Last Minute Winners

It's one of the great feelings in football. A last minute winner. This one wasn't totally undeserved by all accounts, we did have a perfectly good goal ruled out, after all. But maybe Wolves will feel a little hard done by, but frankly we don't care, it's an opening day three points for the first time since Neil Cox and Tommy Smith scored away at Huddersfield in 2000. Re-live the coolness of Marlon's penalty below.

An seemingly unlikely comeback (albeit from a greater deficit) at Plymouth was also the early kick-start to the season two years ago, so lets hope it inspires the boys on to great things again.

Off the pitch, you'll already know that Boozer went off to play for Northern Ireland, erm, sorry, Fulham. Aidy has said he's looking for a striker and a winger before the window shuts in 18-days time. The striker was rumoured to be Chinese youngster Dong Fangzhuo, on season-long loan from Manchester United, though the Rooney injury, yawn, may snag this up, though probably not really.
