The postponement of Wolves' home game with Scunthorpe tonight was the first time in over four years a Molineux fixture had been cancelled.

Not a bad record that.

And while there is always going to be discussion about whether 5.40pm is an adequate time for a postponement, I think Wolves got it just about right.

They did everything in their power to try and get the game on, but still gave punters a couple of hours when finally realising it wasn't going to happen.

Anyway, I digress.

We may be a week after Valentines Day but for me this evening revived memories of that last time a Wolves game had been called off, against Liverpool in December, 2003.

On that occasion a mate of mine, once the game was postponed, went out on the town for one or two consolatory bevvies, met up with a young lady and formed the seeds of a happy relationship.

The two are still together to this day. And the chap remains a regular watcher of Wolves.

Without that postponement their paths may never have crossed.

I just wonder if the hand of fate might intervene in a similar way after tonight's cancellation - after all, it's a funny old game.
