That just about makes you a yam yam! From Wiki.....People that live in the Black Country are very proud of the way they speak. They have their own dialect and vocabulary as opposed to just being a different accent. 'yam yam' sound when saying certain phrases. 'You are' is pronounced yo'am and 'are you' is pronounced 'am ya'.

Really pleased with this draw.. I remember having the Wolves kit as kid and kind of adopting them as my second team though for the life of me I can't think why.. Fond childhood memories I guess.. I'll definitely be going..

Good afternoon ladies and gents. As you might guess from my login name I'm a Wolves fan. I'm here in peace so be gentle! I'm very glad that our two sides are going to play each other in the cup. Irene Goodnight is always good to hear and I hope you will be travelling in large numbers to support your boys. I have a feeling the last time we played you was in a pre season testimonial game at the Memorial Ground back in 2003. I have to say that I have a soft spot for you Gasheads. I lived on Greenbank off Stapleton road for a couple of years in 2001-2 and I do love the city (if not your friends from South Bristol!). I've had some great times in the Black Swan and the Plough (where dj Derek used to spin his reggae and dub vinyl. Such a shame about him!) and also in many of the pubs on the Gloucester road. Anyway I'm really pleased to see you seem to be on the up again after your season on loan to the conference and back to back promotions. Here's hoping you can go up again, preferably at the expense of that other lot! Hope you enjoy your visit to Molineux if not the result! Cheers!

Apart from the big 6 - Man Utd, Man City, Arsenal, Spurs, Chelsea & Liverpool - and maybe West Ham, Wolves would be my favourite draw.
There isn't another Premier League side I'd have favoured over Wolves.
It must be 25 years since we last played them and Molineux is a quality stadium that many of our fans will have never been to.
It's also only 90 miles up the road which should mean we have an excellent following.

I imagine at the least you should get the whole lower tier of the Steve Bull stand. I guess that it holds over 3000. However as it is a cup game you may well get a larger allocation if the demand is there. I'm hoping that Wolves are sensible enough to realise that by making the tickets cheaper for this they might sell a lot more and I hope also that they are sensible enough to extend that to you away fans too. With no disrespect at all meant £25 is a lot to watch our reserves play a lower league side, so I really hope they are longsighted about it and see it as an opportunity to bring in some youngsters who might otherwise not go. After all empty seats create no atmosphere and buy no merchandise, wheras affordable tickets might encourage people to bring their kids along. It's vital that kids aren't priced out of attending live football.

Another wolves fan! Looks like both sets of fans are happy with the draw we will defiantly have our second string out for the game nuno stated before the season started that we will have a different team for league and cups. With the signing we made during the summer our second team is probably about mid table championship standards and by the time we play you will probably have helda Costa in it to gain fitness. Ticket wise you will be given the ste bull lower to begin will if you sell them (around 2500) you will be given the quadrant in the new stand next to the away end holds around 1700 they are much better seats and easier to create an atmosphere in there so if you look like selling your initial allocation I'd hold out for them seats. Tickets prices haven't been set yet but fosun and our new CEO are doing loads of ticket offers to get the ground full and try to get back some of our lapsed support so I reckon they will charge £10 adult £5 kids possibly even cheaper

Mate, it would be an absolute pleasure to do that. Our record against Bristol Sport 1982 ltd (that does make me laugh, I must confess) has been pretty good over the years. Last season's away defeat was the first we had suffered at their hands in a long old time. I'm particularly fond of our 6-1 win at Shaton Gate in the 1990s when David Connolly scored 4 and our mascot Wolfie got in a fight with some people in pig costumes (or was it just their away kit?).

Funnily enough I was at that infamous mascot game, in the Wolves end I must add. A friend of the family is a massive Wolves fan, had a spare ticket and took me along. Wolves absolutely destroyed them that day... Benny Lennartson was the sh** manager and Mark McGhee had just left Wolves if I remember correctly.

Would take a loss to you guys if it meant 6 point from the pigs always had a disliking for them even thou we normally beat them. That game was my first ever away day and still up there as one of the best. How many do you think you guys will bring when I've seen highlights of your games you always seem to take decent numbers

Our 89 visit to Molineux was one of the great away days. Wolves fans gave Kenny Hibbitt a fantastic reception and we nicked it with a brilliant goal by Dennis Bailey. Great atmosphere too, even though, if I remember rightly, only two sides of the ground were open. Is that hulking great stand still miles away from the pitch?
