    Bright Enobakhare

    I’m still optimistic it will happen. It’s clear we want him, it’s clear he wants to come so we’re two thirds of the way there. He might attract interest from a Championship club, but if the player doesn’t want to join them, then surely they (and therefore Wolves) won’t be getting the best out...

    I agree and it would be an apt reward for those who have supported the team while in exile at St Andrews.

    Haha, I’ll throw that idea out there and see how it lands....

    Confirmed - Gervane Kastaneer

    After reading this thread, I’ve changed my mind. He’s an awful signing, we should never sign from abroad. Especially as every signing we’ve made from the English league system has worked out perfectly. I’d also disregard the fact we have a different scouting and management team in place now...

    Blackpool at home is the same day my first child is due. Humm, chances of me getting to the game if it looks like my partners going to be late....?!

    I’d trust MR and our chief scout (who clearly has an immense football knowledge) over football fans who generally tend to be bitter towards outgoing players, and will be doubly bitter as he was part of a relegated team. I also don’t see MR as the type of manager to put up with any attitude issues.

    I don’t think Jones will be fit for a while and he’ll need time to settle/get up to speed, if it does at all. Hiwula isn’t a natural winger, so perhaps he’ll be used as a striker this year. Plus as has been said, it’s a long season.

    Confirmed - Gervane Kastaneer

    Even with the squad as it is and lacking a good striker, I think we’ll challenge. That isn’t me being unrealistic or thinking with my heart over my head. We were strong last year when we played football. This year we’re on a better playing surface and have signed players who reportedly are...

    8th signing incoming?

    We’re still in June. And Max will make the grade in L1.

    8th signing incoming?

    If it is another signing from abroad, it’s impressive how much more far reaching our scouting network now appears to be. Granted they could end up a dud, but I like that we aren’t letting the fact we’re a L1 club prevent us from looking further afield than the UK. We probably won’t be paying...

    Jesus, how embarrassing. He’s definitely waking up with the worst beer fear ever. Especially as it’ll all be true.

    85% of our fans are absolute idiots. You’re showing yourself up to be one of them. At this stage, after all the documents, statements and evidence out there, anyone still spouting the whole ‘blame SISU’ stance really needs to take a step back.

    ST’s purchased. There’s four of us, so unfortunately we couldn’t get four together in the two central stands, so we’re block 26. Or at least that’s what I’m told by the chap who booked them..... I’m actually quite annoyed about our seating position!

    St Andrews travel, parking & drinking

    I have to agree, Digbeth is fantastic for ale fans. One of our favourite areas of Birmingham for an ale trail. Ale trial followed by a Cov game in our promotion chasing season, finished by the rest of the trail. Good day.* *obviously still wish we were playing in Coventry.

    Robins on cwr

    He’s our current manager, and most successful in recent history. He’s spoken open and honestly about a contentious and all round shit situation. For all the theories and rumours online, he’s in the thick of it and knows the ins and outs. He’s formed a view based on those things. Really not...

    Robins speaks !

    I genuinely had no idea who he was until his Twitter ramblings were posted on here. After a quick Google, it appears he writes for the Guardian. Jesus, if a journalist working for a reputable national paper can be bought by an local council on such a trivial (for the rest of the UK) issue that...

    Robins speaks !

    Fantastic statement from MR. I really appreciate his absolute honesty and no holds barred approach re our situation. Surely that has to motivate people to support the team. And maybe it is a PR piece? So what, I’d be worried if we weren’t trying to make the situation as positive as possible...

    I can’t load it on my phone and I’m out all day so I cannot get to a laptop. Are there many left in the middle two blocks (28 and 29)? I’ve surprised myself this morning as even though I know the answer is bound to be ‘yes’ I’m still worried about missing out on a good seat. To me, that shows...

    Call to Arms first game of the season.

    I’ll be there with several other ST holders.
