Here he comes. A bit late for me.

77' ...and Burton are really heaping the pressure on...COYW !!!

[GrizzledWolf]

80' and Kightly has been replaced...just before the Wolves fans lynched him !!!

[GrizzledWolf]

89' and Dicko slams the balll down after being ruled offside, and he gets booked for dissent.

Last minute of the game and Burton score to take the points...heartbreaking for us, but if we are to be honest they probably deserved the win. They clearly made the greater effort in the second half and I somehow expected things to go bad for us...but it still hurts

Typical. Bloody typical.

Heads need to come down from the clouds. Cup run or not, we still aren't safe in this league.

Just back home having watched the game in the Burton end. We were beaten by a very poor Burton side and were lucky it was only 2-1. We were dreadful, allowing ourselves to get dragged into a game of hoof ball. Burton had a central defender who stood about six feet ten and had the turning circle of a super- tanker. So what did we do? Hoof the ball to Dicho who cut a lonely frustrated figure. He couldn't buy a goal at the moment. We didn't try to pass the ball to feet and were lucky, no very lucky, to go in at half time one goal to the good. I stood about four yards away from the penalty and it was never a penalty in a month of Sundays.

I expected better in the second half, but by then Kites was running the show and it was no surprise that the home side got back into the game. Ikeme had already made two world class saves before his tap in. It was a relief to see him subbed. Our subs made very little difference and it was no surprise to see Burton get a deserved winner.

I fear the worst in the cup if Chelski turn up.

Cheers for the report Abbo. I followed the game on the Wolves Wall Blog and it looked bad even in print. Against Burton Albion, not good.
