    Thought it was a good move

    Wolves had gone narrow, putting Eastwood on, so we didn't necessarily need the width, Davey chose instead to compress the midfield to prevent them playing.

    Was that when Togwell was put on to pick up Eastwood

    who would cause problems just around the edge of our area ? To me it seemed inspired.... eastwood didn't havea touch.</p>

    Thought it was one of those decisions that managers make that has to be right or big criticism comes - so well done Davey. Last 20 mins he did tighten things up and it worked cos they didn't score. Nyatanga stopped going up for corners and we sat back a bit more as well as the narrowing mentioned.
    Devaney did have a good game and looked disappointed to go off.
