Kightly’s keen to step up pressure

Michael Kightly today began banging the drum for a memorable Molineux finale in Sunday’s Championship play-off deciders.

Wolves’ squad will get a run out at tonight’s Darren Wrack testimonial at Walsall before resting up unitl Friday to begin preparations for the all-important Plymouth clash.

And Kightly is appealing to the Molineux faithful to help Mick McCarthy’s team deliver the result which will pile the pressure on Crystal Palace and Watford, the teams barring Wolves entry to the top six.

“We need to come out all guns blazing on Sunday and if the fans can make it a fortress for us then it will really help,” says Kightly.

“I’ve no doubt in my mind that is what they will do, really get behind us and we can come out flying.

“We need to win the game and hopefully we can do that. It is a pressure game but that’s the same for Watford and Palace.

“We’ve had some big games now even though we’re a young squad. At Leicester last year we went a goal down after two minutes and turned that around.

“We’ve got big characters in the team and that will help us get the result we need.”

Wolves fans get the rare chance to see Freddy Eastwood in action tonight - in what will most likely be a farewell appearance.

Eastwood is in a strong starting line up being sent by McCarthy over to Wrack’s testimonial.

It’s all-but admitted by McCarthy that Eastwood will be up for transfer in the summer.

There will be a chance to see another of the Molineux Academy’s much-talked about youngsters - Elliott Bennett from Telford - in the game.
