasn't that good. It looked great when they sung 'I predict a riot' but the basis of your comment praising the atmosphere surely isn't a song playing after the game?

For 80 minutes, the atmosphere was that poor that you could regularly hear Leicester fans mocking them for it.

The final ten minutes looked wild, but the idea that we didn't 'rock' like Elland Road did last night in the FA Cup game against Man United or the comeback win against Man City, off the top of my head, is just nonsense, in my opinion.

Even this season, you could argue the Man City game was the catalyst for our whole season changing under O'Neil and the fans basically forced Pep into a half-time substitution because it was that hostile. The fans without doubt helped us win the game.

Unlike last night, we also had a great atmosphere in those games throughout, and we definitely will again at some point when the situation comes around. That was a massive game for Leeds last night.

 

[Edinburgh Wolf]

I would like to know what @Edinburgh Wolf made of one the worst offside calls in a long time at Firhill last night in the Partick Thistle v Dunfermline. There was one against in the first half against Thistle that was wrong but in real time I can see why it was called. The second one was a disgrace, Brian Graham is clearly onside stood behind a defender before moving forward to score and the goal is given. Incredibly the attention seeking officials who want to get on the TV decide to have a conflab and disallow the goal. While The Jags defended like a Sunday morning hungover pub side, these bad calls changed the flow of the match. If the first disallowed goal had of stood they would have been 2 up and gone on to win in all probability. The second chalked off goal,which as I will say again was a shocker would have made it 2-2 and all the momentum was with Partick, that decision killed that. This lead to Partick losing their shape, with tempers flaring with the officials as they, naturally enough given those situations, felt every big decision was for the visitors.

It is the same in Scotland as down here that VAR is only available in the Scottish Premier League, it is not in the Championship. Watching the Thistle game last night and then turning over to see the discussion over the disallowed Foxes goal it does make me think that while I am no fan of what VAR when I witness decisions as bad these were last night is it a necessary evil ?

I didn't get a chance to watch the game last night. I'll report back once I've reviewed the shambles!

 

[Frank Lincoln]

While Leicester City shouldn’t have lost last night, a dear friend of mine who follows them has been concerned about their defence for some time, and last night only reinforced his opinion. He said that when Leeds equalised there was only going to be one winner. Regarding the atmosphere, he said that until Leeds scored it was nothing special.

 

[rincewind]

I think the post match celebrations, that Sky picked up, made it seem much better than it was for the vast majority of the game.
Football atmosphere in England is generally spontaneous and reflects events on the pitch. The alternative is what you see in many European stadiums with flares, choreography and chant leaders. Sounds OK first time round but quickly becomes a dull, unimaginative background sound track.

Are we on the telly box tomorrow?

If so what channel?

It's on Sky Sports but will overlap with the League Cup final also on Sky thanks to the Met Police!

Here I am at the MKM stadium to see Hull beat Albion in about an hour. Big game for both clubs.So strange to see so many people wearing Wolves colours and not supporting Wolves!

Give ‘fake Wolves’ a cheer to beat them scum NNW!

Didn't realise Ryan Giles plays for Hull.

 

[SuperGran]

Didn't realise Ryan Giles plays for Hull.

He’s on loan there

There is always only one winner. I know what you mean, though.

As there's no early Prem kick off today; Supersport is also showing 'ull vs. Albyun, so I might give it a watch if there no paint drying that I need to watch instead.

Sorry, I didn’t word it very well. He felt Leicester just caved in after the equaliser and he feared the worst.

 

[Frank Lincoln]

Ryan knows what his job is today. Once a wolf….

 

[Macman]

Come on Hull, beat those sore losers….

 

[JadeWolf]

If either of these teams won the play-offs this time next season they’ll have less points than Sheff Utd have got. Awful.

 

[JadeWolf]

We were right to sell Giles. I know Ait-Nouri isn’t a great defender but Giles makes him look like Ashley Cole.

 

[Macman]

Well done Hull!

 

[Arky_R]

Clear as mud,..

Well done buddy proud of yah

 

[JadeWolf]

Good goal by Hull. Doesn’t fit in with the style of the game.

 

[Miniwolf]

Rocket of a shot puts Hull 1 up

 

[Thank you Sir Jack]

The BBC have a "thumbs up" and "thumbs down" thingy to use against news of a goal. I was the first person in the entire country to click on the "thumbs up" for the Hull goal.
In the ranking of life's achievements, it ranks fairly low, but it made me feel good.

 

[JadeWolf]

Scrappy goal for 1-1.

I will give you a thumbs up for that!

A thumbs down now as the **** have equalised. Bah!

 

[Bugsy911]

Dreadful game, awful play from Hull lumping the ball out before the equaliser.

 

[Macman]

Everytime ‘Philogene’ of Hull gets mentioned, i just keep thinking… ‘is not my lover, shes just a girl who claims i am the one.’

 

[JOSWolf]

Philogene meant to be attracting interest of Premier League clubs.

 

[Thank you Sir Jack]

I won't be able to get that tune out of my head now.

 

[RosehillWolf]

Just tell that tune to beat it

 

[northnorfolkwolf]

Surprised at how many empty seats in the Albion end considering what a big game it is.

 

[SA Wolf]

Flum, maybe, due to their Michael Jackson connection of days gone by.

Wish the match was more of a Thriller.

 

[northnorfolkwolf]

The gulf between the Prem and the Champs is massive. If either of these go up they'll be in trouble. At least the sun is shining!

 

[JadeWolf]

Wish the match was more of a Thriller.

It’s bad you know it, really really bad.

 

[Thank you Sir Jack]

Or West Ham, because MJ was always "blowing Bubbles"
(Thanks for the opportunity to air that old gag).

What scares the crap out of me is that " Billie Jean " was in the charts FORTY ONE YEARS AGO this month !!!!!!!!!!!!
