TV analysis
Ha Ha..... Look at the Wolves fan giving it the big " we are " just because they have started well with ther multi million pound squad........
Lets hope they fall on hard times during the winter !!!
I suspect that Villa will finish higher than them.........
He seems to know a lot about all of Wolves' performances this season for a 'neutral'.
Clown.
Maybe he’s neutral because his brain isn’t in gear?
My opinion is that under Alex Neil we are a good side, we play good football and we can mix it with the best in this Division. Plus we have Tom Clarke and Greg Cunningham - 2 of our best players to return.
I don't know if it just me but I have seen some appalling refereeing this season which has cost us points. The penalty was soft but it was a penalty but the foul on Maxwell was missed, the punch on Pearson was conveniently missed. their 2 goals from open play were fortunate in that they got the luck of the bounce.
One player alone at wolves cost £12 million so if we are mixing it with them and making them look average then we are heading in the right direction
Too many of these officials are giving the big decisions to the big clubs, but what do you expect with a weak FA who cannot police themselves let alone match day officials. I would love to see the assessors report on that performance by Steve Martin yesterday, very aptly named too

I don't give one hoot what opposition fans think about our team. However, when those fans cover their games for national tv (the Sky reporter yesterday for example is a self confessed lifelong Wolves fans), their biased opinion receives publicity and perpetuates the myth that we are a dirty team. Word soon spreads and we have examples, like the Garner video that did the rounds of referees, which soon lead to preconceptions of how we approach games.

Funny how everyone seems to play "their worst game of the season" against #teamslikepreston
His tackle was so long after the whistle for the first foul that they had almost taken the free kick. Clear booking
Sky's Johnny Philips is a wolves fan, so is is dad Dr John Philips who taught me at University. He's always come across as a pretty balanced reporter, it wasn't a one sided affair but as some have said, wolves are top of the league and the media will always report on them favourably.
I didn't think the reports on SSN were particularly biased, and he was clear about the late pressure PNE put on Wolves even after the sending off.

Sorry to invade your forum still so much discussion on this match, I would say this is a massive compliment. If you can stop the best teams playing their game and impose your own you are on to a winner. What will be fascinating for me will be how we set up at Deepdale.
If you hang on to your stars, Hugill and Barkhuizen as an example you will cause teams all sorts of problems.
We were heavily linked with Hugill when Lambert was in charge and he certainly looks very useful I haven't seen Batth get done by the physical side of the game too many times I can tell you that.

Pen decision could have gone either way, I suspect the player wouldn't have had enough control of the ball to have finished with Earl closing in. I wouldn't have given the pen but wouldn't have complained if we got it.
The Browne second yellow was 100% correct, he kicked out and connected with the player after he lost the ball. I liked his speed, energy, desire and commitment to make that challenge even if it cost us a player for the last few mins.

Disagree, it was part of the play and both the Wolvs player and Brown were committed when the ref blew. Browne also got the ball, a fair but hard tackle, so I cannot understand why he got the first yellow, as for the second yellow that was a correct decision.
I was right next to Browne's first booking, he committed to winning the ball as the whistle went, won it cleanly and was booked due the Wolves players acting and a poor referee.

It's really not surprising that the so called big teams get better coverage than us, and personally speaking I'm quite happy about it.
However, I watched Final Score yesterday and whenever they went to Molyneux for a report, the reporter showered praise on Preston. More than once he said that if there was a harder working team than Preston in the championship, then he was yet to see them. He used the word 'impressive' several times when speaking of Preston. That was at least one reporter who has noticed us.

It will be interesting to see what the pundits have to say in a couple of weeks when the Villa game is on live.

Well we just need to keep our cool, take our chances when they come unlike yesterday, and keep on the right side of the ref. We need to
not plead unfair play by the ref and opposition. Keep everyone onside a la Leicester. Otherwise we face glorious defeat which is a rubbish place. Ive faith in Neil that he gets this and knows what it takes.
