PREDICTION:
4th in the Championship
QPR vs Wolves was
a regular fixture up until our relegation in 2001 with Wolves having
the better results against us.
In the 1998/99 season Ian Dowie took charge of the team went we
travelled to Wolves. He brought around a great performance with
Mike Sheron scoring both goals in a 2-1 win but he failed to land
the managers job. The return game was not quite as great as they
beat us 1-0 and Karl Ready was sent off.
The following seasons saw two exciting games between the two teams.
I missed the home game as I was at my Uncles wedding but Gavin Peacock
scored to win us a point early in the season.
The away game was a thriller as Wolves went into a three goal lead
before half time with our old favourite Ade Akinbyi causing plenty
of problems. We fought back through Peacock and Slade but couldn't
get the point we fought so hard for.
Gavin Peacock continued his run against Wolves with both goals in
a 2-2 draw a year later at Loftus Road during our relegation season.
Our last game in Division one before our relegation was at Wolves.
The fans protested against a proposed merger with Wimbledon and
Paul Bruce earned us a point. After the game Alex Higgins, who was
on a short term contract, celebrated with the fans as if we had
won the European Cup rather than just been relegated to division
two.
In 2004/05 we made the trip to Molineux in torrential rain. The
pitch was virtually waterlogged before kick off and the game was
a bit of a farce. Carl Cort scored twice for the home side in a
game we deserved a draw out of. Kevin Gallen scored an excellent
goal in the last few minutes but it wasn’t enough.
The return game saw Gallen back up front for Rangers after a long
spell in midfield. He took his chance by giving us the lead with
a well taken goal and Rangers dominated against a Wolves side who
looked very poor. We managed to throw it away though when Carl Cort
grabbed a late equaliser.
Last season Wolves
thrashed us early on in the season as Carl Cort smashed in a hat
trick. The return game was 0-0 as Paul Jones produced an excellent
performamce.
