WHAT A GAME !! ONE OF MY FAVOURITES I HAVE EVER BEEN TWO !! UP THERE WITH STOKE AWAY !!   Fletch, Joe, Murphy & Ash travelled to yam yam land for this one. Murphy getting a free ticket due to Warren's double wrist break. A couple of cans on the train and the lads where soon there for the mid day kick off !! The old bill being the tossers they are kept loads of the Birmingham fans as late as possible and walked them to the ground !! The yam yam tosspots where giving hand gestures as the bluezu's arrived !! We'll see who has the last laugh !!   The game began and a cracking first half saw Wolves on top and make about six great chances, Colin Doyle was outstanding in the Birmingham goal and kept the hosts out !! Birmingham very much in the game also made three or four decent chances but could not find a way through. Half time 0-0.   The second half began and Birmingham struck first, Nicholas Bendtner flicked on a Colin Doyle boot up field and Andy Cole rolled back the years to flick the ball past the dingle goalkeeper and in to the net. Cole was soon replaced and Wolves come back in to the game. Chances at both ends but then the scummy dingles stuck twice in five minutes to go 2-1 in front. It wasn't looking good but then Nicholas Bendtner powered in a header from a Mcsheffery corner out of the blue and Blues where level. With just a few minutes to go Cameron Jerome was played through down the left, Fletch screamed to square it to Mcsheffery or Bendtner who where in the middle but Jerome went alone and tucked and tucked under Murphy and in the back of the net. Jerome taunted the Wolves supporters before running to the Birmingham supporters who where going crazy. Still the drama had not finished and poor refereeing adjudged Bruno N'Gotty to have commited a foul in the area in stoppage and Wolves where awarded a penalty. Michael Knightly stepped up to complete his hatrick but Doyle guessed right and saved his weak penalty. The Birmingham fans where exstatic and the full time whistle soon followed with the Birmingham players and supporters going wild as they knew the job was almost run and a return to the premiership was almost complete !!   The lads left happy as larry, Murphy and Ash headed home while Joe and Fletch went for a beer with Craig and Joes mate, a few beers and back to brum it was with premiership football almost guaranteed for the following season !!
