Anyone remember the last game between these two sides? It was the Play-Off final in Cardiff. It was a day Wolves reached the promise land and a day we believed would be a huge stepping stone in the future of this club...we were wrong!

Anyone remember the last game between these two sides? It was the Play-Off final in Cardiff. It was a day Wolves reached the promise land and a day we believed would be a huge stepping stone in the future of this club. However, in reality, since that awesome day in May 2003 Wolves have headed backwards. The Play-Off final was the biggest day in the club for years, but after one season in the Premiership, Wolves ended the season 6 points from the safety line. An abysmal start to this season followed and Dave Jones was sacked as Manager. Now however it's time for this side - which has cost over £30M in the last four years - to deliver. The mistakes made by the board have gone and now it's down for the players to help move this club forward and once again drag this great club up the table. A little bit of effort isn't too much to ask for, is it?
