Wolves must have something in the closet to not get a manager with experience to get them out of trouble. Wish Terry Connor all the best.I think they will struggle financially if relegated this time.

Ha. It was on in the pub, but I was playing pool so not really listening. Conveniently ignoring the fact that Vertonghen is one of the hardest, nastiest b--tards playing the game at the moment as well.

not the old 'I was playing pool' excuse ?

No excuse. I was and I was doing it rather successfully

Its a funny one.....Curbishley turned the job down because his and Steve Morgan's aims for the club were not the same, yet only recently, Morgan said he saw Wolves as top half Premier side and shouldn't expect anything less??

It makes you think there is an element of the Venky's/Blackburn going on here.....Owner expecting miracles, while only giving the manager minimal funds....Curbishley, and any other experienced manager, would be wise enough not to take the job under such circumstances, leaving a novice like Connor (and Kean at Blackburn) to take the poisoned chalice.

Brilliant, wasn't it? If you thought their chants were bad, you should have seen the banners at Nacional.

Any Utd fans on here use the ManUtd.com website to buy their tickets? Was looking at going the Bilbao game and a mate has asked me to get his ticket too while i'm at it. When i go to my basket both of the tickets are ''assigned'' to my name, but obviously one isn't FOR me. Will my mate have to have his ticket 'assigned' to him or will he be able to get in alright if they're both assigned to me?

Cheers

Traing problems on main line to London. Dunno why SKY think it will affect Liverpool fans. I'm pretty sure there isn't a direct train route from Norway or Ireland.

Ohh the irony...still, United's fans wont have far to travel, if they fancy a "tear-up" with their "friends", today
