    Why couldn't you take the lad with you?

    Well I was only offered one free ticket for a start. Plus taking a 2 year old to a match is close to my definition of hell.

    What would be the expectation for Wolves back in the Championship next season?
    Will a season of solid mid- table be acceptable or will Jackett be under pressure to be aiming for Top 6?
    What are the chances of back to back promotions for Wolves, just like Norwich and Southampton have achieved in recent seasons?

    Personally I'd be happy with a solid mid table finish but I think many Wolves fans will be expecting a strong tilt at the play offs. We've got 2 more seasons of premier league parachute payments so I'm guessing the board will be wanting us sniffing around the promotion race sooner rather than later

    I would expect the Wolves to be challenging

    Fair enough. I wouldn't take my 5 year old daughter to sit with me in the Kop at Meadow Lane

    I would also expect the Wolves fans to be challenging. I have to say Kenny Jackett has done a brilliant job, the main thing he has done is bring a sense of team spirit to the club, and got rid of the bad apples.

    Really? I'd say we've got very few if any players who are Premier League standard. Maybe Sako when he fancies it, not sure who else.

    This is definitely the last time I turn down a free ticket! Although I did ask the boss for the day off and she said no.

    I wonder when the last time we were involved in a 10 goal thriller was?

    Yes - probably not regular fans?

    Did the pitch invasions come from the South Bank? In which case they probably were regular fans.

    Yep - the invasions came from the south bank. When the rest of the South Bank chanted "Where were you when we were shit" a few of them waved their season ticket cards at us so at least some of them were regulars

    No problem with an invasion at the end of the game although I don't quite know why it was necessary cos we hadn't won the title or anything. But invading after a goal was stupid and invading cos the ball had hit the side netting was just plain embarrassing!!

    By the way if anyone was wondering, last time there was 10 goals at Molineux was 27th November 1965 when we beat Portsmouth 8-2! We also lost 9-3 away to Southampton that year.

    Hi Rotherham fan here

    I knew this would be a good game after the first game at New York stadium, wish I was there yesterday. A lot of our fans was full of praise for your fans not those that went on the pitch. Just like to congratulate you on a very good season. I know some may say you had the money but you have still got to get the right squad. Anyway good luck for next season and hope to see you there.

    Up the millers

    The referee would have been well within his rights to abandon the game.

    He would yes, but it would have been a complete overreaction. I can't remember the last time I game was abandoned because of a pitch invasion.

    If it was one pitch invasion yes, I think when you get to 3 or 4 pitch invasions in the same match it probably isn't. It wasn't as if we had scored a last minute goal to get promoted.

    What would have happened for instance if a Rotherham player faked injury, pretending he had being punched by a fan! (Extreme made up situation maybe, but certainly possible.)

    But this is not unique to Wolves though. I disagree with pitch invasions from fans from all clubs.
