Hahaha...can't stop watching.

Missed the bit where Ogbanna tries to get a hand to Rooney's third. lol

nice to be on the 3 point side of a proper demolition job for the first time in a long time, but taken with a grain of salt. It's a crap squad beating a shiitake side.

I have been watching a recording of the game.

What the heck was Robbie Savage on?

The world and his wife sees that was a clear penalty but he was “not having it”

Hi Guys -thanks for your hospitality.
Wolves fan since 1959 just visiting and I wanted to agree with Gareth Gibsons post.
Your supporters were fantastic tonight. The atmosphere was evident even on TV
You have nothing to worry about this season - I can still see a top 8 finish for you.
BTW thanks for not offering Nuno the job lol. I think he would have had a hard job turning Everton down!
Thanks for letting me comment and good luck for the season. (I have a bet on you for the FA Cup!)

Thanks for posting such a charming message! I'm glad you had a good evening at Goodison. Best of luck to you and your team for the rest of the season. I hope you make it back to the top-flight soon; it's where a club of Wolves' standing belongs.

Because the team give them no encouragement. The fans support the team doing the right things; when they don't, there's literally nothing to support.

The fans job is to be reactive; the players job is to be proactive.

Except of course when things aren't going well and the team needs a lift. If you've ever played sports in front of a crowd be it 50, 500, 5000, or 50K...when things are darkest for fans it's even darker for the players.

They know they are playing bad, making mistakes, etc. They know it's not good or right. Some players really struggle with confidence (I speak from personal experience) A little help from the crowd can go a long way.

Now...if the effort simply isn't there that's a whole other can of worms. The job of the fan is to support...until the effort doesn't earn it.

Great sign off for David Unsworth.

Stepped in, rested Wayne, Beningame looks interesting, Lennon looks back to his best.

kenny improving, gaps now abundantly clear in defence, and of course a striker.

Albeit slightly easier run of league games on paper, his points average on those 5 league games I believe is higher than Koeman, with a squad he didn't pick or buy.

Thank you David. I hope he gets a longer managerial, possibly championship stint before returning.

Deep joy. I was laughing my tits (moobs) off as the goals were flying in.

Oh how they laughed when they 'beat' us to the Olympic Stadium. He who laughs last.....

Hope the nasty little racists get relegated and disappear into oblivion like they deserve.

Nice one EFC.

P.S. Did you know they won the world cup?

Second half WHU pressed us mightly and nearly got back into the game. At 2 down they had nothing to lose nad pushed us back. Their play though at that time was better, good passing compared to us, we gave the ball away too easily with our bad passing.

A win is a win and 3 points, helped by other results this week.

Obviously overshadowed by Wayne but how good is jordan pickford,?

Loved his little celebration after the pen.

He's defo got a bit of the big nev vibe about him. Calm assured, Confident to the point of cocky/arrogant. Best signing this summer by far.

4-0 brilliant stuff, penalty save, Rooney hatrick including a worldie and a clean sheet. Onwards & upwards.

Pickford's penalty save was the key moment. I think they might of got something out of the match, if it went in.

Right on, and Rooney's wonder goal shortly after killed them off.

The effort hasn't been there in a couple of the away games, which is an even bigger concern considering fans have travelled hundreds of miles, often at ridiculous hours of the day.

Yes I was actually quite confident, he'd save it. Really impressed with this lad. Rooney was obviously man of the match but Pickford was 2nd.
