local derby

Well an early derby start for Wolves with the visit of Colin Lee's Walsall. Will Revenge be on the cards for Walsall we will bladdy hope not.

Well the derby season starts but it's very limited this season, with them lot up the road promoted and the also the bluenoses.

So possibly this is our biggest game of the season and also Walsall's cup final , this is one i don't need us to lose because i have plenty of friends waiting in the wings to take the mickey.

Both games against Walsall ended with us winning 3-0 and 3-0 and a repeat of that would kick start the season after a goaless draw at Bradford.
Still no Mark Kennedy or Keith Andrews in the Wolves squad both are long term casulties, but hopefully coming back for the Walsall game (crossed fingers) is Paul Ince who missed sundays game due to lack of match fitness.

Encouraging words about Ince as Dave Jones said "Paul is fine running wise but i have decided he needs an extra couple of days training" which could mean ince plays at least some part Wednesday.

On the downside is Dean Sturridge will possibly miss out again Deano said "It's going to be touch and go i've still got stitches in at the moment and the healing process has'nt been brilliant"

Deano also said "I'm not due to have the stitches out until after the game but i would'nt have a problem if the manager wants to play me"

Our Neighbours Walsall would like to kick start there season also by winning tommorow, and could possibly have new player David Zdrilic back he's been given an outside chance of featuring in the game.

Walsall lost 2-0 at home to Ipswich saturday and a player who impressed me was Herivelto who came on second half and really lit up the Saddlers attack and he's my DANGER MAN WATCH of the day.

Lets hope it's not a Molineux repeat the last time we played Walsall in August as i've been reminded lately by Walsall mates.
