Wolves PodJockey Adam Thompson wonders if McCarthy's men are nothing without their wing wizards Kightly and Jarvis.

‘Woeful', ‘Abysmal', ‘Horrendous' were just some of the words that were used by a few unlucky Wolves fans who attended a miserable game (for us) in a bleak rain soaked Swansea. And I couldn't have put it better myself. After a disastrous 0-3 home defeat to Reading which saw wolves lose not only the watch but arguably the two best performers for Wolves this season in Michael Kightly and Matt Jarvis. The mumbles around Molineux were starting, the ‘Here we go again' seemed oh too familiar but remaining positive was a must for our trip to Swansea despite such setbacks.

Football FanCast columnist Adam Thompson applauds the appointment of Paul Ince and feels that he is more than capable of taking Blackburn Rovers to the next level.

At the backend of last season, (around the time when every insulting adjective was attached to Wolves Manager Mick McCarthy's name.), there came a cry for a new man to steer my club, the apparent ‘sleeping giant' back into the Premiership. Sam Allardyce, Steve McClaren even Graham Taylor were linked to the job. However the firm favourite was a man that had served Wolves well in his 4 year stay, a man that in his first season guided us to promotion and was the experienced head in our ill fated relegation season, that man was Paul Ince or as he likes to be known ‘The Guvnor'.

Football FanCast columnist Adam Thompson feels that Rafa Benitez must pull out the stops and bring in the one man who can make Liverpool serious title contenders.

Euro 2008 hasn't produced any unknown stars for me, in fact if anything it's only enhanced the growing reputations of stars who are dazzling their own domestic leagues, Lukas Podolski, Wesley Sneider and the Tottenham bound Luka Modric have all caught my eye. However one player has been simply fantastic (deadly even) all most as sharp as the lines in his goatee and the spikes on his head and that is Spain's David Villa.

Football FanCast columnist Adam Thompson can understand why Ronaldo may want to leave United and feels supporters sometimes forget that football is just a job, at the end of the day.

I sat in a pub with some work mates of mine discussing one of the hot topics at the moment - Cristiano Ronaldo's ‘will he won't he' transfer to Real Madrid. One slated his loyalty ‘a total disgrace to the club that stood by him after the aftermath of the 2006 World Cup' said he, the other argued ‘If someone is stupid enough to pay you that much money wouldn't you?'
