That's a shame, presumably the African bush has poor wifi

Jordan Rhodes only signed for Sheffield Wednesday a few weeks ago but some Sunday papers reckon Wolves are trying to sign him.

Andy Lonergan is evidently close to joining Hull

Can't say Rhodes excites me, maybe a year or two ago.

That was what was said on the Mol Minx forum, almost word for word.

Someone showed a graph that indicated the goals per game ratio is diminishing.

Incidentally, I know people are advocating we put out a "second string" at Yeovil, but as football is now more and more an entertainment business, fans of clubs like Yeovil will be hoping to see the likes of Neves, Neymar, etc. So I'd have them on the bench at least, if only to play cameo roles.

Tough sh!t for yeovil fans

You would normally expect a much changed team against Yeovil but Nuno could decide that this game would be more helpful than just the training ground to get his team used to playing together

Check out the video of Coventry's game yesterday if you get chance. Great run and set up by Duke Nazon for one of the goals

Seriously, Yeovil are a troop of uncouth baboons. I'll highlight every single assault as the match thread unfolds and you'll all agree that UNC Knows.

Neymar? Did I miss something?

I expect the Yeovil team to resemble last seasons starting line up, plus Vinagre, Bennett and Norris.

Our star players are far to valuable to risk against straw chewing west country yokels.

Is there a live stream of the Yeovil game for non uk residents?

Fosun are skinflints not going in for Neymar really.

But with the amount we have spent on players at Championship level it does make you wonder what kind of player they would bring in if we did get to the Premier League

Is there not a limit on foreign players in the first 11 we have to be aware of ?

Have to have a certain amount of home growns, five was it? Maybe six?

we started with 6 foreign saturday, 7 counting eno.

Have to have 6 homegrown players in the squad. That's first 11 and subs and we were well into double figures that satisfied that on Saturday

so with 11 foreigners in the team and 7 british, or english ?, subs we could have brexit before brexit

6 home grown subs fits the bill.

But the rules that define what home grown means needs some understanding. Eno is Nigerian but joined the Wolves academy at 15 so probably counts as home grown

That's a mouth watering prospect really, but it was interesting to hear Jeff in the Sky documentary trotting out the old "young and hungry" line. Fousn do seem to be interested in investment, ie buying the best available young talent and developing them. Which is great provided that we see the best of them, I wouldn't be so happy seeing us become a club that exists to sell players on for profit, I want to see Fosun make their return on merchandise, a club shop in Shanghai knocking out thousands of Neves 8 shirts in while he is in his prime and still playing for us. This hopefully is the direction they are taking us.
