If ever there was a certainty in football, it is that Wolves will pick up three points today when they entertain relegation bound Notts County. You could, quite safely, bet your mortgage on it. Brentford, meanwhile, face the tricky prospect of a trip to storm-lashed Crewe and, whilst current reports say ‘Game on’, the elements could well be somewhat of a proverbial ‘leveller’.
For me, there is no such thing as a ‘must win’ game with this much of the season remaining. However, with Wolves as good as adding another notch to the ‘W’ column, anything but a victory for the Bees will see us overtaken at the top of the table.

Thanks for reading over the course of the campaign. For now I need to make space on this page for any follow up. The ‘close season’ / World Cup columns continue in full, further on in this site.

Anything can happen in football, take last week’s surprise result when Bristol City beat Leyton Orient in East London. So, maybe Notts County can do us a similar favour in a similar way at Wolves today?
I agree. Nothing is guaranteed in football, and we should be worrying about ourselves in any case – not poxy Wolves.
That’s the spirit. I’m not worried about us – because I believe we’ll win the league. That said, I like to try and provide a bit of balance and look at the bigger picture.
You can’t deny that our closest rivals (who are at GP next) have an easier looking game, on paper.
That said, I think we’ll win today regardless. And next week.
Things would just get bit boring (well, maybe more boring) if I only wrote about the Bees and nothing else going on around us
Your vocabulary is as crude and as blunt as the football Brentford play
