SUNDAY, against Stoke, was nothing short of a disaster. The performance and result, with no disrespect to Stoke, made the decision by the bookies to make Wolves promotion favorites look ridiculous. Now it's time to put it right. Wolves Vs Preston.

SUNDAY, against Stoke, was nothing short of a disaster. The performance and result, with no disrespect to Stoke, made the decision by the bookies to make Wolves promotion favorites look ridiculous. Now it's time to put it right. Wolves Vs Preston.

We have all had our moan about Sunday. The in-house fighting and the unchallenged acrobatics of Paul Jones were embarrassing enough on Live TV to be mentioned again. The performance was pathetic, but it's time to forget and move on.

Tomorrow night see's Preston North End head to Molineux in the first home Coca Cola Championship game of the season. The visitors are without hot-shot Ricardo Fuller whilst Wolves will be pleased to see the return of Captain Paul Ince.

Murray, Lescott, Ganea, Ndah and Cort are still injured and Cameron, Bjorklund and Sturridge can now be added to that list since the nightmare at the Britannia. The striking disaster means that Leon Clarke, who made his first team debut as a second half substitute on Sunday, will start the game with Kenny Miller in attack.

Who's Hot, Who's Not.
Hot	Paul Ince - The fighting between Miller and Newton against Stoke would never have happened if Ince had been on the field. His return to the side will be welcomed with open arms.
Not	Vio Ganea - Out injured for the season.
Crocked	Murray, Lescott, Ndah, Cort, Sturridge, Bjorklund*, Cameron* :* rated 50/50
Possible Line-Up	Jones, Edwards, Naylor, Clyde, Craddock, Kennedy, Newton, Olofinjana, Ince, Miller, Clarke.
Subs (From)	Oakes, Cooper, Bjorklund, Clarke, Clingan, Andrews, Mulligan, Cameron
