Pride of Wolverhampton. Gew on Aaron Rai.

🚨 William Haggas confirms MALTESE CROSS goes to the Derby.

“If he’s fit and well, he’ll be there”, and we think owner George Waud will be happy about that!

[Sam Norris @SamNorris_]

@Wolves689 rubbers with players who don’t be here next season. If we’ve hired him based on his championship acumen (we have). Doesn’t it make sense to try him in that league?

[Sam Norris @SamNorris_]

We were dead and buried when Rob Edwards took over anyway. The only achievable goal was beating Derby’s record, which he did. This season completely irrelevant after that. He’s got a decent Champ record, will have a more motivated squad next year. Don’t get the hysteria 🤷‍♂️ #wwfc

[Sam Norris @SamNorris_]

@Wolves689 Got lucky with those squads but this one is no excuse? Squad he inherited this season is probably 19th in terms of quality and comfortably 20th in terms of desire. He might not be the right man long term but I’m not going to worry too much about how we play in a load of dead

[Sam Norris @SamNorris_]

@wolf_p4ck9 @cruyffwulf So all the failures are him but all the achievements are luck? It’s not been easy on the eye of late but this is a really poor squad who have been relegated for months and are going through the motions. I’d judge him on how we play in Champ as I think that’s why we got him

[Sam Norris @SamNorris_]

@dannyboytot Genuinely, what were your expectations from him, though? Safety? How did we play against Liverpool, Villa? Good and bad this season is just irrelevant. Give the championship manager some time in the championship otherwise why bother appointing him?

[Sam Norris @SamNorris_]

@cruyffwulf Minor miracle he got Luton promoted in the first place. Left Boro in good shape, I’d argue they regressed after, certainly didn’t get any better. Why would you employ a Champ manager for a club who were 100% going to the Champ and not let him manage any games in that league?

Diogo 💛🖤

[Sam Norris @SamNorris_]

@TomCrampton_ Man thought he had a hit tweet 😔

[Sam Norris @SamNorris_]

@markg80 @RacingTV @AintreeRaces @WillHillRacing He was 40s into 25s after the last round of withdrawals and is into 16s since then. I thought it was noteworthy enough to mention

[Sam Norris @SamNorris_]

@333peterobinson @WilliamHill @TomBull4 Fair enough. I knew he’d had a fall yesterday but as he’s still jocked up on Cadell, assumed all was okay. Hadn’t realised he’d been injured. 🤞 for a speedy recovery.

[Sam Norris @SamNorris_]

No Day One portfolio is complete without the Jennie Candlish four-fold at Sedgey.

[Sam Norris @SamNorris_]

@pjocathain That one still exists! You can get it on the WH website, WH app, Racing Post App and Alexa. Lord B was a legend, much missed.

[Sam Norris @SamNorris_]

@pjocathain Now you mention it, I don’t remember seeing any of that money! Racing Radio lives on! As for In-Play, I doubt it but you never know. I miss it too, was good fun

[Sam Norris @SamNorris_]

I’d forgotten about Duckens Nazon. Really wanted to hear ‘feed the duck and he will score’ 😔

[George Lakin @GesLakin]

So the baton has been passed to Matheus Cunha 🤩🇧🇷

But who's the best you've seen grace the hallowed number 10 at Wolves? 🤔
