IT’S MAAAAAAATCHDAAAAAAYYYYYY

How are you feeling?! Excited? Nervous? Both?!

First of all, this won’t be easy. They’ve actually got a decent home record, and of course the occasion acts as a bit of a levelling up. But, we have a really good side. Great to listen to Gary O’Neil the other day saying he was preparing the team for what the game will be like tactically but also emotionally. If we are going to get a result and end the long, long wait, we need to get both right.

The build up has been very strange I’ve gotta say. It’s only really in the last day or so when them lot have wanted to talk about it. I think they’re worried of what our team is capable of, so they aint really wanted to give it the big one. Just in case.

In terms of team, I’d hope Gary goes as strong as possible. And i think he will. Ait Nouri might only be on the bench after a lot of travelling this week, and Sarabia might not be risked with his bad calf. Easy to forget we have two really important league games coming up this week.

Sa
Kilman Dawson Toti
Semedo Doyle Lemina Doherty
Neto Cunha Bellegarde​

Bentley, Bueno, Bueno, Ait Nouri, Hodge, Griffiths, Sarabia, Chirewa, Fraser.

Looks a good team to me.

It’s a really difficult game to sum up, because it means so much to different people for different reasons. Some live close and it’s a tribal thing. Some live far away and the rivalry feels different. Some have suffered pain against this lot time and again, whereas others have barely seen us play them. I think we all believe we can win, we dare to dream. The lads will need you today, wherever you are and wherever you’re from. This is our club, our badge, our town, and let’s hope today we show what we’re about.

Whether you’re following from the Hawthorns in Birmingham, across Wolverhampton and the Black Country or across the world, enjoy the game and let’s get that win lads!

COYW!

Play for the badge on the front, and they will remember the name on the back.

A day for new heroes to be made. Please lord, we are more than due this.

Come on lads!!

Beautifully put angel.

As you get on in life you find yourself asking for less and less, on this occasion I make an exception....

To him up there, goo on, just for once!

 

[Kashmire Hawker]

Just woken up with a real mixture of hype and nerves going through the veins, knowing how much today means for all involved.

It will be a tough affair with our opponents being right in the Play-Off chase.

With our attacking prowess, I hope we go at them and use our pace from the off.

A win means this squad will automatically go into club folklore and we certainly have a gaffer who knows the significance of today.

Hope all enjoy the game from wherever we are and hope all fans represent the club in a good manner.

See the rest of you with tickets there!

Up The Wolves!

 

[Titch]

Proper nerves this morning, just win Wolves, last minute goal off Toti's bum whatever, just win....

Come on me babbies....

 

[waveney wolf]

Sadly I'm off to work...I shall have itv on my phone behind the Yorkshire puddings in my kitchen...1 4 wolves

 

[SquaddieWolf]

Hope we absolutely smash them and end these awful records we have against them in the cup and at Poorthornes but there's part of me that wants a replay at the Golden Palace. Much prefer the first outcomevtho. COTW Smash these inbred ****ers

 

[SydneyWolf26]

So tough to call. I think (and hope) our class will shine through and it will be a comfortable 2-0, that would be the wolves way… right?!

 

[Ches78]

Got to admit, I struggled to sleep last night - and I'm only watching the thing on the telly! Shame Hwang isn't playing, but surely we've got enough, especially with Neto back and looking sharp. I hope him and RAN (and Cunha) run them ragged! Cmon Wolves!

 

[Rangiora Wolf]

Nervous. I hope Gary's got them fired up and they're up for it because we can't take this one lightly.

 

[Clifton Wolf]

This team have grit and a dose of quality, no var to contend with. I’m quite relaxed…

 

[Golden Oldie]

For those who have already started walking .... safe journey and I hope your peaceful dedication is well rewarded COYW.

 

[Kebab Warrior]

I am absolutely bricking it. Please god not again.
Weirdly the worst for me was the loss at home and Nuno just sat there staring into space after Coady came off and knowing the dream was over. Horrible.

Not again Wolves, not again.

 

[woop woop barmy army]

Good morning boys and girls.

Let’s smash these today. Had a bad feeling all week. But woke up positive 4-1

Please just don’t loose.

 

[sillytuna]

Driving from london. Might have to put the liquidator on repeat

 

[Werewolf of Wombourne]

This could be a truly great day. The Aussies have lost at home to the Windies, England have a great chance of winning the 1st test and we could smash the ****. If Carlesberg made Sundays!

 

[Ned]

COME ON WOLVES!!!!!

 

[SingYourHeartsOut]

Fitful night, the dream I had said 1-1, wouldn't be the worst, smash them at Molineux with 26k Wolves in the ground. See the lucky ones there, hope the TV gets the atmosphere and doesn't treat us like the Klopp wake warm up.

 

[Glow69]

Cmon lads!

****ing work preventing me from being there but to the 4k going show those ****ers an atmosphere!

 

[Bugsy911]

Excited and looking forward to being able to go,last time i saw us win away agaunst them was Bully's last minute winner alongside my dad who's sadly not with us now.

Safe travels everyone and let's get this done

 

[Frank Lincoln]

Out of darkness cometh light.
Come on Wolves, it will be tough, but we can do this.

 

[MrwulfAndrew]

Only a win with 4 clear goals is acceptable, COYW!!!!!

 

[StaffordWolf]

iPads fully charged, light glasses on, let's get into these ****ers and send them home crying.

 

[Flea]

Confident as hell.
We are better than them all over the pitch and I expect us to go as strong as possible.
GON treats the FA Cup in the right way in general(no bleeding backup keeper)and it´s evident he knows what this matchup means for all the local fans of WWFC.
Albion certainly is no better than blades..oops!
We will beat them by a fairly comfortable margin.We score first and they will open up and then we might even smash them.

Cross country skiing followed by the BCD...Ravens vs Chiefs to follow.
I´m looking forward to a brilliant Sunday.

**** off west brom
The Wolves.

 

[Ned]

I slept like a baby last night, just had breakfast and am now contemplating a beer.

 

[Flea]

My lineup is the sames as Jades,with the Doherty exception.
I´d start RAN and bring on Bueno or Doc if necessary later iin the match.

 

[WW1963]

Never been this chilled about a BCD. I was fairly relaxed before watching us beat them 2-0 in the return game during the 4-2 season. This time it is complete confidence with no concerns, ifs, buts.

Will be out on the road working during most of the match, so won't really be involved in the game as it's being played - perhaps the odd five minutes of radio commentary.

I'll be following it mostly blind via the match thread.

 

[WV10Wolf]

Only a win with 4 clear goals is acceptable, COYW!!!!!

4lbi0n?

 

[WV10Wolf]

Is it time to smash them yet?

Brilliant post Jade, nice one.

Not much to say at this point. Come on me babies, go and get the job done.

 

[Henry Palfrey]

BBC Breakfast this morning, 'there are four FA cup ties today. Liverpool play Norwich in the first game since Klopp announced he is leaving (picture of Klopp on screen).
Manchester Utd play Newport in their last chance of a trophy this season (presser of Ten Haag repeating that it is their last chance of a trophy this season).
Nothing more.

 

[djmikeydickens]

I don't care how we play or how we do it. Just win!!

I’ve literally just bored the wife with the same point. I was a little less polite, mind.

 

[5 - Lescott]

Nervous as hell, but surely……SURELY todays our day?

Please

I know, they did this in MOTD last night…..no mention of the eagerly awaited BCD. Crazy. All about Liverpool and Klops first game since announcing retirement

I wonder what the pre match build up on itv will be like.

 

[Golden Arrow]

Listening to George on 5-Live this morning.
He said that he'll be watching the game (I assume on TV) and be supporting Wolves with a hope that we can come together in the next round.
Bless him.

Tbh, I'll be turning on for ko. You just know the pre-match will be *******s.

Even when they did the draw, they talked about how amazing it was to see Tottenham and Man City play each other. And what a great chance Wrexham have against Blackburn. Completely oblivious to the Black Country Derby!
