The Big Build Up
This weekend we play host to our friends from Wolverhampton in what can only be described as a mid table clash both in terms of League position and current form.
Town come into this weekends game after beating Forest away last weekend which by all accounts was the perfect away performance, and Wagner even described it as the best since his arrival and as far as I'm aware we have no new injury problems so I can't see too many changes in the line up, maybe Paterson back in?
Wolves however will be missing James Henry who departed the PNE game with hamstring trouble and he'll be out for about 3 weeks. Mike Williamson won't play either as Buzz Lightyear says he needs a reserve game under his belt before coming back to first team action

Benik Afobe
Benik joined Town on loan in the 2010/11 season where he spent much of his time playing up front on his own and even keeping goal machine Jordan Rhodes out of the starting eleven. 28 games in total for the Terriers with a return of 5 goals.
During the 2014/15 season Benik joined Wolves for a fee believed to be about £2million and he scored 22 goals in 46 games before moving onto Bournemouth for £10million this last January.

Adam 'Stepover kid' Hammill.
Wolves signed the stepover kid from Barnsley when they met the £500k release in his contract, however he only made 23 appearances for Wolves scoring 0 goals before Town took a chance on him. He was decent in his first season but faded badly, 66games with a return of 6 goals
Now plying his trade at Barnsley and providing he stays free will be playing in the JPT final at Wembley next month.

Chris Marsden
arrived at Town in 1988 and grew as a player in time 121 games for the Terriers with 9 goals but turned in some terrific performances, strangely loaned to Premiership Cov City if I remember correctly
Just 8 games for Wolves with 0 goals
Went on to play premiership football for Southampton, here he is doing his best John Barnes impression
Mel Eves
Blast from the past, come on then...who remembers him?
Mel was a local Wolves lad made 180 appearances for them scoring 44 goals between 1975 and 1984.
Towards the end of his Wolves career he joined Town on loan in 84 scoring 4 goals in 7 games but despite that form we never got round to signing him up

Wakeys Big Match prediction
A tough one to call, down at Wolves we started brightly but failed to take our chances and ended up soundly beaten. I'm going to stick my neck out and go for a tight 2-1 home victory
