Being embroiled in yet another relegation battle had me thinking about how we've rarely ever had long to wait for the next torturous instalment of promotion or relegation drama.

Our 11 year Premier League stretch aside, we have to go all the way back to the late 70s to enjoy a sustained period of stress-free mediocrity as Wanderers fans.

Obviously, this season is no different and we'll be biting our nails right down to the wire once again.

I've been up and down for weeks. I just can't call it.
I can see us beating Wolves and losing to Burton. That's how we do things.
I can't believe I've spent 60 years worrying about this shite.

Defeatist.
We can beat them. That's the madness of football.
They're promoted,and although not yet champions,psychologically,their foot may be off the gas.
Don't write us off here.

Down because I am a pessimist and because we have a history of going down by narrow margins in unfortunate ways. Remember the last time we got relegated from the Prem.

As soon as I'd pressed 'send' I knew some pervert would come back with that retort.
