Don't think so, just BT Sport by the looks of it. Sky. Ta mate, dunno why i thought BT.

It’s irrelevant whether or not it stops the ball going in, handball has to be intentional - it’s written clear as day in the rules and nobody ever seems to apply it. Handball must be deliberate (apart from the attacking side nonsense) Ah, interesting. If it has to be deliberate then surprised that was given. Strange. Not really with our standard of refereeing.

Do they? I thought intent had only been removed for attacking handball? Not that I know like. It was, technically, two years or so ago.

Couldn't happen to a nicer team

Zappacosta is a right back though.

That not Mike? Oh yeah definitely Mike.

Also teams will have figured out as Wolves have, to get in behind their wide centre halves as they push up attacking.

tbh, ashley looks the picture of health next to bruce. the fucker looks like he could keel over any second. he looks dreadful. True

Saw that live on Bet 365, the initial camera angle was from a way bit behind him. You didn't even realise it had gone in, it was such a good finish.

You know it could be as simple as two fat blokes get along.

If you don’t know by now or can’t see it, you never will. So, it’s pointless answering you. As Lao Tzu said ‘The water in the well cannot contemplate the ocean’

I honestly wonder what people actually see, Hendricks started the game slowly, and eventually became one of our best players on the day....baffled anyone could see things different.

Eh ? We only won 1 out of our first 7 games last season. I meant the first half of the season v the second half, but point taken. Ah right, carry on

Eh ? We only won 1 out of our first 7 games last season.

Wilson just looks an all-round better footballer. Aye, definitely.

Yeah, it's Bruce who has improved him. Well it's the best he played for us in the last season or so, i hate bacon but it's fairly true

He's improved under Bruce, weird but it's clear enough.

Callum has that extra yard of pace Dwight doesn't, also looks like he reacts that bit better at the higher level.

Very good tonight, tactically and in his subs. Can still fuck off if we get bought out.

Come on, we didn't just do that. We did go direct at times but that's just nonsense. There was an awful lot more than I'd like to be fucking seeing. Because if we rely so much on that as a tactic, we're relying on playing with Andy Carroll. We dont have another player that can fill that roll. That's what I'm most concerned about. Not really an inspiring thought going forward. Maybe it's the first game and that's what we had ready. Maybe we're working on more and there's different things to come. But if he's going with this tactic all season, it's a little worrying. We had some good performances from players and it was good to see effort and some quality from individuals. But the setup is at best average. There's so much more that could be done with those players. I get your point, if we try this without our injury prone big forward it won't work. Not trying to give Bruce any kind of tactical acumen, but maybe we set up this way as we were away, and it was West Ham, we might set different against others...time will tell i guess. Yeah maybe. And if so that's good. My opinion on this game would stay the same. I get why Fraser is unlikely to be fit. Almiron looked fit though and crow-barring 3 CMs in to a midfield 4 might work away to West Ham in the first game but you'll get what's coming to you. We didnt need plan B tonight. I'm just sceptical that we have one. Aye, that would be the worry. With more depth we might just have a plan B, not getting my hopes up mind.

No fans means he won't the get stick (he deserves), probably why he went, maybe.

Every time he smiles i go weak at the knees
