So then, well over half way, stuck in the bottom three and the common consensus seems to see us relegated. I just wondered what everyone's view of life in the Premiership is now.

For me personally, i like it here. I'll be honest and say i really enjoyed it prior to the transfer window but our lack of activity has taken some of the gloss off it a little now. I do like the fact we have less games but each one is a "big one" and i like the fact that should you miss a game you can almost guarantee to see extended highlights. The larger crowds don't always mean a better atmosphere but the noise from the right game and result does make your heart pump like nothing else i know of. I also love seeing us in the MOTD titles.

The downside of the Premier is the higher ticket prices, the bias towards the big four, matches can be played on any day and at any time. The fact we lose more than we win - but when we win it's so much better, so i suppose that compensates for that one. What i have really disliked was the furore over 'Traffordgate' (I don't want to go over that again, but the hypocritical overreaction from other clubs and the media was disgraceful) Also some of the refereeing has been shocking - you expect better at the highest level - sorry, this ain't so!


Having said all the above, i have an overwhelming ache deep in my heart that wished we were playing in Barclays League Division 1 and Murdoch never came along and ruined the game i love.....

i must admit as much as i loved last season when we were top of the championship i looked at the teams that are in there at the moment and i could not get excited about playing any of them other than newcastle and the baggies !!! if only we could of or still maybe could win a few more games in the prem to keep us up it is a better place to be.
The crowds will always be the same at the moulineux 27-28,000 last season, the same this season and the same next season , only the atmosphere might change a little......but for now keep the faith WE ARE WOLVES

sky have ruined everything-clubs like us & baggies derby forest blues stoke-will never aspire to the heights we would like to unless we are taken over by foreign billionaires-sad but true-it will all end in tears one day-i mean sky & the papers didnt seem that bothered abt the blouse/wolves game-they were only interested in chelski/arse-the big four will eventually become too boring for future generations of football fans

Premier for me! Ok last year was great because we were winning most weeks, but it has taken years to achieve this and there is no guarantee that we will regain our winning ways in the CCC. If, as a club we're going to win anything over the next 10 years, FA Cup, League Cup, or dare I get ahead of myself and say - scrape into Europe, then we need to be in the PL.

when you spent your sky money properley when you get promoted and can compete its great, shame we gave £18 million to the plonker mccarthy. we should have f**ked him off the end of last season and got souness or keegan neither of them will win a trophy but there is no trophy for what they do stabilse clubs in the premier league. Whereas mccarthys just a championship manager literally. If souness or keegan was here they would pick the right team and we would be competeing now. The end of this season mccarthys gonna have his 3rd relegation on his cv whose gonna want that then? perhaps walsall or hereford.
