I was also interviewed for a great new footy service just after the game and you can hear my waffle as well as some more interesting and fun stuff here:

My report ...
Matt Doherty believes promotion favourites Wolves might need to buy two strikers if they lose Kevin Doyle.
Right back Doherty, 21, scored a last gasp winner, but sees the £6 million rated Republic of Ireland hit man as someone who could fire Wolves back into the Championship.
Midfielder Bakary Sako crossed the ball over from the left to leave keeper Frank Fielding flat-footed and left back Doherty bundled the ball in from two yards with five minutes on the clock as defender Aden Flint and Doyle followed it over the line.
My piece from Sunday's paper
Doyle has been linked with a move to Swansea as Wolves try to ease their wage bill and Doherty said:
"If he left we'd have to get a striker or two in because he's that good. I don't think you'd get a striker who's as good as him to come to League One. I don't know what the story between him and the club is, but we'd obviously like to keep him as players."
And Doherty is hoping to tie up his own future at Molineux with only twelve months left on his current contract. He explained:
"We are negotiating, but if it is not right for both parties, then it is not right. But I want to stay. I want to be a part of, hopefully, promotion."
Midfielder Bakary Sako put Wolves ahead with a 22nd minute free kick. Full back Greg Cunningham up-ended Doyle 25 yards from goal and Sako blasted the free kick over the wall and past helpless keeper Frank Fielding into the top corner.
Sako's goal
But Jay Emmanuel-Thomas gave City hope in the 53rd minute by scoring his third goal in the first three league starts.Striker Emmanuel-Thomas admitted:
"We're very frustrated with the end result, but very pleased with the second half performance."
Wolves manager Kenny Jackett was delighted with the result and said:
“It’s seven points from nine and two of those games have been away. But I feel a start is ten games – that would give us a really good reflection of where we are.”
"After they equalised, that was our test. I was delighted to come through that and a telling contribution six minutes from time has given us a fantastic win."
Robins boss Sean O'Driscoll fumed:
"You've got to make sure you get enough possession of the ball off the fifty-fifties to enable you to stamp your authority on he game and Wolves did that far better than us."
"The only inevitability in football is that you're going to lose and I'd rather lose in the way we played in the second half than the way we played in the first half."
