It`s back to the Capital On Saturday as Wolves still look for their first away win of the season to follow impressive performances over Leeds United and Blackburn Rovers. Charlton Vs Wolves

There is something about teams from London which does not go down well in the Wolves camp. Infact, we have failed to beat a team and have claimed just one point from any team based in the Capital this season.

 A 4-0 thumping by Saturdays hosts Charlton Athletic started the rot as far as London based teams are concerned. Chelsea and Arsenal reserves smashed us for five whilst Spurs scored another five before Arsenal`s first team scored 3.

 Charlton have been in superb form all season and their impressive league status, aided by recent England Squad addition Scott Parker has failed to go un-noticed.

 Wolves have failed to win away from Molineux since that glorious day in May at the Millennium Stadium, but as the law of averages states...

 Dave Jones, who was missing for the Blackburn game on Wednesday due to Flu is expected to return to the bench whilst Ganea could possibly make his first start in a Wolves strip following his move from Turkey to Wolverhampton.

 This will probably be the last game for the superb Henri Camara, who, despite not being able to hit a barn door from ten paces, has been in decent form for Wolves.

 Camara is due to leave for the African Nations Cup to represent Senegal at the final whistle.

 Finally, Charlton have added a nice new big screen, similar to those at Molineux, at The Valley which will be used for the first time on Saturday.

THE HOT TOPIC: Should Ferdinand be allowed to play against Wolves?

Calling All Wolves Fans, Manchester United Fans and Football Fans in General. We want you to take part in our hot debate, which this week is about Rio Ferdinand.

We ask you "Do You Think Rio Ferdinand Should Be Allowed To Play Against Wolves?"

Rio Ferdinand was due to start an 8-month ban from Football on the 12 January after failing to give a sample at a random drug test at the Manchester United training base last year.

He was found guilty, banned for 8 months and as the ban was due to start on the 12th January it means that Ferdinand would have been unable to play for the Red`s on January 17th when they play Wolves at Molineux.

However, as `clarification over the reasons behind his suspension will not be received until the middle of this week` it means that his ban will be delayed, meaning Rio Ferdinand will be allowed to play at Molineux on January the 17th.

We want readers now to debate on this issue. Do you believe the ban is fair, do you believe that it is right for a player who has been found guilty should play at Molineux? What are you views?
