AFTER Two wins on the road, it's back to Molineux for Wolves as we entertain Cardiff. Only a few hundred tickets remain. Can Wolves make it 9 points from 9? Let's just hope we don't get a penalty!
After missing a staggering 11 of the last 16 penalties, it's no surprise that Penalty duties have been handed to a new star in old gold. Miller, Cort, Olofinjana and Andrews have all missed penalties this season, but an unlikely source, in the shape of Lee Naylor, will step up if to the spot if Wolves are handed a penalty tomorrow.
Jones has brought in the Shrink, Tim O'Brien in to help kill the Penalty hoodoo, but should Wolves be awarded a penalty against Cardiff tomorrow, Lee Naylor or Shaun Newton will be taking the spot-kick.
"Lee and Shaun are both up for taking penalties but whoever takes it has got to put what has happened before to the back of their minds," said Jones in the pre-match press conference.
"There will be a buzz around the ground when we get our next penalty but they have just got to pick their spot and not change it. Whoever steps up to the plate has got to have a clear mind."
Wolves will hand a late fitness test to Joleon Lescott prior to the game, whilst the two Scotland Internationals, Kenny Miller and Colin Cameron are both expected to have overcome their injuries picked up at Plymouth and Brighton respectively.
