Well here we are. 2 games remaining in the season and we’ve achieved our first objective. We are safe. Wolves can only amass a potential points total of 43 so our 45 points already means we have had a very, very successful season.
I don’t think I need to remind our members that to start the season the club had to sell some of our best players in Gibbs and Coleman just to keep our heads above water!! Now look at us – we’ve rejuvenated the squad, admittedly some older players have been brought in to add leadership, but as they retire we now more than have the means to replace them.
To the match recaps then. March wasn’t too bad. 3 draws from 3 matches with young loanees Gerson and Unal featuring in the race for the Young Player of the Month award. Ideally of course we would have turned 1 or 2 of those into wins but they were all very even matches.
April has been a little more disappointing. We feel we should have got more from the Cardiff match – particularly seeing at it was at Goodison and the Tottenham and Manchester United matches exposed our lack of depth and showed us exactly how far we are from taking the next step. We need to be more consistent as when we are on form we can beat anyone – as evidenced by our 4-1 shellacking of Chelsea!! Great result.
Given we can still mathematically finish above Liverpool I can assure all our fans that we will be going all out in an effort to do so!!
Finally I’d like to sign off this month but wishing both West Ham and Newcastle the best of luck in this season’s FA Cup final. I’ve completed deals with both teams this season so have no particular personal favorite that I want to win and am looking to relaxing and enjoying the game!
Yours in football,
