After failing to score in three consecutive previous matches in the league and losing two of those games, it is heartening to see that Wolves can still bully the little people, especially when those little people are such paragons of virtue as Millwall.
It’s rare these days for the team to progress in any of the cups, so seeing the fourth round is almost unknown territory in recent years. I’m not sure what the club’s record in the League Cup (or whatever its sponsored name is these days) since the 1-0 win at Wembley in 1980 (I was there!), but I expect it’s pretty drab reading.
Anyway, a 5-0 thrashing of Millwall is always welcome, even if it was in front of a ten-year low of 7,749 spectators.
If only the Mighty Shrewsbury Town could have held on at the Emirates instead of being pegged back to a 3-1 defeat by Arsenal, it would have been a glorious night for local football back on my ancestral stomping grounds.
