Rovers have won two and drawn one of our last four visits to Wolves. After the Dennis Bailey match at Easter 1989, we've drawn 1-1 and won 3-2. I'll draw a veil over the last game there, in 1992...lost 5-1.
That's all ancient history.
I wondered what the current capacity is at Molineux for away fans.
From the Football Ground Guide, it would appear that there might be room for up to 4,350:
"Away fans are normally housed in the lower tier of the Steve Bull Stand along the side of the pitch. Up to 2,750 away supporters can be housed in this area. Fans in this stand are sat quite far back from the playing area, which gives the illusion that the pitch is larger than at most other grounds. For teams with larger away followings then also part of the Stan Cullis Stand can also be allocated. Around 1,600 fans can be accommodated in this area. Fans are housed in both the upper and lower tiers, of the Stan Cullis Stand, although tickets for the upper sections are sold first".

At least we have some record of positive results at Molineux. Personally I believe that the game is winnable.

I think it's a great draw.
No pressure.
We've already beaten a Champ side.
Within 2 hours of Bristol.
Enough room to house a sizeable away following.
Might give em a game..

From Wiki....People that live in the Black Country are very proud of the way they speak. They have their own dialect and vocabulary as opposed to just being a different accent. 'yam yam' sound when saying certain phrases. 'You are' is pronounced yo'am and 'are you' is pronounced 'am ya'.

Sorry to be pedantic - but I think you'll find Jasper Carrot is a blue nose... But they do talk in a very strange way indeed.
