Well another chance for us to progress in this competition. I read Dave Edwards, Kortney Hause, Emi Martinez and Scott Golbourne are all out through injury so the selection will again be of interest. I just hope Kenny asks the players to go for it.
We're up against it however as Boro will be going for their 6th straight win. Compare that to our illustrious current run! And to all those who don't believe in bogey sides, well whatever the probability of a win, lose or draw in an individual match, we ay beat them at their place since the 50s.
In summary, they are one of our big bogey sides - a bit like Brighton but I didn't realise that until I read Badges stats at the weekend.
Up the Wolves! Let's hope for a miracle.

April 11 1951 was the last win at Boro. It ended 2-1 Since then we have met and failed to win in 23 (14 lost 9 Drawn).
Brighton , Bolton , Middlesbrough .. who isn't a bogey team ? Maybe Huddersfield coming up soon but they hammered us last season as well didn't they.
Our record is tight against Huddersfield. We lost at home last season but beat them at their place which was a first win in 12 i think.

Says it all really
Did any of you lot out there go to the last match of the season in 1992? Boro needed a win to be promoted and we were well off the pace in mid table (still some very good players in that side).
What I remember most, other than losing, was the bomb scare before the match and after my usual journey up from Devon worrying frantically whether the match would go ahead. Apparently there were loads of shot gun capsules / bullets dug into the ground (or the like). I was in the upper Steve Bull that day.
Anyway we lost - but here are some highlights which shows Molineux in transition and getting close to the final hurrah for the South Bank. If you look at the pitch there are plenty of patches which I am sure are due to the 'terrorist' activity. Can you imagine this match being played today?

17' Van La Parra breaks clear of the Boro back line, he cuts back onto his right and looks to pull across the box but it's cut out.
18' Another Albert Adomah cross from the right wing is headed back to Ikeme by Doherty at the back post. Assured defending.
20' Wallace's teasing cross is almost met by Deslandes but the home side get back and head behind for a corner
20' Follow-up corner looks for Saville at the near post but again the home side clear behind for a corner.

Still even, Wolves looking comfy on the ball, Midds playing dirty.
Neither keeper seriously tested yet.
Wolves 2 up on corners.

21' Wallace delivers the corner deep towards the back post by Tomas Mejias gets out well to claim and kick downfield.
Said three corners on the blog.

23' Drilled cross from the left wing is well gathered by Ikeme. Was a dangerous ball in the direction of Albert Adomah
Brief spell of pressure form the home side but Wolves are defending resolutely.
30' Enobakhare sets Wallace on the angle of the Boro box, Wallace tries to wrap his foot round the ball but his effort misses wide.
Can't really commit on doing the threads for the foreseeable, serious problems my end. You do a good job of it anyway...cheers Badge.
Sunderland getting a pasting. 0-4 down to Man City. So glad we was not drawn against City.
Bad mistake from Iorfa for the goal. Friend with the cross and Iorfa got himself in a muddle.
Blog said it was Ebanks-Landell who made the error and not Iorfa. But sure it was iorfa as stated on sky.
Bayern Munchen score five in nine minutes.

it said it was ebanks landell on the wolves player, but same old story mistake from a central defender plus sh#te going forward and no shots on goal.
A familiar first half story?
Just got in, so I'm hooked up to The Wolf 107.7. Thommo is co-commentator. He talks a lot of sense.

Thanks for the updates everybody, much appreciated even though the game sounds rough
Just announced the attendance is 13,000 + . There is an official 312 poor Wolves souls there, my hat goes off for them.
Currently 'wave after wave' of Boro attacks

Ian everyone appreciates what you do on the match thread. Badge often goes to the home games, so please continue to do what you can.
Looking at comments so far it seems to have been pretty close in the first half considering nine changes to our team. This really is a chance for some of our players to stake a claim for a regular place, including MacDonald!!

Well that's the end of our 'cup run'. 2-0 and according to the commentary it was 'just to easy'. Tempo is low, hesitation on the ball, lack of tackles, poor team play.
ALF and Afobe now on for Bright and VPL

64' A cross from the left wing finds Albert Adomah unmarked at the back post. He takes a touch and finishes for his second of the game.
Badge - are you listening?
The Wolf are receiving 'loads' of 'very negative' emails about this performance.
The Preston match looks very important on Saturday. Our confidence will surely take an almighty knock from tonight.

No got the blog on and watching the goals on sky. Talk of doing Morgan out t-shirts on the blog.
Thommo commenting about our complete lack of defensive experience, nobody to guide and take charge. It's deja vu all over again

Soon as I saw the line up I knew we was out.
True enough but unfortunately these are the 'men' backing up our first team - or in it in some cases. Alarming stuff.
Henry on for Saville. Commentary reckon it was one of Savilles better Wolves performances
I am really worried about our prospects at Preston now who can leap frog us on saturday.

Ian for a change while you are down you may enjoy Grandmas Weapons Grade Ginger Beer, A Beer of Mass Destruction brewed by the Wheal Maiden Brewery at St Day, well worth looking out and if you are still down here next month its the Falmouth Beer Festival which has a good cider section. Hope things work out for you

Thanks Truro Pete.
Jan bought me a lovely bottle of Porter ale, the name slips me now. I'll look out for those you've mentioned.
We're being put up in Stithians while down in Helston.
