The Wonderkids – Part Twenty-Eight: You’ve Got To Roll With It

Happy hump day! Here’s Andrew with the latest from The Wonderkids

Hello and welcome back again to The Wonderkids! You can catch up with last week here where we continued to, unusually for us, cruise through the league season and have a laughably non-existent battle with our nemesis Bryan Robson and also with the Wonderkids B team. Here’s a reminder of the table:

The Wonderkids – Part Twenty-Seven: Doing a Yuri-Turn

Hump day is here and like clockwork, so is Andrew. What are the Wonderkids up to this week?

Hello and welcome back to the latest from The Wonderkids. If you missed the start of season seven you can catch up here. We left you last having made our best start to a Premier Division season but lost the Charity Shield ending the chance of a repeat sweep. Here’s a reminder of the table:

The Wonderkids – Park Twenty-Six: Beto Luck Next Time

Hump day! King of the Rooks is back in the saddle with the latest season for the Wonderkids.

Hello…are you still with us? Welcome back to The Wonderkids! Here we are about to commence season 7 of our adventure, we’ve won the Premier League three times on the bounce and the FA Cup, League Cup, Charity Shield and Champions League two times on the spin also.

The Wonderkids – Part Twenty-Five: Running on Fumes

Welcome back to The Wonderkids where we take on the final stages of season six! You can catch up with last week here. We’re still in with a shot at all competitions, that said we’ve almost lost as many games as last season already, we’ve drawn an awful lot and we’re hanging on to the form of the minority of the squad with a good chunk out on loan or unhappy. Here’s where we left off:

The Wonderkids – Part Twenty-Four: Didier Doh’mi

Happy hump day! Here’s Andrew with the latest edition of the Wonderkids.

Hello and welcome back to The Wonderkids where we are making our way through season six. You can catch up with last week here. We’ve set a high bar last season and the board are holding us to it. We’ve got two trophies in the bag, and we’re still in with a shot at all other trophies so far. The squad is a mixed bag however and we’re now without our two main attacking support players. Here’s where we left off last time out:

The Wonderkids – Part Twenty-Three: Can’t Get No (More Than) Satisfaction

Welcome back to the latest part of The Wonderkids. If you missed the start of season six, you can catch up here. We’ve made what we think is a fairly positive start to our third season in the topflight, but the board disagree. We’ve made one addition to the squad and appear largely to have improved. Only time will tell. Here’s a reminder of where we left things:

The Wonderkids – Part Twenty-Two: Blunderkids?

“Wonder…a person or thing regarded as very good, remarkable, or effective” …

Hello again and welcome to season six of The Wonderkids! What is remarkable is that we are still going, largely with the same squad (plus a few adjustments along the way) and achieving some relative success, dragging ourselves to an improbable title defence last season. All that alludes us now is the World Club Cup, the European Super Cup, The Cup Winners Cup (if we can finish low enough), the UEFA Cup (again, assuming we can finish low enough) and the Division One title which Wolves snatched from our grasp a few seasons ago. You can catch-up with last season’s finale here.

We’ve managed to bring one minus man in…

The Wonderkids – Part Twenty-One: The Long Road Home

Hello and welcome back to The Wonderkids where our minus men are closing out season 5 of their existence. If you missed it, you can catch-up with last week here. We had a torrid start to our season and started out in the bottom half of the table. Multiple cup-runs have left us playing catch-up and we remain 5 points behind the leaders, but this time with a game in hand and 11 games to go. Here’s a reminder of our position:

The Wonderkids – Part Twenty: Keeping Cup Appearances

Hello and welcome to the next part in our Wonderkids journey. If you’ve missed how our title defence kicked off over the last few weeks, you can catch-up from the start of season 5 here. Last time out we’d made some good progress during autumn only to lose it all in two games. We continue to wait on the outcome of the final two Champions League games to see if we make it through as best runners-up. A reminder of our current standing:

The Wonderkids – Part Nineteen: All for Nothing

Hello and welcome to this weeks Wonderkids. If you missed the re-start you can catch up with last week here. Last time up we started out on our title defence and our first European adventure. It’s fair to say it has been a rather shambolic start from the standards we set ourselves over the last 4 seasons. Here’s how we left the table:
