WOLVES Vs Ipswich - (SS1 - 7.30) - Oh dear, oh dear, oh dear. It's a sad state of affairs when the only thing Wolves can take from this season is the chance of becoming the most boring side in English Football...ever!! But hey, let's milk it. New Page 1

Wolverhampton Wanderers are just four games away from becoming the most boring side in English History as Wolves notched up draw number 20 at Leicester City on Tuesday night.

Three more draws in the remaining five games would equal a record set by Norwich City, Exeter, Cardiff and Hartlepool for the most draws in a season (23), but Wolves have a chance of taking their crown between now and the end of the season.

It won't be plain sailing for Wolves though as Bristol Rovers are also currently sitting on 20 draws and, to make it even tougher for Glenn Hoddle's men, Ipswich Town visit Molineux on Monday night.

Ipswich have their own ambitions this season, but one would have to question how much ambition they have as Town have made a totally gutless attempt at taking the "Draw Specialist" tab.

Ipswich have taken a laughable ten draws from their 41 games this season and only have a chance of automatic promotion up for grabs. Tommy Miller is their only doubt as Joe Royal names the same squad which threw away the chance of a draw at home to Rotherham in mid-week by inexplicably scoring four goals.

Glenn Hoddle has no fresh injury worries - the golden goose of football, the crown of being the most boring side in English Football History is well in sight!

Come On You Wolves!

*SKYbet are offering odds of 11/2 on another 1-1 draw.
