Ok, ok, calm down, its here, its late, but its here. Its Fulham v Wolves, it's Jimenez and Traore, and it's also Cunha and Hwang.
Wolves will be without Craig Dawson who is suspended after being carded for being Rugby tackled by Son in the Spurs game, Pedro Neto is recovering from his hamstring injury but this game comes too soon for him. Mario Lemina suffered an ankle injury playing for Gabon last week but is expected to be fit. Could be a first PL start for Santi Bueno in place of Dawson.
For the home side Joao Palhinha is suspended which is a boost for us, Traore, Issa Diop, Tyrese Francois and Rodrigo Muniz are also expected to miss out with injuries.
It feels like Fulham have had a poor start to the season but their record is quite similar to ours, they're clearly missing Mitrovic's goals with Jimenez contributing just one so far this season. But a home win would see them join us on 15 points, so a proper 6 pointer.
Difficult one to call but I fancy us too nick this, 0-1.

Just seen the pen PSG for against Newcastle, commentator was bleating that it wouldn't be given in the Premier League, he's clearly not done any Wolves games then.

I think it is a mix of incompetence and an unconscious bias against us. Possibly caused by last seasons staff berating refs or a siege mentality within PGMOL that we keep showing them up and they need to protect themselves.
The assistant referee laughs when the decision is overturned and the penalty is given. I think that shows their feelings about us.

My point is that the refs and VAR personnel must be aware of all the controversy and you would think, let’s get this right when making decisions.
Unfortunately it appears the opposite occurs and some perverse logic happens and they go the other way.

Like everyone else I'm totally p!ssed off with VAR (I would get rid completely) but, at the beginning of the season, I didn't think we would be in relegation trouble and I don't think so now. Similarly, we won't be getting in to Europe and I never thought we would.
So when I look at the table at the end of the season I will content myself with the belief that actually we finished about 4 or 5 places higher, and that Man Utd, Newcastle and the likes each are deducted the relevant number of points.
The whole thing stinks but I won't let it ruin the season for me, which, on the whole I'm quite enjoying.

Getting rid of VAR would likely leave us in the same position anyway. Most of the decisions we are disgruntled by were given against us on the pitch and VAR failed to overturn them. I think we only save 1 point that we have lost through VAR going.
That's why I can't get behind the protest signs they are organising for the next home game. They are all about abolishing VAR rather than targetting PGMOL and the bias we are seeing.

Honestly past caring. When you look at it, the whole game is pretty pointless just plodding along with the occasional high of 7th place or a cup semi, pretty sad really isn't it.
Best thing to happen to the game would be a super league to fack off the big clubs so we can enjoy the game again.

Must admit I am slowly losing my love for the game itself. My match day experience remains as good as ever though, few pints with old mates I’ve known pretty much all my life, I still look forward to our matches as much as ever.
However, Mondays match left me with a funny feeling in the pit of my stomach. Maybe I’ll just skip the televised games and just make sure I’m drunk when I subject myself to it in future.
Just lately the Championship really doesn’t seem so bad

Yeah totally get the fun of going with friends, a bigger part of the day than the football for most I would think.

Must admit I've enjoyed most of the games I've been to this season, again going with mates helps (even if one of them is a miserable old cant ) and most of the VAR nonsense has been in away games ( I was away for the Newcastle game). But Monday just left me completely cold.

Agreed. Monday hit a new low. 😩
