On this Good Friday are you also like the chief priests rejecting Jesus for the world? Pilate said to them, “Shall I crucify your King? [Jesus]” The chief priests answered, “We have no king but Caesar.” John 19:15

Can't quite believe that Wolves are no longer 17th and could get as high as 13th by end of the season. Massive turnaround from December in 19th on 9pts after 16 games played. New manager and 16 games later now 3 positions higher and 26 more points! 🐺🐺🐺

Ex-Wolves but still in the Premier League squad is pretty good.

Here's a blog post thingy I wrote last year. Hoping to find time to blog a bit more over this year. mrtaylormaths2.wordpress.com/2023/11/24/i...
