Portuguese Men o’ Wolves – Part 29: On the Fidal | @NTR9798

Bom Dia! and welcome back to Molineux, which isn’t a nice place to be at the minute after Wolves endured their worst run to date last week, going 10 games without a win, resulting in the Board considering Nick’s future. Can they turn it around with 12 games of the season to go? Here’s Nick…

Here’s a quick glance at the table before we begin. We’re still 8th, so although the title is probably too much to ask, we can still finish in the European spots and salvage something from a season that started so well before it turned ugly. Time to stand up and be counted…

Portuguese Men o’ Wolves – Part 28: National treasures | @NTR9798

Bom Dia and happy Red Nose Day to you! It’s Friday, and what better way to round the week off than by catching up with Nick and his Wolves from Portugal. They’ve made a fantastic start to season eight, but have they peaked too soon? Here’s the Molineux Akela himself with the latest…

I couldn’t really have asked for much more last week if I’m honest, but as we’ve seen time and time again during 28 years of playing this beloved game, your good form can instantly turn on its head, so I just pray we can keep it up. Let’s f*cking go…

Portuguese Men o’ Wolves – Part 27: Ama-wow! | @NTR9798

Bom Dia! and welcome to season eight with Nick and his Portuguese pack of Wolves. Their four seasons in the Premiership have been a mixed bag so far, but will this be the season where they finally find some badly-needed consistency? Over to Nick…

Before we begin, here’s a reminder of how the squad is looking. José Dominguez was the marquee summer signing for a whopping £62k, Mario Raul came in from Barcelona, and Zezinho, Eduardo, Mozer, Secretario and Hugo are all regens who cost nothing…

Portuguese Men o’ Wolves – Part 26: Coel-den boot | @NTR9798

Bom Dia! and welcome to the season seven finale with Nick and his Wolves of the Portuguese variety. Their form has been up and down more than Ruben Amorim’s heart rate lately, but can they get it together for the remaining nine games to mount a title challenge? Over to Nick…

To be in fourth place is quite remarkable considering some of the results we’ve had so far. It’s all about the draws really, there have been far too many of them. If we’d won just half of them, we’d now be top of the table…

Portuguese Men o’ Wolves – Part 25: Bianconeri battle | @NTR9798

Bom Dia! and welcome. It’s time once again to visit Molineux, where after a frustrating start to season six, Nick and his Portuguese Wolves have finally started to pick up some form. Can they keep up the good work with a Champions League quarter final against a European heavyweight looming?

We’re 8th at the halfway point of the season. Goals were a problem at the start, but we’ve finally got our act together in that department and the results have come with it. We’re only 4 points off the top, so it’s still very much all to play for. Let’s see where this week takes us…

Portuguese Men o’ Wolves – Part 24: The resurrection | @NTR9798

Bom Dia! It’s that time of the week again, so let’s check in with Nick, who has just about calmed down after a frustrating time last week. Can he and his Portugueezers bounce back after a less than impressive recent run of results? Here’s Nick with the latest…

The league table isn’t looking great, but things aren’t as bad as they seem because we have a game in hand, and if we can win that, it’ll take us up to joint 3rd place, so let’s try and do just that to start this week as we mean to go on…

Portuguese Men o’ Wolves – Part 23: Sweet charity | @NTR9798

Bom Dia! and happy Valentine’s Day to all you Champ lovers out there! Nick and his Portuguese Wolf pack have just enjoyed their best season yet, finishing runners-up in the Premiership. Can they build on it?…

The dust has barely settled after our final game, and I’m straight to work on the squad. Riccy is first to depart…

Portuguese Men o’ Wolves – Part 22: Figo or no? | @NTR9798

Bom Dia! It’s Friday, and time to visit Nick and his squad of Portuguese talent at Wolves, who are well-positioned in season 6 with 15 games left. Can they hang on for another European finish or perhaps even better? Here’s the man himself…

Liverpool are emulating their real life “Slot Machine” at the minute, and closing that 10-point gap is a lot to ask, but let’s see if we can at least give them a run for their money…

Portuguese Men o’ Wolves – Part 21: An old flame | @NTR9798

Bom Dia! and welcome back to Molineux as we check in with Nick to see how he and his Portuguese-only Wolves squad are getting on. A change in formation has seen them start season six impressively, but they’ve always struggled with consistency, so can they keep it up? Here’s Nick with the latest…

After twelve games were 4th, which isn’t to be sniffed at. Liverpool lead the way just as in real life, but 5 points isn’t an insurmountable gap, so let’s see what we can do to catch them.

Portuguese Men o’ Wolves – Part 20: Old habits | @NTR9798

Bom Dia! and welcome to season six with Nick and his squad of Portuguese Wolves. After getting to the Premiership at the third time of asking, they’ve finished 4th and 11th and got to the UEFA Cup semis, so what will this season hold in store? Over to Nick…

Here’s our Graham with a quick reminder of the squad before we get into the action. After the disappointment of last season, I bought some fullbacks over the summer in the hope that a change in formation might mean a change in fortunes. So, let’s get started…
