From the despair of conceding late to lose against Bournemouth, to the euphoria of winning this one. This tasted as sweet as the win at Spurs. More please Town.
We have been crying out for a bit of luck. How we wanted to see a goal go in off somebody’s backside or any other part of their anatomy to contribute to a win.
That finally happened on Saturday. It might not have been a Town player who had that final piece of fortune, but our opening goal was comical to say the least.

We had turned a very unhappy home crowd and were on course for completing the perfect mission. But of course, it is never that easy for us in this league.
When Wolves equalised, the daggers were out for Aro Muric once again. Before I go any further, I am not defending anything that has happened in previous games here.
I just want to make a point about this game, in isolation. I tried to make a point on social media straight after Saturday’s game. But with limited characters, a few struggled with the context of my point. So, I will try again.
Once that goal went in, comments were that Muric had cost us the game. With around 20 minutes still to go, I was shaking my head as to how some of our fans give up so easily these days.

Either way, it happened and there were clearly arguments to be had either way around Muric’s part in the goal.
The point is, the game was not lost at this stage. If after the final whistle I had written that Muric had cost us the game, I would have been reminded that we had won 2-1 and slaughtered for such a remark. So why say it with a quarter of the game left?
Fortunately, for both Town and Muric, a winner was to come. Step forward Jack Taylor.
The last time Town played Wolves it was at Portman Road. I was halfway up a Spanish hillside when news came through that we had gone two goals behind in a League Cup tie.

He duly joined an illustrious list of current players to score in all four divisions. The scenes his goal caused were incredible.
Since the game, several Wolves fans have been magnanimous in defeat citing our support as the best to visit Molineux so far this season. It is par for the course though for our travelling fans this season, who are always immense.
The on-field scenes after the final whistle on the part of the hosts, utterly embarrassing. They already had their issues earlier in the week after defeat at West Ham.
But clearly, nothing had been learnt. The sight of Rayan Aït-Nouri having to be man-handled away from the pitch after his red card was shameful.
But not as poor as Cunha’s elbow to the back of the head of a member of Ipswich’s security team before he then ripped the same man’s glasses off his face.

Both Wolves and the FA need to deal with this in the strictest possible terms.
If you saw Gary O’Neil’s post-match interview, you would have also seen him make some unflattering comments about his players.
No matter where we end up this season, our spirit and the way in which Kieran McKenna always conducts himself with well-thought and carefully considered words will never see us as that type of club.
Three much-need points then and now it is just the small matter of Newcastle on Saturday before two massive festive games. Our rollercoaster ride continues.
