CERTAIN RELEGATION For Wolves
this season. That's what they all say, so please please, just keep
writing us off.
Blue
Square have us at 1/4 to be relegated whilst you can get odd's of 11/4
with the same bookmaker to stay up.
The
consensus all season is that Wolves will face relegation this season. We
were doomed before we kicked a ball and, with just eleven games
remaining, very few give us a chance of overturning a stat which is now
a massive eleven seasons old; every club which is bottom on Christmas
Day goes down.
However
Wolves can learn from something which they suffered from a couple of
seasons ago.
Wolves
were miles ahead in the First Division and heading for the Championship
and/or certain promotion to the Premier League via one of the top two
automatic promotion places a couple of seasons ago. However, game by
game Wolves failed to pick up points. Meanwhile, West Brom started to
pick up points and gradually and quietly, West Brom closed the gap and
clinched 2nd place ahead of Wolves, who then lost out to Norwich in the
Play-Off's.
This
season is so far similar, but in reverse. Wolves have had that huge gap
to close all season and, with just eleven games to go, Wolves are on the
same points (24) as Portsmouth, but our poor goal difference means that
Portsmouth are currently out the drop zone, but that could all change.
We
have quietly climbed the table, so keep writing Wolves off, but be
aware, we may just complete the same amazing feat that Albion did just a
few years ago.
